Disney Parks and Experiences panels announced for D23 Expo
For many Disney fans, the highlight of the D23 Expo is seeing what Walt Disney Imagineering has in store for the Disney parks around the world. For example, visitors got their first full look at Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at the 2017 D23 Expo—and we know fans are hoping for something equally amazing at the 2022 event. Last week, Disney Parks and Experiences shared some of their plans for the upcoming expo, including panel discussions and activities on the expo floor.

Key among the presentations announced is A Boundless Future: Disney Parks Experiences and Products, hosted by Disney Parks, Experiences and Products Chairman Josh D’Amaro. This Sunday morning panel will hopefully put some rumors to rest, and most likely spawn a whole new set.
The following is a full schedule of Disney Parks and Experiences presentations, and yes, they're really doing a panel on Duffy the Disney Bear. Don't laugh—that panel will be absolutely mobbed with international delegates.

Grad Nite 2023
Grad Nite returns to the Disneyland Resort next spring, with 15 Grad Nite events scheduled for 2032 in May and June. The 2023 offering includes the first Sunday Grad Nite dates offered.
- May 12, 14, 17, 19, 21, 24, 25, 30, and 31
- June 2, 4, 7, 9, 14, and 16

For 2023, Disney is again offering three ticket packages, although pricing has yet to be announced. As an example, the 2022 packages ranged from $89 to $179 per student:
- “Option 1” ($89 per student in 2022) – provides admission to the after-hours Grad Nite private party in Disney California Adventure from 9:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. after that park closes to “day guests.” This option is likely to be popular with local schools who want to attend Disney's Grad Nite on the actual evening of their graduation, after the ceremony.
- “Option 2” ($119 per student in 2022) – includes access to Disney California Adventure during regular operating hours on the event day, plus access to the after-hours party. This ticket does not include park-hopper benefits.
- “Option 3” ($179 per student in 2022) – provides park-hopper access to both Disneyland and Disney California Adventure parks during regular operating hours, and a private Grad Nite party in Disney California Adventure starting at 9:00 p.m.
Schools that book options 2 or 3 can still choose to arrive whenever they wish during their Grad Nite event. Some arrive right at park opening to maximize their time, while others arrive later due to travel time or other activities. As a result, the parks grow increasingly crowded as the day goes on and more students arrive.
Of course, Grad Nites are not the only times that the Disneyland Resort is crowded with student groups. The last weeks of school are typically popular times for class trips, something that Disney has actively encouraged in past years through special pricing and activities for school groups. Those visits won't appear on any calendar, but are a fact of Disney life during May and June.
We've generally considered the period between March and mid-June as one big, hazy spring break-into-graduation season. The Grad Nite calendar can give you an idea of when the most high school seniors will be on property, there is no way to know when a school district from central California is sending its ninth graders for their own promotion celebration.
Interested school groups can visit the Grad Nite web site for more information and pricing starting in August. The web site has not yet been updated for 2023.
Dapper Day dates and details
Dapper Day has two events planned at the Disneyland Resort, with convention-rate theme park tickets and hotel reservations open now for those who like to plan ahead and save money.
The Fall 2022 Expo weekend is November 5 and 6, 2022, with the in-park Fall Outing at Disneyland scheduled for Sunday, November 6. Discounted hotel rates are available at all three Disneyland Resort hotels, with a one-night deposit required at the time of reservation. Discounted tickets are also available for this weekend, though you'll find the best deal on 3-day ticket.
The Spring 2023 Expo weekend is April 15 and 16, 2023 with the in-park Spring Outing to Disneyland on Sunday, April 16. Hotel reservations are available now for April 14-16, and a ticket link will be available closer to the event. A one-night deposit is required at time of reservation.
Visit the Dapper Day website for reservation details and to purchase tickets. We also invite you to get a quote from MousePlanet travel parter Get Away Today for hotel and ticket packages. Visit their website or call 1-855-GET-AWAY, and be sure to mention you saw them on MousePlanet.
CHOC Walk update
Registration is still open for the all-new CHOC Adventure in the Park on Saturday, August 27, and participants now have even more time to meet their fundraising goal. The deadline for fundraising money for a ticket to CHOC Adventure in the Park had been extended until August 20th.
This exclusive after-hours event is a fund raiser for Children's Hospital Orange County, and replaces the annual CHOC Walk in the Park for 2022. The CHOC Adventure in the Park will operate somewhat like a Disneyland After Dark or Oogie Boogie Bash event. Attendees can enter Disney California Adventure as early as 5:00 p.m., and mix in with non-event guests until the park closes to the public at 9:00 p.m.. The event then turns into a private after-hours party from 9:00 p.m. to midnight.

