There has been quite a few closures at Disneyland, and around the resort, with even more are coming in August. Starting August 5th, the Disneyland Railroad will be closed, along with Space Mountain, Turtle Talk with Crush, and the Animation Academy! We don’t have reopening dates yet, but it is good that they are keeping the attractions maintained. – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/06/25/brace-yourself-4-ride-and-attraction-closures-are-coming-to-disneyland/

Something new has appeared on the stage in the Golden Horseshoe. It isn’t entertainment unfortunately, but a display for Celebrate Soulfully! The new display highlights black music in America at the turn of the 20th century. The exhibit is on the stage, so until it leaves, there will not be any live music. – https://www.micechat.com/389280-disneyland-update-a-week-of-history-change-envy/

Summer is just starting, but Disney is already preparing for the holidays. At Disneyland, the holiday season will kick off on November 15th, with returning traditions like Festival of the Holidays, attraction overlays, and winter decor. The new wintertime attire for Mickey, Minnie, and their friends was also unveiled. – https://disneyparksblog.com/disney-experiences/wishing-you-a-holly-jolly-halfway-to-the-holidays-from-disney-experiences/

A new storefront has come to Main Street, USA. On Center Street, Main Street Painters Supply has moved in. There is no shop here, just the facade as part of a sponsorship deal with paint manufacturer PPG.
