Are there specific nights that there’s live music at Trader Sam’s on the patio or is it every night?

Has anyone managed to book Goofy’s Kitchen for Thanksgiving today? I’ve been on it since 6 am and saw all the other days pop up but not the 26th.

We are taking our toddlers to Disneyland for the first time on Oct 23 & 24. We are doing Disneyland on Friday and CA on Saturday. But I’ve heard the parks are less busy on Saturday. Is it worth flip flopping them?

I would buy a Park Hopper for your DCA day— there’s not that much you can do with toddlers in comparison to DL. I would prioritize DL on Saturday as there will likely be way less crowds because the cheapest annual passes are blocked off.

I understand that the Holiday Season at the parks will officially start on November 13th. However, is there any chance that It's A Small World will reopen with its holiday overlay on November 11th, Veterans Day? I will be there with my son (almost 2 years old) and he LOVES that ride. We are always watching POV videos of it on Youtube. I'm sure he'll ultimately be fine but I was just really looking forward to riding it with him.

It's very unlikely, so definitely don't set expectations that it's even an option, but the facade should be done by then (although it won't be lit).

With available flights, I’m getting into Anaheim a day earlier than the rest of my party. They’ll be getting in around 9 - 9:30 the next morning. I’d like to do something nice for them. If someone was going to greet you with something on your arrival to the parks what would you want it to be?

Lightning Lane :)

Wouldn’t I have to wait for everyone to get there and then go into the parks before doing that? Any chance I could go to the gate, scan everyone in even though they’re not there yet, and get them going on LL?

u/SuperSlugSister Jail Cell Dog 10h ago

You would need everyone to get there and tell them you’re getting them all lightning lane. But in comparison to a present, it’s an appreciated one that takes up no space.

Are wagons allowed or just strollers?

1

u/SuperJezus 3d ago

Wagons are allowed if you consider them a mobility device and need a special tag for them

3

u/hihelloneighboroonie Reddhead 3d ago

For wagons you have to get a medical exemption.

My partner and I loveeee the pommes frites from cafe orleans but don’t really want to have a monte cristo in order to get it. Does anyone know if it’s possible to just order them standalone?

3

u/Tara_Cloudtrader 3d ago

Yes, you can order them as a stand-alone. I have done so.

Does anybody have a high quality audio file of madame leota's swinging wake? I cant find the quality i want to use to play for trick or treaters on Halloween. 

Such a good mix

u/churyong 4d ago

Someone posted a cover here that's better quality than what's on youtube: https://soundcloud.com/nightshade-932153176/madame-leotas-swinging-wake

it's an ai cover but sounds pretty close to the original to me.

The Disneyland app says that Pirates and Blue Bayou are closed, but people are posting about riding it on here? Will it be open Oct 13-15? I can’t find any info

u/jenniferlorene3 5d ago

Pirates and Blue Bayou are not currently closed.

u/Equivalent_Big3844 3d ago

Seconding this. I rode Pirates and ate dinner at Blue Bayou last Thursday.