The private party includes access to most attractions, with select merchandise and dining locations open for event guests. Attendees will also enjoy a DJ, special photo locations, unique character meet-and-greet opportunities, and a special presentation of the World of Color show.
Guests who reach certain fundraising thresholds may also receive extra benefits during the private event, including a reserved viewing area to the World of Color viewing, VIP reception, special character appearances, free parking, and more.
To attend the event, each participant pledges to donate or raise a minimum of $250. CHOC collects a nonrefundable registration fee of $50 when you register, and participants now have until August 20 to raise or donate the $200 balance. There are additional prizes offered to CHOC supporters who raise $500, $850, $1150 or more, and each of those levels has its own fundraising deadline. Visit the Event Incentives page for more details.
CHOC supporters who don't want to attend the event in person can register as a Virtual Fund-raiser, and receive a 30th anniversary CHOC Adventure in the Park commemorative T-shirt when they donate or raise $100 or more.
Tickets to the CHOC Adventure in the Park are limited, and registration is likely to close before the fundraising deadline. CHOC will maintain a waiting list, but we suggest securing your spot as soon as possible.

Of course, Team MousePlanet is back for 2022, and we're really looking forward to this re-imagined event. Thanks to the efforts and generosity of our readers, Team MousePlanet has raised nearly $90,000 for CHOC since 2008. We invite MousePlanet readers, friends, and family members near and far to register to join Team MousePlanet at the event, or register as a virtual fund raiser with the team. You can also make a donation to a team member to help them reach their goal.
Together We Rise at Disneyland
As a foster and adoptive parent, the Southern California charity Together We Rise holds a very special place in my heart. Prior to the pandemic, Together We Rise hosted an annual Disney Days event to reunite siblings who were separated in foster care for a magical day together at Disneyland each fall.
The reality of foster care is that there are very few foster homes able to accept sibling sets, especially groups of three or more, and so children are frequently separated from their brothers and sisters when placed in foster homes. Disney Days is a chance for these children to spend a day just being kids with their siblings at the Happiest Place on Earth.
I was thrilled to get an email this weekend announcing that Disney Days are back for 2022, and Together We Rise is looking for volunteers to help make the event possible. Volunteers are needed to help sponsor and chaperone groups of youth, provide meals and snacks, and to help with transportation logistics.
The 2022 event is Saturday and Sunday, September 24 and 25. Volunteer applications are open now, and all volunteers must be at least 18 years old. Visit the organization's website to apply. If you can't volunteer to attend the event in person, Together We Rise gratefully accepts donations to help make the day extra-special for these sibling groups—visit their website for more information.
Beyond the Berm – Knott's Berry Farm updates chaperone policy
I wrote last week about my experience with the new chaperone policy in effect at Knott's Berry Farm. Under the new policy, visitors under 17 years of age must be accompanied by a chaperone 21 years or older to enter either Knott's Berry Farm or the adjacent Soak City water park. The rule was initially in effect only on Fridays and Saturdays, but Knott's Berry Farm announced last week that it would also enforce the requirement on Sundays until further notice.
The park also increased the number of minors a chaperone may accompany from three to four, which somewhat eases the burden on parents with large families. The company did not may any change to the requirement that chaperones must remain with their party at all times. The company said it may add even more days to the policy in the future.
Read more about this policy as well as my personal thoughts in last week's Disneyland Resort Update.

