To celebrate the first-time Blu-Ray release of Peter Pan and Limited Time Magic, Disneyland Annual Passholders have the opportunity to attend a screening of Peter Pan inside the Main Street Opera House. This special opportunity also comes with an added benefit, access to select Fantasyland attractions for an additional two hours after Disneyland park closes.
In recent weeks, Disneyland has held Annual Passholder screenings of both Lady and the Tramp and Mulan, however the previous screenings were held over several days and the movies were typically shown in the evenings. The Peter Pan and Fantasyland extra hours event will be held one day only, Wednesday, February 27, 2013. There will be five screenings of Peter Pan throughout the day at 11 a.m., 1 p.m., 3 p.m., 5 p.m., and 7 p.m.
Disneyland Park will close at 8 p.m. to regular guests while select Fantasyland attractions will remain open to registered Annual Passholders until 10 p.m. Those in attendance will have access to the following attractions:
Annual Passholders must register, in person, on the day of the event. Registration will take place in front of the Main Street Opera house beginning at 10 a.m. All guests must present a valid Annual Passport to register. Once registered, guests will receive a wristband that will permit entry to the movie screening, as well as to the open Fantasyland attractions.
The Main Street Opera House will open 15 minutes prior to each screening time. Disney recommends guests park in either the Mickey and Friends Parking Structure or the Toy Story Parking Lot. Trams and shuttles to those lots will continue to operate until 11 p.m., all other trams and shuttles will end service at their regularly scheduled time.
Because the screenings of Peter Pan are being presented throughout the day, guests should be aware that Voices of Liberty and Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln will not be shown. Also, Annual Passholders who are planning on attending both the movie screening and the extra Fantasyland hours should consider avoiding the 7 p.m. showing of Peter Pan. The movie has a running time of 78-minutes, which will cut approximately 30-minutes into the extra Fantasyland hours event.
Limited Time Magic continues at the Disneyland Resort with Dapper Dans - the "Original Boy Band". From Monday, February 25 through Sunday, March 3, 2013, the traditional Main Street quartet, the Dapper Dans, will perform popular 'boy band' songs in the group's traditional quartet stylings. Guests will hear the Dapper Dans' take on One Direction's What Makes You Beautiful, *NSYNC's Bye, Bye, Bye"and the Backstreet Boys' Everybody.
Performances will take place throughout the day on Main Street USA. If you are planing on visiting Disneyland Park during the upcoming week, be sure to check the park entertainment guide for specific performance times.
Joffrey's Coffee has replaced Nescafé as the official coffee of the Disneyland Resort. The partnership is being called a "long-term alliance" that will see Joffrey's products served across all of Disney's domestic theme parks and Disney Vacation Club properties. Joffrey's will also be developing unique coffee blends specifically for Disney park guests. The specialty coffees will also be available for purchase through an in-hotel and online catalog.
This comes just as the Disneyland Resort is preparing to start construction on its second Starbucks location, which will be located on Main Street USA. The first, highly successful Starbucks at the Disneyland Resort opened in June 2012 on Buena Vista Street at Fiddler, Fifer and Practical Cafe in Disney California Adventure Park. Joffrey's Coffee will be served at all other locations throughout the Resort providing guests with a variety of coffee choices.
… Disneyland guests looked their best this past Sunday as part of Dapper Day. The fashionable gathering has become an annual tradition at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World. Though the event is not officially sanctioned by Disney, the in-park @DisneylandToday official Twitter account came alive greeting well-dressed guests and offering tips such as, "Enjoy a wild ride with the impeccably dressed Mr. Toad…"

… Fantasy Faire, an extension of Disneyland's Fantasyland, which will primarily house a princess meet-and-greet, is only two weeks away from its March 12, 2013 grand opening. The final touches are being put into place and beautiful details are beginning to emerge.

