Snow on Sleeping Beauty Castle during a Halloween heatwave… The holidays are officially muscling into October at the Disneyland Resort, and the castle’s turrets are blanketed in twinkling white snow… just in time for the taping of Disney’s Christmas Parade.
Between the parks, the Esplanade is being torn up and rebuilt. In Fantasyland, the Mad Tea Party is spinning again with a new look. In Downtown Disney, construction has finally gone vertical at the long-awaited steakhouse and BBQ restaurant.
Plus: a cast member rally on the eve of parade season, a late-night scare in the Esplanade, refurbishment news, merch deals, and if you needed more than snowy rooftops to let you know that the holidays are on the way, we have the schedule for candy cane distribution in both parks! Here’s what you need to know from the happiest place on Earth.

When Holidays Collide
We expect it inside Haunted Mansion Holiday, but it’s always a bit jarring when Christmas decor appears elsewhere in the parks before Halloween, but here we are.
Two weeks before October 31, we spotted snowcapped turrets on Sleeping Beauty Castle, creating a holiday mash-up situation in the hub.

The most likely reason for the early flurries is that Disney’s holiday special is expected to film soon (we’ve seen October 23-26 as potential filming dates but those are not confirmed).
In the past, the areas in front of the castle and Small World have had stages set up for holiday performances. But shoot locations and stars could show up just about anywhere.
New Location for Viva Navidad
In other holiday news one of our all-time favorite Disney street shows, Viva Navidad, will be making a move this year. Construction for the Coco attraction will cause the show to move to the Hollywood Boulevard corridor beginning November 13. But that’s good news to us as there’s much more shade in the new location and more space for guests to get a good view of this charming show.
They’re Back… Soon Enough!
Disneyland’s famous candy canes will return on select dates starting November 27 through December 25 (while supplies last).
This year, wristbands will be distributed for a chance to purchase the limited number of candy canes available each day (candy canes are not available through mobile order). And that means you’ll want to be at the park before opening and get right in line at the candy shop in hopes of scoring a wristband, with a time to return. There’s also a limit of one candy cane per guest per day and no discounts apply.
The hand-pulled holiday treats mostly alternate between Candy Palace in Disneyland Park and Trolley Treats in California Adventure with overlap on Dec 22nd and 24th this year (our tip, prioritize Trolley Treats if you can, lines there tend to be much shorter than on Disneyland days):
- Candy Palace – November 27 & 30; December 2, 7, 9, 14, 16, 22, 24 & 25
- Trolley Treats – November 28 & 29; December 1, 6, 8, 13, 15, 20, 22 & 24

Ongoing Labor Dispute
We’ve been reporting for some time that Disneyland Resort performers have been trying to negotiate a fair contract with The Walt Disney Company. On October 17, Cast Members who portray characters and perform in parades protested Disney’s unwillingness to settle a first contract. Their rally was held on the corner of Harbor Blvd. and W. Katella Ave.
The timing is particularly noteworthy as Disneyland’s “A Christmas Fantasy Parade” is set to return in less than a month, along with Mickey’s Happy Holidays cavalcade in California Adventure (all starting on November 13). Disney skirts the union with some of their holiday performers by hiring 3rd party companies to produce some entertainment, such as Viva Navidad.
Two years ago, 1,700 Cast Members in the characters and parades departments voted to join the Actors’ Equity Association, the labor union that represents professional actors and stage managers. Since then, Disney has delayed contract talks, and while there has been some progress related to health and safety issues, the company has proposed eliminating paid parental leave and reducing personal time off (PTO). Wage offers have also been low, with Disney presenting a 0% wage increase, despite approximate 3.7% annual inflation in Orange County.
“The message…at our rally [was] that, despite Disney’s actions to date, we remain willing and able to bargain with the company to reach a fair contract for the character and parades workers who are the public face of Disneyland and who make a visit to the park rewarding,” said Equity’s Executive Director Al Vincent Jr.