We also recommend checking the convention calendar at the Anaheim/Orange County Visitor and Convention Bureau website. When looking at that site, remember to note both the number of people and the number of rooms resulting from each convention. A gathering of 25,000 people booking few room nights (indicating most will be driving in to the area for their meeting) can impact traffic around the resort much more than a crowd of 25,000 staying in area hotels. Of course, that second group is going to make finding a hotel room more difficult (and possibly more expensive), so it's best to book your own room as early as possible if you see that a big convention is in town during your trip.

Current Discounts and Promotions
Disneyland prices as of October 25, 2021.
Note: MousePlanet does not edit past Updates to reflect price increases; for up-to-date prices, check the most recent Disneyland Resort Update. Several current promotions offer discounted admission to the Disneyland Resort. For your convenience, we have grouped the discount offers based on the number of days the tickets are valid. Check out the category that best matches the amount of time you plan to spend at the resort, and pick the offer that works best for you. And keep those tips coming—let us know if you find a better or different offer, so we can share it with other readers!
This first section is a list of discounts on ticket-only purchases. Though it has become more common in recent years, Disneyland tickets are rarely offered at deep discounts unless you are a resident of Southern California or Northern Mexico. For residents outside that area, the best discounts available tend to be simple advance purchase discounts. If you know of any additional discounts, offers, promotions, or contests that should be listed in this section, drop us a line. Note, we are no longer listing offers from the Anaheim-Orange County Visitor & Convention Bureau, as their convenience fee negates any savings.
Don't get scammed! Never buy tickets from an unofficial or secondary outlet, such as through eBay or Craigslist. Never rent or purchase tickets from people approaching you outside the gates stating they have remaining days or leftover tickets. This practice is against the terms of use for Disneyland admission, and may result in denial of entry. It is also common for criminals to shoplift inactivated Disney theme park tickets from supermarkets to resell them. There is no way to determine if these tickets are valid until you try to use them to enter the parks. Only purchase Disney theme park tickets directly from Disney, an authorized seller, or travel agency like MousePlanet travel partner Get Away Today.

California Resident Ticket Offer
The California Resident Ticket is a 3-day, 1-park-per-day ticket that offers residents of California admission to either Disneyland or Disney California Adventure:
- The weekday ticket – starting at $249, three weekdays (Mondays through Thursdays only) between June 13 and September 15, 2022
- The any day ticket – starting at $299, three days (any day of the week, including weekends) between June 13 and September 15, 2022
You can use every day of the California resident ticket at the same theme park, or visit different parks on different days, but you can't use it to enter both parks on the same day.
The weekday ticket is $249 for ages 3 and up, this ticket is valid only Mondays through Thursday, and weekends are not included. The any day ticket costs $50 more, starting at $299 for ages 3 and up, but adds Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to your list of days.
For an additional $60, you can also upgrade the ticket to a park-hopper, which allows entry to both parks each day.
You can also add the paid Disney Genie+ service to your California resident ticket. Although you can upgrade all three days in advance for $20 per day (for a total of $60 for the three days), our recommendation is to pay for the service on the first day, after you enter the theme park. This will let you make sure the service provides a value for you, to decide whether you want to spend the extra money for your remaining days.
Tickets are available through the Disneyland website, or through MousePlanet travel partner Get Away Today.
There is no “fuse” on this ticket, which means that you can use the first admission on June 13 and wait until September 15 to use the remaining admission. However, remember that you must make a theme park reservation for each day that you want to use the ticket. Disney also warns that ticket sales may be paused or ended at any time, so it's probably best to purchase early so you're ready to make reservations as soon as they open for your desired travel dates.
Tickets expire on September 15, 2022, and have no holiday blackouts. This does mean that you could visit on the 4th of July with the weekday ticket assuming reservations are available.
Disney states that proof of residency is required for purchase and admission, and each resident can purchase up to five tickets per day.
