The moment has finally arrived, and for many, it’s an emotional one. Disneyland turns 70 years old today. It’s a celebration of happiness shared across generations of families, all thanks to one man and a mouse. In honor of the special day, Disneyland has rolled out new décor, a comprehensive merchandise lineup, epic entertainment, and nostalgic tributes that remind us how it all began. And no matter where fans fall on the opinion spectrum, one thing’s for sure: we all love Disney.

Today, new elements will debut in honor of the celebration, undoubtedly sparking awe and wonder in those who travel great lengths for a taste of the magic. Friends will come together, families will spend time with one another… and that’s what it’s all about. After all, the entire premise of Walt Disney’s dream was his desire to spend quality time with his daughters. Disneyland is a place where people can unite over a common bond, and that in and of itself is a beautiful thing.

This year, in honor of the 70th anniversary, Disneyland is celebrating the countless ways it has been bringing smiles to guests’ faces for seven decades. To do this in the most genuine way possible, real families and friends were filmed as they experienced the magic of the parks. The result? Incredibly touching photos and videos that spark memories of our own special Disneyland experiences. So, let’s watch as Disneyland guests live out their moments in real time at the Happiest Place on Earth.
