Paint the Night completed its Disneyland 70th Anniversary run with its final scheduled performance on Thursday, August 20. Disneyland Resort moved into Halloween Time on Friday, August 21.
Paint the Night's Final 2026 Performance Was August 20
Paint the Night and Wondrous Journeys ran through August 20, before Halloween Time began August 21. That made Thursday's parade the closing performance of the limited-time 70th Celebration run.
The 70th Celebration Parade Used Pixar and Frozen Floats
During the 70th Celebration, Paint the Night was an illuminated parade with more than one million lights and floats tied to films including Monsters, Inc., Cars, Toy Story, The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Frozen. Anna and Elsa appeared on the Frozen Fractals float during this run.
Halloween Time Replaced the Anniversary Entertainment Schedule
Halloween Time began across Disneyland Resort on August 21 with seasonal entertainment, decorations, and the Haunted Mansion Holiday overlay. Guests planning a future Disneyland evening should use the official entertainment calendar for current parade and nighttime spectacular dates.