Most of the Disneyland workforce is unionized, with those working in characters and parades being a notable exception until they formed their union in 2024.
Penny-Shaped Slug For Your Thoughts
We’ve been telling you that Disneyland is phasing out the pressed penny machines (most likely due to the fact that the U.S. is no longer making pennies), but while some machines have apparently replaced the copper coins with blank slugs, others have traded out the nostalgic (and affordable) souvenirs for blind box pins or collectible medallions.
The conversion is already complete at some locations. One former penny press location we spotted is now a touchscreen “Collectible Medallions” machine selling medallions for $10 each, or all four for $35. A big LED screen doesn’t look quite right in Main Street’s Penny Arcade.
What do you think? Should the pressed penny machines stay (even if they no longer press actual pennies) or would you rather see pins or medallions take their place in the parks?
Constructionland
Some good… and some dramatic… news in this week’s construction roundup.
Downtown Disney
Arthur & Sons and Pearl’s go vertical
Steel columns are now rising above the construction walls at this long-running Downtown Disney restaurant project, and the wall art lets you know what’s on the way: the steakhouse is Arthur & Sons Steak & Bourbon, and the barbecue joint is Pearl’s Roadside BBQ, promising “Quality ‘Que & Cocktails” and, optimistically, “NOW WE CAN EAT”… though it will be quite some time before you can actually eat here. Vertical steel is a welcome sight on a project that has spent well over two years with little going on. Tortilla Jo’s completely shut down way back in April of 2024!
The Wookiee has left the building
Over at the Lego store, one of the new exterior display cases has lost a resident. The Chewbacca figure riding an AT-ST walker has disappeared… as has the thick yellow Lego border around the scene.
To remind you, this is what it looked like before Chewie took a coffee break.
Esplanade
The east side of the esplanade looks nothing like it did a month ago. 6 of the 8 ticket booths have been completely demolished. Lucky for this Update, the Santa Ana winds caused the park to roll up the scrims on the fences, giving us an unobstructed look at the work.
Looking toward Harbor Blvd from the Esplanade, all 4 booths on this side are now gone.
Just a tiny bit of foundation remained on Friday with workers rapidly removing all the concrete in the area.
Where two of the booths stood, framing for new security tents is already going up. Once those are in, they’ll take down the old green tents further behind them to make room for bridge construction over Harbor Blvd. That bridge will ultimately connect to a new parking structure as well.
The old pavement spiral feature near the future Porto’s has also been scooped clean out of the ground. Heavy equipment is grading dirt where it sat, and guests are squeezing through a tight walkway between the work zone and the bakery construction walls.
There’s also concrete work going on between the ESPN building and Star Wars Trading Post (the former location of the temporary Earl of Sandwich trailer). All of this concrete was ripped up a week ago and has been mostly completed at this point.
Disneyland
Walls are down around Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters, where exterior work has wrapped up (but not looking great). The plain white walls and broken light tube on the front of the building look blah… blah… bland.
and Indiana Jones Adventure is closed for a refurb that we hope will bring more restored effects to the attraction.
The teacups are spinning again. Mad Tea Party has reopened with a brand-new wait time sign shaped like the Mad Hatter’s hat, topped with the Hatter himself and the March Hare, and the ride’s lanterns look different as well. Perhaps made from a new material, but definitely darker than the previous pastels.
New colors above, old colors below.
Walls are up around the new landscaping in front of Tiana’s Palace, perhaps to add more seating by carving into the garden.
And framing for the new Hungry Bear seating area on the lower level is also taking shape, with trees and planters now in place.
Railings are already going in, so this project shouldn’t take too much longer.
California Adventure
Steel framework keeps rising on the Avengers Campus expansion, now clearly visible all the way into Cars Land… hmmmm… we’re not sure that’s good news after all.
But it is impressive to see a giant building which will hold two new attractions next year.
Did you spot the hidden Mickeys in the steel beams above?
