New 70th Anniversary Guided Tour Announced

Disneyland Main Street Train Station

Disneyland has announced A Story of Celebration: 70th Anniversary Guided Tour, a 2-hour walking tour that will “explore the rich heritage of Disneyland park, from opening day attractions to the latest innovations.” Guests will visit iconic locations around the park and hear about Walt Disney's vision and how it has grown over the years. Bookings for this new tour will be available on the Disneyland website starting April 24, 2025.

Interactive World of Color Voting

Disneyland also announced an interesting way for guests to interact with the new “World of Color Happiness!” show. As Disney previously shared, this new show will be hosted by Joy and the other Emotions from Inside Out and Inside Out 2.

Ahead of the first show of the evening, guests in Disney California Adventure will be able to vote on the Disneyland app for one of four emotions (Sadness, Anger, Disgust, or Envy) to have them featured in special scenes throughout both of the day's shows. This looks like an interesting way to keep guests engaged and add some fun variety from show to show.
