I really did not need another reason to plan a trip to Disneyland. However, I just got two more reasons! Disneyland After Dark brings two more themed “nites” to Disneyland Resort this spring.
That’s right, fashionistas! There is even more fun coming to Disneyland Resort this spring! Returning are Disneyland After Dark: Throwback Nite and Disneyland After Dark: Star Wars Nite. During these popular after-hours events, Guests can enjoy themed entertainment, their favorite Disney characters, special photo opportunities, event-ready menu items, merchandise, and more!
Disneyland After Dark events begin with a three-hour pre-party mix-in from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. PT at Disneyland park. Then, the private party begins! From 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. PT, Guests can ride some popular attractions after regular park hours! Plus, Guests will receive unlimited digital downloads of Disney PhotoPass photos taken during the party, along with commemorative keepsakes including a souvenir credential and event guide map.
Disneyland After Dark Events
Throwback Nite
April 18 & 20, 2023, at Disneyland Park
Get ready for a blast from the past! Retro vibes rules at the Throwback Nite after-hours party. This event is inspired by the 50s and 60s. You know, the good old days! Take a trip down memory lane to relive Disney’s classic past with music and entertainment that pay tribute to the first decade of Disneyland park. Mickey Mouse and his friends will sport retro outfits, along with visits from some nostalgic characters, which will make for great photo moments!
Throwback Nite is like Dapper Day, but totally elevated! Make sure to wear your favorite vintage (or vintage inspired look). I just love dressing for a theme, don’t you?!
Here are some additional highlights of what you’ll enjoy:
- Gaze upon “Fantasy in the Sky,” a nighttime spectacular giving a nod to the same-named fireworks display that first illuminated the night in Disneyland park in 1957!
- Dance your way around Disneyland park with bands and deejays inspired by the era.
- Snack like it’s 1955 with treats that are inspired by the park’s early days, made once again just for this event!
