Experience Disneyland from Home: Celebrate 70 Years with POV Videos on Disney+
Disneyland, known as the happiest place on Earth, turns 70 this year, and to celebrate, Disney is offering a unique opportunity for fans and families alike. Starting July 17, you can relive the magic of iconic rides like the Haunted Mansion, Big Thunder Mountain, and Jungle Cruise all from the comfort of your living room. Disney+ will release point-of-view (POV) videos showcasing 10 attractions, five themed lands, and three nighttime spectaculars, allowing you to experience Disneyland as if you were there, even if the park is eerily empty.
What Rides Can You Enjoy?
The exciting lineup of POV ride videos includes classics that have been fan favorites for decades. Attractions such as the Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, Indiana Jones Adventure, and Jungle Cruise are among the highlights. For Disney California Adventure, thrill-seekers can enjoy POV footage of Radiator Springs Racers, the Incredicoaster, Soarin’ Around the World, and Pixar Pal-A-Round. This curated selection provides viewers with an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at these thrilling rides in a way that has never been experienced before.
Themed Lands: A Visual Journey
In addition to the rides, the celebration also incorporates themed land walkthroughs. Viewers can stroll virtually through iconic areas like Mickey’s ToonTown and Main Street U.S.A. at Disneyland, as well as Cars Land, Avengers Campus, and Hollywood Land at Disney California Adventure. These immersive experiences create a nostalgic atmosphere, evoking memories of the lively interactions and adventurous escapades typical of these beloved parks, all captured during periods when the parks were closed and devoid of visitors.
Nighttime Spectaculars: A Dazzling Display
One of the most magical aspects of Disneyland has always been its nighttime shows. As part of this special celebration, Disney+ will feature the stunning nighttime spectaculars, including the “Wondrous Journeys” fireworks show, the Paint the Night parade at Disneyland, and the “World of Color Happiness” show at Disney California Adventure. These videos not only showcase the dazzling display of lights, music, and fireworks but also provide a glimpse into the creative genius behind these large-scale productions that captivate audiences night after night.
A Professional Touch: Quality You Can Trust
Unlike the POV videos typically found on platforms like YouTube, which are often filmed by enthusiasts, these new releases come with a professional touch. Disney has carefully produced these videos while the parks were closed, providing high-quality footage that captures the essence of each attraction and land. This professional production ensures a smoother and more enjoyable viewing experience for audiences, allowing them to appreciate the artistry and detail that goes into making Disneyland a magical experience.
More to Explore on Disney+
This new release is an exciting addition to Disney+, which already features POV videos of attractions like Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Rise of the Resistance. The 14-minute Rise of the Resistance video takes viewers through the vast queue and immerses them in an adventurous ride experience. Meanwhile, the 13-minute Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge tour introduces fans to iconic characters like Rey, Chewbacca, and even Kylo Ren, bringing the galaxy far, far away right to their screens. With the 70th-anniversary celebration underway, there’s never been a better time to dive into the magic of Disneyland from the comfort of home.
In summary, as Disneyland marks its 70th anniversary, the release of these POV videos on Disney+ allows both new and seasoned fans to revisit the iconic attractions and rich storytelling of the parks. Whether you’re a die-hard Disney enthusiast or just looking for family-friendly entertainment, these videos promise to provide a captivating experience for everyone.
