Must See Image
Fall Under the Spell of New Disney Dreams

Almost no one bypasses the Happiest Place on Earth. There's so much to see and do, you won't know where to start. 

Adventures at Disneyland® now include the Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage, a fabulous overhaul of the park's classic submarine ride. The Pirates of the Caribbean ride has also gotten a fun new twist. Now, as you ride on the boats through the watery adventure, you see a dreadlocked Captain Jack Sparrow (keep your hand on your wallet and your wife) popping up unexpectedly throughout the ride. Visit planets and escape the Empire in a galaxy far, far away on Star Tours. Dance along with all your favorite Disney characters in the Soundsational Parade. And top it all off with Fantasmic or the incredible fireworks displays that change throughout the year.  It's all meant to make your day a little more magical.

Magic Numbers: Disneyland has welcomed more than 500 million guests since opening on July 17, 1955.
