We don’t talk about Bruno, but we sure do love talking about all things Encanto (2021)! Disney’s new animated film is taking the spotlight as Disney prepares to welcome its newest nighttime theme park spectacular.
The Walt Disney Company is gearing up for its 100th Anniversary Celebration. Not to be confused with Walt Disney World Resort’s current 50th Anniversary celebration, the Disney company’s 100 years of magic will be celebrated with multiple festivities, with the heart of the experiences taking place at Disneyland Resort.