Check here to see if a large convention, competition or park event might fall during your next trip to the Disneyland Resort. If you know of any in-park events, official or unofficial, that should be listed here, please send us an e-mail (link).
2013We also recommend checking the convention calendar at the Anaheim/Orange County Visitor and Convention Bureau website. When looking at that site, remember to note both the number of people and the number of rooms resulting from each convention. A gathering of 25,000 people booking few room nights (indicating most will be driving in to the area for their meeting) can impact traffic around the resort much more than a crowd of 25,000 staying in area hotels. Of course, that second group is going to make finding a hotel room more difficult (and possibly more expensive), so it's best to book your own room as early as possible if you see that a big convention is in town during your trip.
Note: MousePlanet does not edit past Updates to reflect price increases; for up-to-date prices, check the most recent Disneyland Resort Update. Several current promotions offer discounted admission to the Disneyland Resort. For your convenience, we have grouped the discount offers based on the number of days the tickets are valid. Check out the category that best matches the amount of time you plan to spend at the resort, and pick the offer that works best for you. And keep those tips coming—let us know if you find a better or different offer, so we can share it with other readers!
This first section is a list of discounts on ticket-only purchases. Though it has become more common in recent years, Disneyland tickets are rarely offered at deep discounts unless you are a resident of Southern California or Northern Mexico. For residents outside that area, the best discounts available tend to be simple advance purchase discounts. If you know of any additional discounts, offers, promotions, or contests that should be listed in this section, drop us a line. Note, we are no longer listing offers from the Anaheim-Orange County Visitor & Convention Bureau, as their convenience fee negates any savings.

Check with your employer, school or credit union to see if any discounts are available through them. | |
| Three Day, One Park per Day Ticket – Regularly $220/$205 Three Day Park Hopper – Regularly $250/$235 |
Get Away Today Vacations – MousePlanet sponsor Get Away Today Vacations sells three-day tickets at a slight discount over the Disneyland main gate price. 3-day Park Hoppers are $245 for adults ($230 for children); 3-day 1/park/day tickets are $217 for adults ($202 for children). 2012-2013 Disney Military Promotional 3–Day Park Hopper Ticket ($125) – a discounted price offered to Eligible Service Members or their spouses. Disney Military Promotional 3-Day Park Hopper Tickets may be purchased through September 26, 2013, and are valid through September 28, 2013. Disney defines "Eligible Service Members" as active or retired members of the U.S. military, including the National Guard, Reservists, and the U.S. Coast Guard. Valid military identification will be required for purchase. This discount is available at MWR/ITT offices at your military base or other at participating U.S. military sales outlets. The tickets are not available for sale at the Disneyland Resort ticket booths. The price is the same for adults and children, and total of six tickets may be purchased per military member, regardless of who purchases the tickets (the member or their spouse). Tickets are blocked out through January 2; February 15–17; March 25 to April 5; and July 4. As far as we can tell, there is no "fuse" on this ticket, so you may have more than the standard 13 days from first use to use the remaining two admissions, but we highly recommend you contact your base MWR/ITT office for more details before making travel plans. Please note that this ticket is not a "bonus" ticket, and so does not include an early admission day. Check with your employer, school or credit union to see if other discounts are available through them. |

| Four Day, One Park per Day Ticket – Regularly $245/$225 Four Day Park Hopper – Regularly $275/$255 |
Costco 4-Day Park Hopper Ticket plus $50 Costco Cash card ($259.99) – the Fall 2012 version of this discount offer is a bit different than past deals, with several important changes:
At face value, the ticket is only $15 less than the rack rate for a Disneyland Resort 4-Day Parkhopper ticket purchased at the Main Entrance booths, and is more expensive than the child's ticket. The real "savings" comes in the form of the $50 Costco Cash Card. If you were already in the market for a 4-day Parkhopper and plan to spend $50 at Costco, this deal will save you $65.00, but it may not be a real value if you aren't an avid Costco shopper. Get Away Today Vacations – MousePlanet sponsor Get Away Today Vacations sells four-day tickets at a slight discount over the Disneyland main gate price. 4-day Park Hoppers are $270 for adults ($250 for children); 4-day 1/park/day tickets are $240 for adults ($220 for children). Check with your employer, school or credit union to see if any discounts are available through them. |
