There are a lot of exciting things happening right now at Disneyland Resort, and even more events are being announced for the future. Guests visiting Disneyland this holiday season can experience a ton of holiday food — including the Festival of Holidays at California Adventure — as well as Believe…In Holiday Magic Fireworks and A Christmas Fantasy Parade. Disney has also announced that the beloved “it’s a small world” Holiday will be reopening on December 5 after a massive flood delayed the ride’s opening.

The holidays at Disneyland Resort will end on January 9 and less than two weeks later, beginning January 21, Disney California Adventure Park will begin to celebrate Lunar New Year! Every year, food booths line the road across from Pixar Pier and offer delicious foods from a variety of Asian countries. Unfortunately, the Lunar New Year was not able to happen in 2021 as the theme park was shut down.
