While there are many offerings on the docket, the “sweetest” of them all is Sweethearts’ Nite, part of the Disneyland After Dark event series.

Disneyland invites guests to join in for “an after-hours soirée bursting with heartfelt fun:”

• A royal cavalcade will make its way through Disneyland Park, offering an enchanting gathering of some of Disney’s favorite royals, transported by equally splendid equines.
• Near “it’s a small world,” dance along with princesses, princes, and Disney characters at the evening’s royal ball.
• Stitch and Angel will host their very own dance party at the stage in Tomorrowland. Join them throughout the night to dance and sing to some awesome beats!

• Throughout the park, unique photo backdrops will offer you an opportunity to step inside some of Disney’s iconic scenes of love and friendship, including “Lady and the Tramp,” “Tangled,” “Sleeping Beauty,” “Aladdin,” and more.

• Divine lighting, fabulous projections, and the music of Disney love songs create the ultimate atmosphere for romance, friendship, and family throughout the park.
• Enjoy many sweet treats to indulge in and themed savory items available throughout the park, created especially for Sweethearts’ Nite. New offerings will include the shortbread cookie churro with strawberry cheesecake dipping sauce and the Café Daisy fried heart-shaped ravioli, plus some returning and reimagined favorites like the Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe Chocolate & Strawberry-stuffed croissant. 

• Plus, specialty menu items will also be available at Plaza Inn, Cafe Orleans, River Belle Terrace, and Carnation Café, subject to availability. Reservations are recommended and can be booked online soon. Keep your eyes on Disneyland.com/Dining.

A limited number of Disneyland After Dark: Sweethearts’ Nite tickets will go on pre-sale for Magic Key holders beginning December 12, 2023 (no earlier than 9:00 a.m. PT) on Disneyland.com. On December 14, 2023 (no earlier than 9:00 a.m. PT), tickets will go on sale to the general public and are subject to availability.

Tickets for the event start at $139 per person. Event tickets include admission to Disneyland Park as early as 6:00 p.m. on the night of the event. This gives guests an extra three hours to enjoy the park before the event, which begins at 9:00 p.m.

Guests entering at 6:00 p.m. or later on the night of the event do not need a theme park reservation to attend so long as their event ticket is valid on that date.

Parking fees are not included in the ticket price.
