New Halloween Character Dining & Meals Announced for Disneyland Resort

Disneyland Announces 2026 Halloween Character Dining

Halloween character dining is officially returning to Disneyland Resort for the 2026 spooky season! Beyond the park treats and frightfully fun merchandise, Disney has confirmed the return of these fan-favorite dining experiences across the Disneyland Resort hotels.

Running from August 21 through October 31, 2026, guests can enjoy festive all-you-can-eat buffets, immersive seasonal décor, and encounters with favorite Disney characters dressed in brand-new and autumn-inspired attire.

Goofy’s Kitchen Celebrates Halloween (Disneyland Hotel)

Located at the Disneyland Hotel, Goofy’s Kitchen Celebrates Halloween! is debuting an all-new look for 2026. This year, Goofy and his friends are sporting a fresh color palette of blue, green, and purple for their spooktacular costumes:

• Goofy: Dressed up as a Frankenstein-style monster
• Minnie Mouse: A charming witch
• Chip ‘n’ Dale: A heroic pair of superheroes

Guests dining during breakfast, brunch, or dinner will enjoy themed restaurant decorations alongside the classic all-you-can-eat Goofy’s Kitchen buffet spread with added Halloween twists.

Character Dining at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa

Over at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, Storytellers Cafe will host two distinct seasonal dining offerings:

1. Clarabelle’s Enchanted Halloween Dinner

• Dates: August 21 – October 31, 2026
• Highlights: Clarabelle Cow hosts a spooky evening feast! Guests are encouraged to wear their own Halloween costumes to meet Clarabelle and her friends in their seasonal outfits.

2. Mickey’s Autumn Adventures Breakfast & Brunch

• Dates: August 21 – November 21, 2026
• Highlights: For those who prefer crisp autumn vibes over ghost stories, Mickey and friends will greet guests during breakfast and brunch wearing cozy fall apparel.

Advance dining reservations for both Goofy’s Kitchen and Storytellers Cafe are strongly recommended, as Halloween character dining slots consistently fill up fast during the fall season. Bookings can be made via the official Disneyland app or website.