And the new beer kiosk near the parade route is taking shape behind its scrims.
Disneyland Refurbishment Calendar
The refurbishment calendar is light at the moment, but there are a few notable updates, with Indiana Jones Adventure posting a return date this week and Tomorrowland’s Skyline Terrace pushing back its expected reopening date to late January.
Currently Under Refurbishment
- Chiller at Paradise Park: July 26-TBA
- Indiana Jones Adventure: September 8-October 22

- Redwood Creek Challenge Trail ~ Holiday Switch Over: November 1-12
Close Call
Two suspicious bags were left near the bus roundabout at the east side of the esplanade at about 9:30 p.m. last Monday night. The roundabout was blocked off and the esplanade was cleared while an explosives team and bomb-sniffing dogs responded to the scene.
According to Anaheim Police Department, officers found a satchel-style bag with wires protruding from it and a duct-taped nylon bag that appeared to have sharp objects sticking out; however, the satchel only contained marbles and the nylon bag contained random items, including Disney crowns with pointed edges.
Officials determined the items posed no threat at 11:45 p.m., but the incident definitely created problems for guests leaving the parks who were diverted backstage to exit through Downtown Disney.
This & That
MiceChat Live @ Five x Two
We have TWO live park videos for you this week. Because Dusty was busy on Thursday, Mike and Derrick took us on a tour of the new Animation Courtyard in Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World near park closing… offering beautiful nighttime views.
And on Friday, Dusty and Suzanne took us to Disneyland. It was a scorching 95º day, but they still managed to smile their way through the parks to look at SNOW on the castle, the new look of the Mad Tea Party, long lines at Pirates of the Caribbean, and the massive changes taking shape in the Esplanade between the parks.
Blustery Days
The weather last week was warm and windy. Certainly not in line with the snowcapped castle (or Halloween for that matter!)… Plus, the Santa Ana winds are whipping up fires in the region. Keep an eye on your weather app prior to your visit in the coming weeks.
And while the winds allowed us to get a better look at some of the construction, they also caused umbrellas to be strapped closed in certain spots, and can cause fireworks cancelations as well.
This poor Cast Member had to hold on tight to his balloons as they whipped back and forth.
Security Checkpoint Changeup
On Friday, the original Downtown Disney security checkpoint on the west side was closed, with guests being redirected to the nearby Disneyland Hotel security entrance. We asked the reason for the closure and were told it was likely due to remodeling, but other guests were told it was due to the high winds. We saw cast members carting tables and plexiglass dividers away from the zone mid-morning, as well as the tarps being folded up, so we’re leaning toward this being wind related. Decisions like this aren’t usually made after the park opens for the day… unless there’s a significant reason… such as high winds.
A single security guard was manually checking bags for cast members at the closed checkpoint. Regardless of the reason, if you find this gate closed upon arrival, the nearby Disneyland Hotel entrance is your best way in for now.
ESPN Zone
In the ongoing saga of the former ESPN Zone building, the only current resident is Lululemon. We’d previously been told additional vendors would be added (at one point, executives of Loungefly/Funco were interested), but at the moment, the space is being used as a hospitality training center for cast members.
We’re told that situation may be temporary and doesn’t mean new shops or experiences won’t come to this building in the future, so watch this space.

Avengers Campus Pizza, The Sequel
Last Monday, we told you that the Shawarma Cart near the Hyperion Theater in Avengers Campus is no longer selling Shawarma, but instead, it’s serving slices of NY pizza. Now, we have photos. 😬
There’s nothing quite like a pizza that’s been cooked elsewhere and then left under a heat lamp out in a theme park vending cart to really satisfy you.
New Taco at Salt & Straw
On October 16, Salt & Straw in Downtown Disney debuted the Strawberry Pretzel Cheesecake Tacolate, the first new tacolate flavor since the Cinnamon Ancho Tacolate (a collaboration with Taco Bell), which sold out immediately during its launch weekend last fall.
