    Van Eaton Galleries- The Joel Magee Disneyland Collection Auction and Exhibit

    In case anyone here hasn't seen this, Van Eaton's exhibits are top notch. Looks like this one will be reminiscent of the That's From Disneyland event from 2017. https://vegalleries.com/releases/the-joel-magee-disneyland-collection This makes me wish I still lived 20 minutes from Burbank. I've...

    Merlin's Marvelous Miscellany opens in Fantasyland

    I haven't seen this mentioned on here yet, it looks like the replacement for the Holiday shop in Fantasyland has finally opened. It looks like a decently themed shop, though Disney's resistance to unique and highly themed merchandise continues to disappoint. The old Heraldry shop was way better...

    Disneyland Postcards from the 50s-80s

    About a year ago I started collecting vintage Disneyland postcards and would buy them whenever they were cheap on eBay. Many that I got were used- and I think they provide a fun glimpse into Disneyland's early years.

    A friend of a friend of a friend is returning to work at the Opera Theater, and says that Lincoln is reopening June 30. Just thought I'd share for any interested. When asked, they confirmed it's Lincoln returning and not a movie preview.

    Disneyland Memories and Appreciation

    Over the last two weeks I've grown to really miss good ole' fashioned Disneyland. Looking back at my many visits in 2019, it seems so surreal now with all of the unpleasantness surrounding the Covid-19 pandemic and controversial announcements made over the last year. For many, 2020 is going to...

    A Brief and Incomplete History of Splash Mountain

    With all of this talk about Splash Mountain, Song of the South, and recent announcements I thought it'd be fun to take a look back at Splash Mountain the ride- where it came from, why it was built, and the people behind it. This thread isn't intended to discuss 2020 Splash Mountain or Princess...

    What state of (dis)repair will Disneyland be in upon reopen?

    Having Disneyland Park closed for months was unprecedented- and none of those attractions have gone that long without operating. Even when they're closed for refurbishment they have a slew of workers fixing what needs to be fixed- not letting things fall into disrepair. When the park closed...

    Happy (late) 28th Birthday Fantasmic!

    Happy (late) 28th birthday to the greatest piece of live entertainment Disneyland has ever produced! So many great memories watching this over the years. The original was a masterclass in themed entertainment- a near perfect show that still hasn't been topped. Originally titled...

    Lengthy walkthroughs of Disneyland from the 1990s

    During the longest closure Disneyland has seen, I imagine quite a few of us are starting to miss the place. The sites, the sounds, the ambiance of the place. Perhaps Freshbaked's best contribution to Disneyland fandom are their silent walkthroughs of Disneyland. These provide us an excellent...

    Disneyland with a Theme Park Virgin

    Looks like in August I'll be attending the park (not parks ;)) with some people who have never been to a theme park. Six Flags Magic Mountain and Utah's Lagoon are the only two parks they've been to (except for one who went to Univeral Island of Adventure in Orlando). So here's the question...

    Hey All!

    I'm a SoCal native who grew up going to DL frequently. I've been an AP holder for most of my life. I'm a huge fan of Disneyland Park, and will often choose to spend the whole day there and skip out on DCA. Between 2013-2015 I went on average a couple times a month, but would often try to go...
