Sleeping Beauty Castle Will Sparkle for Diamond Celebration

Three sensational new nighttime spectaculars will dazzle guests at the Disneyland Resort when the Diamond Celebration begins Friday, May 22, 2015. In addition, the iconic Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland Park and Carthay Circle Theatre in Disney California Adventure Park will glisten and gleam for the celebration, each with its own diamond medallion. The Disneyland Resort and surrounding streets also will sparkle with Diamond Celebration décor and festive banners in shades of Disneyland blue.

Celebrating 60 years of magic, the Diamond Celebration will continue the Disneyland tradition of innovative, immersive storytelling with three fantastic new shows that expand the boundaries of after-dark entertainment – Disney’s signature “kiss goodnight.” New technology and unleashed imagination permeate the new “Paint the Night” parade, flooding Main Street, U.S.A., in Disneyland with vibrant color and more than 1.5 million, brilliant LED lights that flash and glow as they bring Disney stories to life.  Guests will find themselves transported into the worlds of beloved Disney and Disney●Pixar films through the largest installation of projection mapping technology in a Disney park and surprising special effects in the dazzling “Disneyland Forever” fireworks show. In Disney California Adventure Park, a new “World of Color” show featuring Mickey Mouse will tell the story of Walt Disney and the Happiest Place on Earth through fountains, film, animation, a stirring musical score and amazing visual surprises.
