Disney Parks Blog shares, “Cast Members are the heart of the Disneyland Resort!” That being said, Disneyland wanted to give them the honor of enjoying the two new, nighttime spectaculars before they debuted to the public!
Disney100 Preview
Dressed in purple and platinum, thousands of Cast Members watched as Wondrous Journeys came to life at Disneyland. The projection and fireworks show lights up Sleeping Beauty Castle and Main Street, U.S.A., paying tribute to over 60 Walt Disney Animation Studios films.
They were also treated to World of Color – ONE, Disney California Adventure’s new water show. As if the former presentations weren’t emotional enough, Disney has done it again with an even more moving rendition.
During the evening, people were selected at random as Cast Member-only Disney100 merchandise was bestowed upon them. Each item bore the name “CAST MEMBER” and employees were proud to be a part of the incredible Celebration.
Chelsey McConnell is the Recognition & Events program manager. She shares, “It’s hugely gratifying seeing everyone having a good time. I’m so honored to be a part of this and to be among all my fellow cast members as we launch this celebration.”
In reference to the event, Disneyland Cast Member Brandon Dunbar said, “Years later, I will look back and be like, ‘Oh my gosh, I was there, and I got to be a part of that!’”
Disneyland Cast Member Gretchen Schueller added, “I mean, it’s the 100th anniversary – that’s a once-in-a-lifetime celebration. And to be one of the first to see this new show is epic!”
2023 has started off on a magical foot, as Disneyland celebrates its 100th Anniversary. Will you be visiting the Parks this year?
