Disneyland plans to throw a blockbuster party for its 70th anniversary that will rival the yearlong celebrations that marked major milestones in the past at the Anaheim theme park, Disney Parks Chairman Josh D’Amaro announced Saturday during the D23 fan event.
Disneyland has already begun gearing up for a 70th anniversary celebration in 2025 to rival the yearlong parties for the 50th and 60th anniversaries that brought new or returning parades, fireworks shows and nighttime spectaculars along with themed decor, food and merchandise.
