Large Disneyland Leisure Returns for 2022!
After a 12 months of scaled-back leisure choices, Disneyland is planning massive issues for 2022. With a number of fan-favorite choices returning, subsequent 12 months is slated to be a return to large-scale leisure across the resort. Right here’s a take a look at what’s deliberate for the 12 months forward…
Major Road Electrical Parade
Disneyland teased the return of the Major Road Electrical Parade earlier this 12 months, nevertheless it wasn’t notably clear when it might be coming again. Whereas there isn’t any anticipated date for the parade’s begin date, it will likely be celebrating its fiftieth anniversary this 12 months. We’re at all times hoping for some updates and new additions of parade floats for this nighttime spectacular, however this basic parade is certain to carry individuals again into the parks to observe (if they will get a park reservation).
Fantasmic! & World of Shade
Because the parks reopened this 12 months, there was a extreme cutback in nighttime leisure. Whereas there have been projections and fireworks frequently, there was no Fantasmic! or World of Shade to maintain individuals engaged in night leisure. Nonetheless, someday subsequent 12 months each of these nighttime spectaculars might be returning.
Fantasmic!
Disney’s longest-running nighttime spectacular is about to return to the Rivers of America subsequent 12 months. Disneyland has solely confirmed that it will likely be happening once more beginning in 2022, with no particular date.
The present’s water display projectors underwent refurbishment over the previous few months. Now the subsequent step might be hiring and coaching performers. We’re trying ahead to seeing Mickey battle off the forces of evil as soon as once more!
World of Shade
Over at Disney California Journey, issues have been pretty quiet at evening. However hopefully, it received’t be quiet for for much longer. World of Shade might be making its return to the park someday subsequent 12 months.
Paradise Bay had been drained in an effort to full a significant refurb on the present. This gentle and water pageant is the first nighttime leisure within the park, so it’s been an enormous deal for there to be no actual nighttime spectacular proper now. Once more, there isn’t any particular begin date.
as of right now, the lagoon has been virtually fully refilled!
Disneyland Endlessly
Disneyland firework exhibits are at all times a spectacular finish to an evening within the park. Whereas Disney’s go-to present is mostly Mickey’s Combine Magic, the park has plans to carry again Disneyland Endlessly, the present from Disneyland’s sixtieth Diamond Anniversary. It is a fan-favorite present, and one we’re notably trying ahead to seeing once more.
Fantasyland Theater Leisure
Stay leisure has been slowly trickling again into the parks for the reason that reopening in April. One space that hasn’t absolutely reopened is the Fantasyland Theater, the place Mickey and the Magical Map performed earlier than the shutdown in 2019. Whereas that specific present has not been confirmed to be returning, Disneyland has introduced that there might be two leisure choices headed to the Fantasyland Theater within the close to future.
Have a good time Gospel
On choose days in February, the Fantasyland Theater will host dwell choir performances that commemorate the custom and heritage of Gospel music. Final 12 months, the Have a good time Gospel occasion happened on a single day in DCA’s Hyperion Theater. By transferring the Gospel choirs to Disneyland and unfold throughout a number of days it ought to give extra company a possibility to affix within the celebration of Gospel music and Black Historical past Month.
Story of the Lion King
Additionally headed to the Fantasyland Theater is one other DCA leisure providing: Story of the Lion King. This present is a human retelling of The Lion King informed by Storytellers of the Delight Lands and is a mixture of dwell music and dance.
Shifting this present to the Fantasyland Theater is a good thought— and one which we had steered throughout its debut run in 2019. Its unique location was out within the unshaded space of Paradise Bay and although the present is enjoyable, many company have been unable to observe as a result of inhospitable situations of warmth and an absence of shade. We actually hope that individuals will take time to observe this charming present beginning subsequent spring.
What’s Nonetheless Lacking?
Though all this leisure headed again to the Disneyland Resort is nice information, there’s nonetheless some main choices that haven’t been introduced. Whereas the Fantasyland Theater is the place Mickey and the Magical Map happened, it was not included within the lineup of returning leisure. That might imply that it’s completely canceled and {that a} main new manufacturing is within the works (maybe along side the opening of Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway).
Additionally lacking from Fantasyland is the Tangled present, storytelling, and swing dancing within the Royal Theatre. Proper now, that space is used for princess picture alternatives. There’s no telling when or if these specific leisure choices might be returning.
Moreover, when Frozen closed at DCA, solid have been informed it was a everlasting closure and to not anticipate it to reopen when the parks finally did.
Though Major Road Electrical Parade was introduced to be returning, nothing was talked about about its non secular successor, Paint the Night time Parade. It debuted at Disneyland in the course of the sixtieth anniversary in 2015 and was most not too long ago carried out in 2018 with the opening of Pixar Pier. It’s a bit uncommon that Disney would announce a lot coming back from the sixtieth anniversary however not point out something about this specific parade.
However what we’re most shocked was not introduced was Disneyland’s latest parade that ran for lower than a month, Magic Occurs. The parade debuted in February 2019 and when the parks closed for over a 12 months, the present was not introduced again.
We hope that it makes an look subsequent 12 months, nevertheless it has not been confirmed but. Within the meantime, you’ll be able to make a journey down reminiscence lane with our article about Magic Occurs under:
