Disneyland Resort Update for January 21 – 27, 2019

Mickey's Mix Magic
Mickey's Mix Magic, the new nighttime show created for the 90th anniversary celebration for Mickey and Minnie, debuted last Friday night on Main Street, U.S.A. Billed as a "high-energy projection show," Mickey's Mix Magic is a 10-minute mashup of projected animation, light effects and electronic dance arrangements of popular Disney songs.
As we expected based on concept art, the show relies heavily on the projectors previously installed around Disneyland park to project animation on the buildings of Main Street, U.S.A., on Sleeping Beauty Castle, on the Fantasmic show set and mist screens, and on the facade of "it's a small world."
Much of the animation is original to this show, with Mickey and friends presented in the style Disney Television Animation has used for the Mickey Mouse cartoon shorts since 2015. Characters from The Jungle Book, The Aristocats, Aladdin, Coco, and Frozen dance across the scenes like part of an animated kaleidoscope.
Mickey's Mix Magic begins and ends with "It’s a Good Time," a new song created especially for “World’s Biggest Mouse Party," Disney's celebration of 90 years of Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse. "DJ Mickey" acts as host of the party, and is shown spinning records throughout the show.
With Sleeping Beauty Castle currently under wraps for refurbishment, and Fantasmic about to go on winter hiatus, Main Street and the area in front of "it's a small world" provide the best viewing for the new show. Each location has its own unique presentation and special effects. On Main Street, the projected show is repeated up and down the street, with several buildings serving as a focal point. The Main Street location also makes use of snow blowers and laser effects to add to the show.
"it's a small world" offers a different viewing experience, with the animation reworked to fit the single projection surface. Snow blowers were not used in this location during a media preview, and we do not know if they are part of the usual show. On nights when fireworks are presented, you can also get a view of them from this location.
Disney advertises that the show will include fireworks on select nights, but at this time there is still no way to know in advance if fireworks are planned that evening. Disney says the online entertainment calendar should indicate which nights are scheduled to include them. Until that change happens, we still expect the 9:30 p.m. shows on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights will likely include the pyrotechnics, where the 7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. performances on weeknights might not.
Mickey's Mix Magic is definitely a show for a specific audience, and not all Disney fans find it to be their cup of tea. The combination of updated Disney characters and dance club music appeals to some visitors, but the show lacks the storyline of recent fireworks shows. Of course, this is not intended to be a fireworks show, and it seems Disney is hoping audiences respond well to a nighttime spectacular that is light on pyro.
Get Your Eats On
While "Get Your Ears On" is Disney's official name for this anniversary promotion, "Get Your Eats On" is just as appropriate. Disney's chefs and menu planners have created no fewer than 90 different items to be released over the next few months, with treats in both theme parks and two of the resort hotels.
To help keep track of the must-try dishes, you can pick up a printed Get Your Ears On food guide, which provides listings, locations and photos for many of the treats. The guides are also available online to assist you with planning your visits in advance—click here for the guides for Disneyland park and Disney California Adventure park.
With 90 items on offer, we can't review them all in this space, and some are just variations of items—candy apples and churros—already sold in the park. But there are some new and novel creations to be found, and we had the opportunity to sample some last week.
Disney's pastry chefs have a lot of fun with macarons, and the new Party Hat version has to be their most interesting. The light blue cookie is piped with cotton candy-flavored cream and filled with a mixture of candy sprinkles, including pop rocks. The treat is almost like a piñata, as the candy falls out as soon as you break the shell. Be sure to eat this one over a plate.
While sweet treats seem to dominate these food lists, there are quite a few savory creations on the 90th anniversary menu. The award for most photogenic goes to the Share Your Ears burger from Smoke Jumpers Grill in Disney California Adventure. This is a 1/3-pound cheeseburger topped with two cheeseburger sliders as "ears."
Another designed-for-Instagram dish is the Pad Thai Spring Roll from Bengal BBQ in Disneyland. It's served chilled with a peanut dipping sauce, and has an artfully arranged hidden Mickey inside the wrapper.
Last November, collectors waited in line for hours to get their hands on a souvenir Mickey Mouse sipper cup, which Disney said would be available just one day. Well, that cup returned for the Get Your Ears On celebration, and is available for $24.99 at more than a dozen locations around Disneyland and Disney California Adventure.
The next hot food collectible will arrive in February, when Disneyland releases Mickey, Minnie, and Steamboat Willie popcorn buckets. The Steamboat Willie design will be available only to Disneyland annual passholders. No pricing was available at press time, but we expect them to run $25 or so.
The Disneyland Hotel has updated its Classic Afternoon Tea with a new Mickey's Tea Party Celebration menu. Available through March 31, the new menu features a Mickey Mouse take on everything from salad to dessert. Reservations are available Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, and every Thursday in March from noon to 3:00 p.m. View the new menu and check dining availability at the Disneyland website.
Valentine's Month begins January 22
Love is in the air at Disneyland, where Valentine's Day will be celebrated for an entire month in 2019. With Mickey and Minnie already the stars of the Get Your Ears On celebration, it's natural that they are also the focus of the Valentine's month promotion.

