San Francisco Welcomes Disneyland’s 70th Anniversary Hot Air Balloon
Just days before the Disneyland Resort’s 70th Anniversary, a special themed hot air balloon has been touring across the U.S.A., recently making a stop in San Francisco.
While Disneyland’s official birthday is July 17, a special hot air balloon recently visited San Francisco for an early celebration. This unique balloon showcases the “70 Disneyland” anniversary logo along with the event’s distinct colors. Beyond the prominent, diamond-shaped celebration logo, it also features a charming pattern of Mickey’s face, echoing the art style found in some of the park’s own decorations.
ABC7 News was on hand to cover the event, with reporter Gloria RodrÃguez meeting Mickey and Minnie in their 70th-anniversary attire and even getting a peek inside the impressive 75-foot-tall hot air balloon. According to Megan Roth of Disneyland Resort, the handmade balloon is large enough to fit over 90,000 basketballs! Goofy and Donald also joined the celebration, sporting their own 70th-anniversary outfits.
How fun would it be to see the Disneyland 70th anniversary hot air balloon over your town?
