BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 There has been tons of coverage all over the place of this week's 60th anniversary celebration at Disneyland.

Is it going to end at the end of 2015?Just curious?...Nah, it will last much longer than that. It costs money to change out the "celebrations" to something else and change the signage, so they'll milk it as long as they can :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Disney Parks Blog has announced that the DL Diamond Celebration will continue for another year. Anyone else having flashbacks to the "Year of a Million Dreams" that ended up being about 3 years long?? Disneyland Resort Diamond Celebration Continues Through September 5, 2016posted on September 22nd, 2015 by Erin Glover, Social Media Director, Disneyland Resort For the past few months, we’ve been celebrating sixty years of the Happiest Place on Earth with the Disneyland Resort Diamond Celebration. Featuring the all-new “Paint the Night” parade, “Disneyland Forever” fireworks and “World of Color – Celebrate!” as well as special food and merchandise, the celebration has also brought a special sparkle throughout the Disneyland Resort – including a diamond-encrusted Sleeping Beauty Castle. Today, I’m excited to tell you that the celebration will continue to dazzle guests through September 5, 2016. That means you’ve still got time to experience all the Disneyland Resort Diamond Celebration has to offer! There have been countless moments of happiness here at the Disneyland Resort through the past sixty years … take a look at sixty seconds of happiness we’ve captured in the video below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGGty1vKx7E Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 As I predicted!! All that signage, bunting, vehicle wraps, etc, costs money!! They are NOT going to rip it all down in just one measely year :) BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 The timing of this must mean that they are happy with their bookings for the upcoming holiday season. I honestly thought that they would wait until closer to the end of the year to announce the "extension." That way, they could count on solid traffic from all the folks wanting to be sure to see the 60th anniversary stuff. Now the pressure is off. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