The new Strawberry Pretzel Cheesecake Tacolate features a hand-pressed waffle cone taco shell, filled with strawberry ice cream, dipped in a cream cheese white chocolate shell, and sprinkled with crushed pretzels. The sweet treats will be served with a vanilla bean cheesecake sauce.
Both the Cinnamon Ancho Tacolate and the new Strawberry Pretzel Cheesecake Tacolate are currently available. Salt & Straw is running a “Tacolate Tuesday” promotion for the rest of October, where guests can buy one Tacolate and enjoy a second one for free… You now know where we will be on Tuesday!
Halloween Merch Deals
If your Halloween plans run to Disney merch, the parks are already marking some Halloween merchandise down by 30 or 40 percent. The discounts were spotted on signage around the resort, so late planners are in luck this year.
The History & Mystery of Walt Disney’s Storybook Mansion
If you’ve ever wondered what Walt Disney’s life looked like before Disneyland, MiceChat’s Dusty Sage offers you a rare opportunity to step inside one of the places where much of that story unfolded.
Daytime History Tours
High in the Hollywood Hills sits the storybook-style home Walt Disney built in 1932, during one of the most important periods of his life and career. Walt and Lillian raised their daughters here, entertained friends and colleagues, and watched the Disney studio grow from an ambitious little operation into something much bigger.
The house is privately owned and rarely open to the public, which makes these tours a particularly unusual chance to explore Walt’s world beyond the parks and studio.
The approximately 90-minute guided tour includes both the interior and exterior of Walt’s former home, including his private screening room and the tiny Seven Dwarfs Cottage, the backyard playhouse Walt gave his daughters in 1937.
It’s one thing to read about this chapter of Walt’s life. It’s another to stand in the rooms where some of it actually happened.

Next MiceChat Adventure: Pacific Coast & Alaska Back-to-Back
Ready for another MiceChat adventure? In May 2027, we’re heading north aboard the Disney Wonder for two cruises that can be booked separately or combined into one rather spectacular back-to-back trip.
The first leg sails from San Diego to Vancouver May 6 – 10, 2027. Then, without changing ships, the Wonder heads into Alaska from May 10 – 17, visiting the Stikine Icecap, Skagway, Juneau, and Ketchikan before returning to Vancouver.
Do one cruise or do both. Many of us are booking the same stateroom for the full 11-night journey, which means no packing up between sailings.
If you’ve never sailed Alaska, this is a very different Disney cruise experience. The scenery is the main attraction, with mountains, glaciers, wildlife, and historic port towns unfolding right outside the ship.
And traveling with MiceChat adds another layer to the trip. We’ll have our own group activities, plenty of familiar Disney fans to explore with, and a good chance that whoever ends up at your dinner table already understands why you have strong opinions about Pirates of the Caribbean.
Bookings for the MiceChat group are being handled by Teresa Cory at [email protected]. Booking through Teresa is required to receive the group rates and participate in the MiceChat activities.
Come sail to adventure with us!

Let’s Hear From You!
With snow falling on Sleeping Beauty Castle before Halloween has even arrived, we have to ask: are you thrilled to see the holidays arrive early, or do you wish Christmas would wait its turn? And what do you think of the Mad Tea Party’s new look?
Let us know in the comments below!
Once again, Scrooge McDuck is in charge of contract negotiations with the performers union. Best of luck to all of them, because they will need it!
Just wondering when, or if, the copious amounts of construction throughout the resort will subside to a barely noticeable level. In all the earlier years of our visits to D I cannot recall the same level of construction disruption going on that takes away the magical feelings of being there. I suspect that it will be decades before that happens because we’ll then be “treated” to DisneylandForward. So sad, because that’s what the little kids noticed the most about recent visits.
Putting new ride construction to one side, all other construction is there to increase Disney’s profits, so no, it will never stop.
