At Disneyland Hotel you’ll find Santa at this meet & greet spot where you can meet the jolly guy in Mid-Century Modern style of at the Disneyland Hotel.
This meet and greet is all about the chic style and attention to detail here. It looks like it could be a set out of Mad Men, except with several little Easter Eggs that Disney fans will recognize (be sure to look out the window!).
Seeing Santa here is cool but I think it’s cooler to just explore on your own after Santa has retired for the day.
So, what’s all the fuss about a candy cane? The Disneyland creations are handmade — a lost art, according to Disney. It takes a crew of three candymakers two hours to make a batch of about 45 candy canes.
The candy canes have to be made in a sealed room heated to 90 to 100 degrees. They are 5 ounces and 10-12 inches long. On a candy-cane making day, just three batches are typically made, so they are in short supply.
This guy sure knows how to pig out this holiday season! Purchase your own limited-time Santa Hamm Chocolate-Covered Apple or holiday cookie ornament at Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff on Pixar Pier before it’s too late!
Add all ingredients in a Boston Shaker (except garnish), fill half full with ice, and shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Strain into a tall bamboo glass filled with ice. Garnish with whipped cream and a fresh rosemary sprig.
The first Disneyland holiday celebration was in 1955, when Walt Disney placed a Christmas tree in the Hub at the north end of Main Street, U.S.A., near Sleeping Beauty Castle. For many years now, the tree has been located in Town Square near the Main Street Disneyland Railroad Station.
despite Holiday Time running until the 6th January, the Tree lighting only happened until Christmas Eve - so just be aware of that when planning your trip!
Buena Vista Street is decked out in vintage-style ornaments and decor, with Disney California Adventure’s 50-foot-tall Christmas tree going up in Carthay Circle. All of the tree’s decorations are large-scale replicas of actual decorations that would’ve been on a Los Angeles Christmas tree in the 1930s. The oversized Red Car Trolley ornament features Mickey and Minnie, and a smaller version of the ornament is available for purchase in the park. Under the tree will be custom-made 1/16th-size train chugging along with sound and lights, and all sorts of vintage toys for display, from a tin robot to a blimp and other hidden surprises from the 1930’s time period. Which ones have you spotted?
No matter the time of year, the Dapper Dans are who we want to hear! So lend them your ear, and never fear, because they have the songs of the season to make you cheer
