Disneyland Resort 2026-27: What's New, Coming and Events

Anaheim, CA — Disneyland Resort is Disneyland Park, which opened July 17, 1955, and Disney California Adventure, with three hotels and the Downtown Disney District on about 500 acres.

In a Nutshell

Anaheim’s City Council gave DisneylandForward its final approval on May 7, 2024, clearing new theme park, hotel, entertainment and retail development around the resort’s existing parks, and Disney says it will invest at least $1.9 billion in the first 10 years. The next new rides are two Avengers Campus attractions in 2028 that double the size of the land, and Disney has also announced a Coco attraction, an Avatar-themed area and a reimagined Tomorrowland, with no dates yet (my story on the order of the builds). The resort’s 70th anniversary celebration ended Aug. 9, 2026, and 2027 brings back Remember… Dreams Come True, the original World of Color and the Magic Happens parade.
