Starting Might 16, 2025, and working via Summer time 2026, Disneyland Resort will host its seventieth anniversary celebration the place visitors of all ages can have fun completely satisfied whereas honoring seven many years of Disneyland. You’ll get to “have fun completely satisfied” with limited-time leisure, colourful décor, themed meals & drinks, and a lot extra!
A kind of “and a lot extra” issues is merchandise. No Disney anniversary celebration is full with out souvenirs, so let’s bounce proper into 4 all-new collections and much more which can be positive to thrill. And that is only the start! Along with these collections, there will probably be new drops arriving all through the year-long Disneyland seventieth Anniversary celebration.
Kicking off this reveal is the Celebration Assortment. This assortment options the basic Disney Parks model followers know and love combined with enjoyable colours, new character artwork, and designs of iconic Disneyland Resort points of interest. Additionally coming to this assortment are fan-favorite collaborations with Loungefly and Dooney & Bourke.

Right here’s a preview of the Disneyland seventieth Anniversary Celebration Assortment:
Impressed by Sleeping Magnificence Citadel at Disneyland park comes the Citadel Assortment, and as its title suggests it’s match for royalty. On this assortment you will discover lovely, pixie mud crammed attire and equipment, together with Disneyland Resort seventieth Anniversary jewellery by Rebecca Hook.
Listed here are a few these things:

This assortment options famed Disneyland quotes from Walt Disney whereas celebrating the heritage of Disneyland Resort. Collectibles inside this assortment are even much like what one might’ve discovered on Walt’s desk.
Right here’s the Walt Disney Nostalgia Assortment sneak peek:
There’s additionally jewellery and accent objects for this assortment from Bulova and Pandora. Beneath is a sneak peek of two objects – the Disneyland Resort seventieth Anniversary Collectible Pocket Watch by Bulova and the Disneyland seventieth Anniversary Citadel Dangle Appeal by Pandora.

And obtainable at choose areas all through Disneyland Resort will probably be all-new Pandora bracelet charms impressed by Sleeping Magnificence Citadel, the Disneyland brand, and Tinker Bell.
When it comes to commentary about these items, I don’t have an entire lot to say. Merchandise isn’t actually my factor, neither is style. Which is patently apparent in case you’ve ever seen a photograph of me. What I do know is that a number of of those collections–Vault, Citadel and Celebration–are an identical to these from Walt Disney World’s fiftieth Anniversary.
There’s additionally loads of overlap when it comes to particular designs. Disney appears to have ditched the Luxe Assortment, a sensible transfer provided that loads of these “upscale” and dear items ended up on the not-so-luxurious Character Warehouse Outlet for pennies on the greenback after the anniversary was over (nonetheless not low cost sufficient for me–I don’t suppose pricing was the first subject with these merchandise). A number of different fiftieth stuff additionally ended up being deeply discounted, however that was extra as a result of provide chain points and the stock not arriving on cabinets till nearer to the anniversary ending than its begin.
That drawback in all probability received’t repeat itself with the Disneyland seventieth Anniversary merchandise. We’ve already began to see stuff present up on cabinets and it’s, uh, actually one thing. Typically I wonder if Disney merchandise’s target market is people who find themselves colorblind. Once more, I’m not the most effective decide; my “model” is obvious polos. However this merchandise could be very vibrant and really loud. Cool for many who can pull it off, I assume, however that almost all undoubtedly isn’t me! I’m hoping there are just a few tasteful designs within the Vault or Walt Disney Nostalgia collections.
For these on the lookout for an all-new interactive expertise created only for the seventieth Celebration, visitors can ‘unlock the magic’ inside every of Disneyland’s 9 lands with the Key to Disneyland! With the Key to Disneyland, visitors can embark on an journey and activate particular options whereas visiting seventieth Anniversary lock stations in every land of Disneyland park.
Discover a seventieth Celebration Key to Disneyland lock station in every of those areas:

Better part, the important thing saves your progress permitting you to unlock lands at your leisure over the course of the seventieth anniversary celebration — all in at some point or unfold all through your go to.
This jogs my memory loads of “portals” that Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea have completed for previous anniversaries. These have been elaborate statues or kiosks (pictured above and under) situated across the park that work together with particular items of merchandise–normally a wand or Mickey-shaped system, with light-up results and so forth.
It’s attention-grabbing–however unsurprising–that Disneyland went this route versus making it a MagicBand+ characteristic as Walt Disney World did with its fiftieth Anniversary statues. Maybe Disney is lastly realizing that they’ll’t make fetch occur, and needs one thing that’ll really promote to Disneyland locals.
Collectors of Disneyland merchandise may also discover happiness with the Disneyland Resort seventieth Medallion Assortment. Accessible for buy all through Disneyland Resort as people or in bundles of 4, the two-sided medallions characteristic park icons, points of interest, characters and extra. Followers can count on 70 new designs, together with specialty releases and ranging kinds all through the seventieth celebration whereas provides final.
In the end, it seems to be like there will probably be one thing for everybody with the Disneyland seventieth Anniversary merchandise collections. I’d hazard a guess that 90% of these items received’t be to my preferences, which is completely comprehensible since center age dudes who put on boring polos are in all probability not the target market.
I not often purchase merchandise and that pattern received’t change even when there’s so much that I find yourself liking right here. The one different “observe” I’ll supply on that is that I hope the Vault and Nostalgia collections drop the “resort.” This isn’t the seventieth Anniversary of Disneyland Resort. It’s the seventieth Anniversary of Disneyland, Walt Disney’s unique magic kingdom.