Here’s the good news/bad news… Due to DisneylandForward, Disney is going to be in a near constant state of change for many years to come. Here’s how the dominos are likely to fall… The new parking structure frees up the Toy Story Lot. The Toy Story Lot becomes a new shoppin, hotel and entertainment zone. That frees up some hotel and shopping space and the 3rd park can finally be built on the far west end of the resort (around) the hotels. Throughout all of this, the new zoning changes allow Disney to reshape the current public and backstage spaces… and the new administrative campus Disney just purchased offsite will allow some additional attraction space at both Disneyland and California Adventure. This is a VERY long range timeline… SO… construction, constructon, construction as far as the eye can see. But, most of that will likely be good news once they are complete.
Yea Disney is kind of caught in a trolly problem scenario here. Either there is no visible construction going on and the resort remains stagnant, or there is visible construction and the resort can build into the future.
With Disneyland in particular, there truly is no space to hide construction projects or reroute guests. It’s going to be visible for a while, but that means we will get some, hopefully, cool future projects out of it.
And being a not so little kid during the construction of DCA and DTD, I barely remember that crazy construction around the resort and it was pretty much excitement and not “wow this is impacting my experience and memories”
Those $10 medallions can to to hell. The pennies were a great, affordable, souvenir for kids. Swap it out for a metal slug, and let kids keep collecting.
When the park turns 75, will they have 75 collectible medallions? Collect ’em all folks!
Ugh, Downtown Disney gets worse every time we visit. All of the food there is obnoxiously expensive and takes forever; the shops are all just as expensive and aimed at lifestyles far different from mine (who wants to buy LuLulemon workout gear at Disneyland?).
There was a time when the kids would love to go shopping at DD by themselves, but there’s almost nothing there anymore that appeals to them. DD is the place we walk through because we have to, and not one thing more. Honestly, it’s just a nuisance at this point, an ugly, unaesthetic outdoor luxury mall.
That’s what I noticed as well. I guess they figure the suckers that pay the upcharge LL are just as gullible to pay for overpriced Swanson’s frozen meals and Look At Me fashionware of the rich and famous.
My main concern about Downtown Disney is they’ve wrung all the whimsy and joy out of it. It’s like they are purposely trying to make it look like any strip mall you could find in any city. Disney was always unique by delivering what you couldn’t get elsewhere. Somewhere along the line, they’ve lost that creative spark for Downtown Disney.
I don’t think there is a loss of the “creative spark”, instead in the mid to late 90s when Disney was building DTD, they leaned into the design trend of Postmodernism that influenced a ton of commercial building at the time. Considering a lot of the users here probably grew up and went to the resort around this time, we grew to love this design style.
Now when Disney wanted to redo DTD to make it relevant to the audience of today, they are leaning into 2 creative sparks: Warm Minimalism (again like the 90s, this is the extremely popular commercial building practice today) and Retrofuturism/Disney History (using warm minimalism to influence WoD into an animation ink and paint place or using Disneys strong Mid-Century Modern design language of the 1940s-60s to influence the new spaces on the west side of DTD and the new Hotel tower).
Again Dusty, sometimes I think you take a small nitpick you have and turn it into this fake outrage that you spun out into “lost that creative spark”. A disagreeance in the design language used is not a lost spark. There is still character in whimsy within their new designs, it’s just not bold and gaudy like the 90s.
The Postmodernism design of Downtown Disney in the 90s is actually a pretty far stray from the original architecture that was around before the 90s. Disney is a well known source of inspiration for Mid Century Modernism so leaning back into that is actually returning to original Disney, and was the spark they used to center their design language around.
I’m still so mad about the way the Monday night esplinade closure was handled. No explanation just the waving flashlights through the backstage. We kept asking how to get to our hotel on Harbor. All anybody said, if anybody said anything at all, was you are being rerouted through downtown Disney. We complied, thinking surely they didn’t mean all the way through Downtown Disney ejecting us on to the opposite side of the park with nothing but a 2 mile hike ahead of us. But sure enough, the waving flashlights got fewer and fewer until we were out on Disney Way. No shuttles, no help, just one employee suggesting we call an Uber if we didn’t like that. No indication that it was serious, but then some indications that it might have been too serious to return to our hotel.
