Magic Key Holders Can Celebrate Lunar New Year With A Special Photo Offering

Magic Key Holders can head to Silly Symphony Swings at Disney California Adventure for a special Lunar New Year photo-op with the stunning Paradise Bay and a wall of lanterns as a festive way to celebrate the occasion.

What’s Happening:

  • Magic Key holders who are visiting Disney California Adventure to celebrate all the Lunar New Year festivities can head to a special photo op just for them!
  • The Magic Key holder photo backdrop features a beautiful backdrop of lanterns combined with a new piece of art by illustrator Ann Shen.
  • The art, placed in front of the Magic Key holder with the lantern backdrop behind, is a stylized version of Mushu and Cri-Kee from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Mulan, marking the Year of the Dragon with the year 2024 embedded into the art as well.
  • Magic Key holders can find this stunning photo op located under the Silly Symphony Swings near Pixar Pier at Disney California Adventure.

  • Disney California Adventure is once again the center of the festivities for Lunar New Year at the Disneyland Resort, taking place from January 23rd – February 18th, 2024, celebrating with a joyous tribute to Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese cultures with a multicultural celebration filled with auspicious wishes for the new year.
  • In 2024, we celebrate the Year of the Dragon. The Chinese zodiac calendar plays a significant role in shaping the traditions, holidays and foods enjoyed in Asian communities all over the globe.
  • Guests will once again be able to meet with Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse in their festive attire, as well as Mulan and Mushu, and all new for this year: Meilin and Ming Lee from Pixar’s Turning Red. 
  • The centerpiece of the celebration will be “Mulan’s Lunar New Year Procession,” a vibrant performance hosted by Mulan and Mushu, that features dozens of spirited parade performers as they honor family, friendship, and the potential for a fortune-filled new year.
