60th Anniversary

Postby KeithS » Mon Jul 14, 2014 8:56 am

This Thursday marks the 59th Anniversary of the opening of Disneyland in 1955. Disney have already stated that they will be unveiling their plans for next year's 60th Anniversary celebration, so I'm setting up this thread now for us to discuss. I'll post any press releases here when they come out - probably Friday morning.

Well, the press launch for the 60th Anniversary was pretty underwhelming as it appears that Disney have now decided to drip feed information for the 60th over the next year, rather than unveil everything at once (a bit disappointing as they had even said on their Disney Parks Blog a few weeks ago that they'd unveil their plans for the 60th celebration today!)

They did launch the 60th Anniversary logo and a photo competition (open only to US residents), but no other announcements.

Here is the logo:

Diamonds are the theme given it is the diamond anniversary. We'll just have to wait to see what else is in store for us!

It is a very good design. One of their better efforts. There will obviously be a lot of diamond-motif merchandise next year!

Tomorrow, the Disneyland Resort will unveil their plans for the 60th Anniversary celebrations at Disneyland.

News should start to filter out tomorrow afternoon and I'll compile as much as I can here once I get home from work!

I watched little bits of the Main Street webcam from time to time. I did see saw great YouTube videos of the new fireworks, parade and World of Color. They all looked pretty good.

I also watch a little bit.... was sooooo wishing I could have been there.

I love the look of Paint the Night parade... I hope it stays a while so I get to see it.

I'm pretty sure it is going to be a long term stayer, so you should be okay to see it. Of course, you can always go up to Hong Kong to see it there!

Oh, I didn't know it was also in Hong Kong .... still need to tick that one off my list, so will have to pencil it in at some point.
