Royalty Arrive for the Royal Processional and Ball at Disneyland After Dark: Sweethearts’ Nite

The Disney Princesses hosted a Royal Ball and Procession during the first Disneyland After Dark event of the year – Sweethearts’ Nite.

What’s Happening:

  • The Royal Processional makes its way through Disneyland Park, inviting guests to join them along the way, ending at the Royal Ball near "it's a small world."
  • Featured during the processional are characters from Cinderella, including Cinderella herself riding in a pumpkin-shaped carriage along with her Prince.
  • Other characters also arrive by horse-drawn carriage, including Aladdin and Jasmine, Aurora and Phillip, Rapunzel and Flynn, and even the Ugly Stepsisters and Stepmother.
  • Following the Processional, the Royal Ball takes place, where lovebirds are invited to dance along with the Disney royalty near “it’s a small world.” And it’s all hosted by the Fairy Godmother and the Grand Duke from Cinderella.
