Disneyland Resort Celebrates 70 Years with ‘70 Happiest Hours in Anaheim’ Community Initiative

In celebration of its 70th anniversary, Disneyland Resort honored the Anaheim community with “70 Happiest Hours in Anaheim”—a three-day initiative filled with surprise events, special appearances, and joyful experiences for local residents.

Over the course of 70 hours, Disney magic touched the lives of more than 5,000 individuals across 16 events throughout the city. From classroom surprises to block parties, the initiative highlighted the strong bond between Disneyland and Anaheim, the city it has called home since 1955.

“For 70 years, Disneyland Resort has been fortunate to call the City of Anaheim home,” said Thomas Mazloum, president of Disneyland Resort. “With 70 Happiest Hours in Anaheim, we’re honoring our legacy by giving back to the community that has embraced us for generations – bringing a little extra magic to the place and people who mean so much to us.”

Highlights of the campaign included:

·         Mickey Mouse and friends surprising more than 800 students and staff on their first day back at Crescent Elementary School

·         A festival-style movie night at Loara High School with more than 300 attendees

·         Surprise station visits to nearly 100 Anaheim first responders, complete with character greetings, treats, and games

·         Veterans from Walnut Village honored during a special flag retreat ceremony at Disneyland Resort

·         A spectacular halftime performance at Glover Stadium, where the Katella High School band joined the Disneyland Band to perform classic Disney songs

·         Additional surprises included themed snacks, keepsake giveaways, and beloved Disney characters greeting guests at community events.

“Anaheim and Disneyland Resort are bound by history and a legacy that lives on as part of our community today,” said Ashleigh Aitken, Mayor of Anaheim. “These events keep that legacy alive, benefiting kids, families, seniors, and first responders across Anaheim. As home to Walt Disney’s original Disneyland, no one else has what Anaheim has – and this reflects that special bond.”

Beyond the anniversary celebrations, Disneyland Resort continues its long-standing commitment to Orange County through volunteerism and philanthropy. In 2024 alone, Disney cast members contributed more than 33,000 volunteer hours and held over 80 workforce development sessions, while the resort provided tens of millions of dollars in cash and in-kind donations to benefit local families.

Special Offer for Anaheim Residents

To continue the celebration, Anaheim residents can enjoy a special ticket offer: a 1-day, 1-park ticket for as little as $70. This limited-time offer requires valid admission and park reservation for the same date and park. Details are available at Disneyland.com/AnaheimResidentOffer.
