Disneyland After Dark Tickets on Sale Feb. 5th

Dust off your Mickey ears and polish your lightsabers—Disneyland has officially dropped details for this Spring’s Disneyland After Dark events. In a recent announcement via the @DisneyParks Instagram, the resort confirmed that Star Wars Nite and Disney Channel Nite are returning to Disneyland Park with new characters, nostalgic entertainment, and an earlier-than-expected ticket drop.

Disney Channel Nite: The Ultimate Throwback

This year’s event is leaning heavily into the 2000s nostalgia that fans crave. The biggest news? Penny Proud from The Proud Family will be making her official Disneyland Resort debut.

Entertainment Highlights:

• High School Musical – ZOMBIES Pep Rally: A high-energy mashup of your favorite DCOM hits.
• DescenDANCE: A villain-kid-themed party along the Rivers of America.
• Camp Rock Sing-Along: Belt out “This Is Me” at the Golden Horseshoe.
• The Food: Disney is leaning into the theme with “Loaded Dino Nuggies” and a brand-new Ice Cream Naco (a nod to Kim Possible).

Star Wars Nite: The Force Returns

Fans of a galaxy far, far away will see the return of the “March of the First Order,” featuring Captain Phasma patrolling Tomorrowland for Resistance spies. You might also catch a glimpse of Darth Maul at the Tomorrowland Terrace or catch a set from Figrin D’an and the Modal Nodes (The Cantina Band).

New Galactic Eats:

• Pizza Five-Blossom Bread: Debuting at Oga’s Cantina.
• Galactic Bundt Cake: Available at multiple locations throughout the park.

A Bonus Treat: 70 Years of Favorites

Disneyland also shared a sneak peek at the 70 Years of Favorites event taking place March 3 and 5. The standout feature will be “Sounds of Magic,” a riverfront serenade. This show will feature live vocalists performing medleys from retired fan-favorite shows, including Tiana’s Showboat Jubilee and Frozen – Live at the Hyperion.

Ticket Sale Timeline: Mark Your Calendars

Demand is expected to be sky-high, so fans should prepare for the virtual queue early. Tickets go on sale to the general public no earlier than 9 a.m. PT on Thursday, Feb. 5.

However, Magic Key holders get a head start with two exclusive pre-sale windows:

• Tuesday, Feb. 3 (9 a.m. PT): Pre-sale opens for Inspire Key holders.
• Wednesday, Feb. 4 (9 a.m. PT): Pre-sale opens for all Magic Key holders.

Disneyland After Dark events are more than just a party; they offer a “mix-in” period that lets you maximize your time in the park. Each ticket includes:

• Early Admission: Enter Disneyland Park three hours before the official party start time.
• Disney PhotoPass: Unlimited digital downloads of all photos taken during the event.
• Commemorative Swag: A themed credential and event guide map.
