Celebrate Halloween Time Disneyland Resort 2025 with festive attractions, Día de los Muertos, fall dining, and seasonal fun for the whole family.
The fall season has arrived, and with it comes one of the most beloved celebrations of the year — Halloween Time Disneyland Resort. Running now through October 31, 2025, the entire resort has transformed into a festive destination filled with pumpkins, seasonal décor, specialty food, and family-friendly frights. Guests will also discover celebrations of Día de los Muertos, fall character dining, and even touches from the ongoing 70th Anniversary Celebration.
Classic Halloween Attractions and Décor
Disneyland Park welcomes guests with the return of the giant Mickey pumpkin on Main Street, U.S.A., a must-have photo opportunity that has become an icon of the season. Inside the park, the Haunted Mansion Holiday overlay inspired by Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas once again delivers ghoulishly good fun.
At Disney California Adventure Park, guests can enjoy three seasonal attraction transformations:
- Luigi’s Honkin’ Haul-O-Ween
- Mater’s Graveyard JamBOOree
- Guardians of the Galaxy – Monsters After Dark
As night falls, the skies light up with the “Halloween Screams” nighttime spectacular, complete with fireworks on select evenings. Younger guests will love Mickey’s Trick and Treat show, while those looking for something extra can join Disney’s Happiest Haunts: The Villains’ Trail Guided Tour.
Halloween Time Disneyland Resort: Resort-Wide Activities
Halloween Time Disneyland Resort also brings back Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit, where guests purchase a themed map and then hunt for character-inspired pumpkins hidden around both parks and Downtown Disney District. Completing the quest earns a special keepsake.
The Halloween spirit continues in the Downtown Disney District with seasonal décor, live entertainment, and tasty fall treats. A new addition this year is weekly Halloween movie nights every Wednesday from September 24 through October 31, 2025, on the Downtown Disney Live! stage and lawn, paired with a themed sweet treat cart.
Plaza de la Familia Celebrates Día de los Muertos
Through November 2, guests can enjoy Plaza de la Familia, a vibrant celebration inspired by Pixar’s Coco. Taking place in Disney California Adventure Park, the event features live performances of The Storytellers of the Plaza de la Familia Celebrate the Musical World of Coco, themed craft activities, colorful displays, and delicious Mexican cuisine at Paradise Garden Grill. Miguel even makes special appearances as a hand-animated dimensional figure. At Disneyland Park, Frontierland pays tribute with skeleton figures, marigolds, and traditional ofrenda decorations near Rancho del Zocalo Restaurante.
Seasonal Dining and Hotel Magic
Guests visiting the Hotels of the Disneyland Resort can continue their Halloween fun with seasonal experiences. Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa features a stunning confectionery display and new character dining offerings, including Mickey’s Autumn Adventures Breakfast Buffet and Clarabelle’s Enchanted Halloween Dinner.
At the Disneyland Hotel, Goofy’s Kitchen Celebrates Halloween is back, and the new Broken Spell Lounge serves a villain-inspired cocktail menu. Spa-goers can also enjoy limited-time treatments at Tenaya Stone Spa.
Blending the 70th Celebration with Halloween
While Halloween Time Disneyland Resort is the highlight of the season, the Disneyland Resort 70th Celebration continues as well. Guests can catch the dazzling Paint the Night parade, see the Tapestry of Happiness on “it’s a small world,” and enjoy World of Color Happiness! on select evenings.
Throughout the resort, decorative enhancements, photo opportunities, and MagicBand+ experiences extend the anniversary fun.