Thank you for sharing your on-the-spot view of the incident.
Unfortunately, that’s how nearly all emergencies are handled by Disney. Because they don’t have time to inform each guest and don’t want to create panic by announcing a potential threat, they just start yelling and herding guests as quickly as they can. Of course, that’s horrible for the guest… but likely the most expedient way for Disney to get people out of the park.
The big problem in all of this is that the guest doesn’t understand why they are being evacuated or what areas to avoid and why. Disney is very secretive of all emergencies, inside or outside of the parks. It’s always a wall of cast members pointing and screaming with very little information being shared. It might be good for Disney, but it’s horrible for guests.
I don’t think their secrecy plan is working. Nobody was stampeding or anything but there was talk of an active shooter that night. The panic was quite real, just quiet. A little truth would have gone a long way. Even a cast member on Wednesday was repeating the active shooter rumor on Wednesday after we had seen the news reports, though she may have been trying to make us feel better about our midnight walking tour of Anaheim’s open air residences. After so many years in public education, I’m not really scared of a little bomb threat now and then, but I felt pretty unsafe having been kicked out the gate like that knowing that whatever information I had was P.R. B.S.
I usually don’t defend Disney on here but what are they supposed to do in a situation like this? We have an election coming up, Disney has been a target in the past as coverage would be worldwide if something did happen. There is literally no where to herd 10k-20k + people anywhere but established walk ways AWAY from a potential threat.
Same when there was a car fire in the parking garage …. You will not be able to leave and it is what it is. it’s very inconvenient but “in the moment” those CMs could be genuinely scared for their safety yet they are there to help YOU. Imagine if they thought hey I’m not waiting around for a bomb to go off I’m going home.
Yeah, it was an emergency, I get it. Except it wasn’t, but they thought it was…fine. But, I don’t think it is an unreasonable expectation to have somebody informed enough to say, your hotel on Harbor is unaffected. Cuz I mean what if it wasn’t? I also don’t think it’s unreasonable to have a shuttle available. I also think it’s just plain rude when we specifically asked about how to get back to our hotel to say, “you’re being rerouted through Downtown Disney” leaving off the phrase “So you’re going to have to walk or find transportation to the other side of the park and yes it’s about two miles.” Even the last cast member at the gate suggested we call an Uber was unwilling to admit that. There was plenty they could have done and I don’t know why everybody acts like I’m being unreasonable for thinking they should have done it.
Plan A is to move guests efficiently and safely out of impacted areas without a stampede or panic probably by giving as little information as possible. It worked and there’s an inconvenience to that.
Disney is surprisingly ridged and the logistics of moving trams/shuttles and buses to/from areas not designed for that purpose would probably make traffic much worse for all the cars exiting from the garages.
So your mad at disney for:
Like, dude, you are insanely unreasonable lmfao. They did everything they could possibly do in that moment that mattered: Keep guests safe, keep guests calm, and get them out of possible danger. So yes it’s unreasonable for you to expect a CM who is trying to reroute people away from a BOMB THREAT to understand the needs of thousands of guests and their plans to get back to rooms or cars that are ALL OVER ANAHEIM.
It’s a bad situation, and you are up in arms that you were inconvenienced by a bomb threat lmfao.
While I don’t mind the snow as much (as long as it is only snow) I think it’s crazy that the Parade is shot so early. I still remember running into the filming of it in 2004 in early December.
I’m not thrilled with a mid-October snowfall… particularly when it’s 90º+ outside… Thankfully that’s the only Christmas decor outside of the stores (which have plenty of Christmas already on the shelves).
I think I prefer the more Wonderland pastel colors on the Teacups vs the new jewl tones.
The new jewel tone lamps look fine by themselves. But they no longer match the teacups below them. It just feels a bit mismatched.
