Disney invited me to an all expense paid trip to Los Angeles in exchange for sharing it with you. As always, all opinions 100% my own. How to Dress for the Diamond Disney Celebration.

Last week, I went to Disney Land for the very first time and had the pleasure of being there during the Diamond Disney Celebration! It was a blast getting to see the Paint the Night Parade, the Disney Forever Fireworks, and the World of Color fountain show. In celebration of the 60th Anniversary, I put together a few outfit ideas that are 60th Anniversary focused and other that are inspired by some of my favorite Disney Characters like Leia, Ariel and Sadness.

Paint the Night

My daughter would love to see paint the night. It is super cool being able to see all the princess all lit up and having fun on colorful floats.

Feel your senses spring to life as you take in this electrifying spectacle of beloved Disney Characters.

When the lights go down at The Happiest Place on Earth, that’s when the Disneyland Resort Diamond Celebration shines most brilliantly, thanks to the all-new Disney Paint the Night Parade!

Watch in wonder as the vivid imagination of Mickey Mouse and his friend Tinker Bell’s enchanted pixie dust paint the night with dazzling Disney dreams, complete with a colorful palette of more than one million glowing lights!

With a wave of his white-gloved hand, Mickey conjures up spectacular Disney visions right before our eyes! Gaze in awe as luminescent floats, costumed performers and beloved Characters from Disney and Pixar stories flow like a shimmering river of neon down Main Street, U.S.A.

Some of the Characters you can expect to see include:

Tinker Bell
Peter Pan
Lightning McQueen
Mike & Sulley
Ariel
Belle
Rapunzel
Anna & Elsa
Buzz & Woody

Featuring cutting-edge special effects and high-energy music, the Disney Paint the Night Parade is a dazzling after-dark experience beyond anything you’ve ever imagined!

Disney Forever

During the Disneyland Resort Diamond Celebration, discover a spectacle like no other as you’re literally surrounded by a mesmerizing mix of breathtaking pyrotechnics and jaw-dropping visual effects.

One minute, you’re standing on Main Street, U.S.A. And the next, you’re transported to the worlds of timeless Disney tales—soaring over London with Peter Pan, stampeding across Simba’s Pride Lands, diving down under the sea with Nemo and friends, or caught up in a swirling snow flurry right out of Frozen!

Using all of Main Street, U.S.A. and iconic Disneyland locations like the Matterhorn mountain, Rivers of America and “it’s a small world” as its stage, this all-new showcase takes you on an amazing adventure that proves just how magical The Happiest Place on Earth can be.

Need to know where you can see the show? Simply plant yourself around any of the locations listed above—and enjoy!

A Soundtrack Overflowing with Imagination
Topping off this immersive experience, Disneyland Forever even features 2 original songs: Its theme “Live the Magic” and its inspiring closing song “Kiss Goodnight,” which was written by Disney Legend Richard M. Sherman.

Walt Disney once said, “Disneyland will never be completed, as long as there is imagination left in the world.” During Disneyland Forever, you’ll see firsthand how Disneyland Park continues to be a home to our dreams… and why it will remain that way forever!

World of Color

Get ready to be dazzled—there’s a whole new World of Color at Disney California Adventure Park!

If you thought the popular nighttime spectacular was amazing before, just wait until you experience World of Color: Celebrate! The Wonderful World of Walt Disney—one of many all-new sights and sounds, courtesy of the Disneyland Resort Diamond Celebration.

Filled with never-before-seen surprises and dazzling special effects, and hosted by Neil Patrick Harris and the one-and-only Mickey Mouse, it’s an unforgettable opportunity to follow along on Walt’s incredible journey of imagination—from his earliest creations, to his very first visions for The Happiest Place on Earth, to today’s Disney magic… and beyond!

Featuring soaring fountains, fire and laser effects, stirring music and towering screens that come to life with new and classic Disney animation, World of Color: Celebrate! reminds us all that if we never give up on our dreams, then anything is possible!
