If you 've never ridden these attractions at night, you 're missing some of the best parts of Disneyland.
As a Disneyland local who 's been visiting the resort 's two theme parks for over 35 years now, I tell everyone that nighttime is the best time to experience the attractions. Sure, you can speed-walk to multiple rides if you rope drop early in the morning but in my opinion, there 's simply something special about Disneyland at night.

I suspect that everyone has faced this dilemma at some point. You solve one problem, only to see your solution create another one.
Disney may have done that with its Lightning Lane system, which replaced Fastpasses after the pandemic lockdowns. Fastpass was Disney 's attempt to address one of its most frequent guest complaints long wait times in the parks. But each time Disney tries to address that problem, it seems to create another one.

As much as amusement parks might try to avoid ride shutdowns, they are an inevitable part of the experience. Whether it 's because of necessary maintenance and ride refurbishment, or due to capacity concerns, sometimes a ride closure is just unavoidable. However, in many other cases, ride closures occur for entirely preventable reasons. Recent data just released by Disneyland showed a three percent increase in preventable ride shutdowns due to guest behavior this

I 'll be honest. When I first heard about the Bluey-themed snacks at Troubadour Tavern in Disneyland, I expected them to be cute.

Over the years, certain filmmakers have developed cults of personality stemming from their taste in interiors (just take Nancy Meyers and Sofia Coppola). But Walt Disney stands alone in the sheer number of movie interiors he created for his fans to actually enter. Starting with Disneyland in Anaheim, park-goers have been able to step inside Sleeping Beauty 's Castle, Alice 's Wonderland, and Monsters Inc. 's offices for decades.