Flowers are traditional Valentine's Day gifts, so it's fitting that the floral Mickey Mouse planter at Disneyland's main entrance will get a makeover for the month. Main Street, U.S.A. will feature additional Valentine's Day decor and photo opportunities.
New this year is Minnie's Valentine's Day Surprise Scavenger Hunt Experience. A twist on the popular Easter promotions, this hunt sends participants around Disneyland in search of Valentine's cards Minnie Mouse placed around the park. The experience costs $6.99 for the game board and stickers. Once you've found all of the Valentines, redeem your completed board to receive a special surprise.
As mentioned above, the Classic Afternoon Tea at Disneyland's Steakhouse 55 has a new Mickey Mouse theme as part of the Get Your Ears On promotion, but from February 8–17, the restaurant will host a special Valentine's tea with additional sweetheart treats. Reservations are available Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays—check dining availability at the Disneyland website.
Lunar New Year celebration kicks off Friday
Disney California Adventure will celebrate the Year of the Pig starting this Friday with a Lunar New Year festival. A highlight of the 24-day celebration is the return of the popular “Mulan’s Lunar New Year Procession,” which this year features a rare appearance by Disney's Three Little Pigs in holiday attire. Goofy, and Chip and Dale also join the procession in their seasonal costumes.
At Paradise Gardens Park, Mickey, Minnie, Mulan, Mushu, and Pluto will rotate through a Lunar New Year meet-and-greet photo opportunity. The Paradise Gardens area will also feature craft stations, Lunar New Year photo spots, live music, and the return of the Lucky Wishing Wall.
In addition to the seasonal menu offered at the Paradise Gardens Grill, there will be four marketplace booths featuring a variety of Asian-inspired dishes. Look for the Longevity Noodle Co., the Lucky 8 Lantern, Prosperity Bao & Buns, and the Red Dragon Spice Traders. New this year, Disney has created a Sip and Savor Pass especially for the four Asian Marketplaces.
Food & Wine Festival events
With so much attention focused on the Get Your Ears On promotion, it's easy to forget that the 2019 Disney Food & Wine Festival is just six weeks away. In fact, reservations opened last week for seven premium Festival events, including tasting seminars, cooking demonstrations, Sweet Sundays and the signature Dinner with the Disney Chefs event.

We 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.
Non-Disney Resort Events

Current Discounts and Promotions
Disneyland prices as of January 6, 2019.
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.
Don't get scammed! Never buy tickets from an unofficial or secondary outlet, such as through eBay or Craigslist. Never rent or purchase tickets from people approaching you outside the gates stating they have remaining days or leftover tickets. This practice is against the terms of use for Disneyland admission, and may result in denial of entry. It is also common for criminals to shoplift inactivated Disney theme park tickets from supermarkets to resell them. There is no way to determine if these tickets are valid until you try to use them to enter the parks. Only purchase Disney theme park tickets directly from Disney, an authorized seller, or travel agency like MousePlanet travel partner Get Away Today.
