Classic, Family-Friendly Attractions

Disneyland

1 – Snow White’s Enchanted Wish

Snow White’s Enchanted Wish, in Fantasyland, has been reimagined with new magic in storytelling. Guests will celebrate this timeless fairytale with new scenes throughout the experience including a dancing figure of Snow White joining the dwarfs in their cottage as the scent of a pie baking wafts through the air. Vibrant new shadow projections show the dwarfs as they happily march off to the mine singing “Heigh Ho.” New lighting, glittering jewels and shimmering effects make the mine sparkle, and a new magic mirror casts its spell. Ultimately, Snow White awakens to joyfully ride off with her Prince into a golden sunset.

2 – Mad Tea Party

Guests join the iconic Mad Tea Party in oversized teacups, spinning under a canopy of colorful lanterns through a whimsical Wonderland party in Fantasyland.

3 – King Arthur Carrousel

Beneath the vibrant medieval tent in Fantasyland, guests can ride one of 68 regal steeds or take a seat on the chariot on King Arthur Carrousel, which has been fancifully refurbished. The carrousel was built in 1922 and was one of the original attractions when Disneyland opened in 1955. Today, it is adorned with a new parchment white canopy, topped with 14 karat gold leafing around its crown and along the canopy edges, with patterns inspired by King Arthur’s family crest. Each of the 68 ornately hand-carved wooden horses are antiques, dating back more than 90 years. The horses have been freshly repainted by hand, using 30 different colors throughout the carrousel, and no two horses are alike.

On the enchanting Peter Pan’s Flight, guests soar high over London on a pirate ship to Never Land with the help of a little pixie dust.

5 – Pirates of the Caribbean

All set on waterways: Pirates of the Caribbean is a swashbuckling cruise through the seas plagued by scoundrels; the Mark Twain Riverboat is a cruise through the Rivers of America aboard a majestic 19thcentury paddle boat, and “it’s a small world” is a whimsical canal ride and song-filled journey around the globe.

6 – Haunted Mansion

Gloomy Doom Buggies take “foolish mortals” on a spooky tour of the Haunted Mansion, an eerie house with 999 happy haunts and there is always room for one more… The ghosts have been busy updating a few elements in and around the estate. Outside they have done some remodeling with new landscaping for their dearly departed pets, representing their stories from beyond the grave, such as roses planted around Rosie the Pig and plants that resemble water lilies around the frog. Inside, a keen eye will notice a few dastardly design elements in the portrait hallway. One of the Mansion’s original portraits known as “April to December” once again graces the hallway, where a lovely young woman ages right before guests’ eyes.

7 – The Little Mermaid ~ Ariel’s Undersea Adventure

During The Little Mermaid ~ Ariel’s Undersea Adventure, guests float away on clam-mobiles for a musical adventure awash with scenes from the animated Disney classic, “The Little Mermaid.”

8 – Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind

Inspired by the Disney and Pixar film, “Inside Out,” Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind invites guests to hop aboard a Memory Mover to fly in a circle through the workplace of Riley’s emotions; Joy and Sadness, to name a few.

Picturesque scenery includes flights over the Swiss Alps, Australia’s Sydney Harbour, the Great Wall of China, the Great Pyramids of Egypt, the Eiffel Tower and more.

12 and 13 – Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run

On the planet of Batuu at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance is an ambitious, advanced and immersive attraction. Guests board a full-size transport shuttle before they are captured by a Star Destroyer and find themselves in the middle of a climactic battle between the dark side of the First Order and the light side of the Resistance, including BB-8 and Rey. The harrowing adventure blurs the lines between fantasy and reality on a scale never seen before in a Disney attraction. Adventurers can also embark on a thrilling interactive mission on Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, where every role – pilot, engineer and gunner – is crucial in this daring flight.

Upon reopening, Disneyland will continue to utilize a virtual queue system for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance.* This virtual queue is only accessible via the Disneyland mobile app, and guests may only experience the attraction by joining the virtual queue. Distribution times for virtual queue enrollment will be twice daily, one in the morning, and one later in the day. Specific times and details will be shared at a later date on Disneyland.com.
