While Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure are still closed and Disneyland’s hotels have asked guests through September 5th to reschedule, Downtown Disney, the Disneyland Resort’s shopping and dining district, is OPEN for guests!

We took a little stroll through Downtown Disney to do a little shopping (duh!) and to see what’s new! Come along with us!

Disneyland Construction Update

Emporium

OK, TECHNICALLY, our first big update from Downtown Disney is actually from the Disneyland Esplanade. While Disneyland Park is still closed with no reopening date, we couldn’t help but take a little peek through the gates.

And when we DID, we noticed that the Emporium on Main Street, U.S.A. was undergoing some construction!

Of course, we couldn’t get a closer look at those rafters to see what was going on. And while we know that they’ve been working on the Avengers Campus over at Disney California Adventure, it’s good to see that things are happening inside Disneyland Park too!

Downtown Disney Dining Updates

La Brea Bakery Cafe

After closing its doors along with the rest of Downtown Disney in March due to the global health crisis, La Brea Bakery has officially REOPENED!

You can once again rejoice in carb-y options at La Brea Bakery Cafe, with their all-day brunch, which includes Pecan-Stuffed French Toast, Breakfast Croissants, and Blueberry Pancakes.

Due to regulations in California, La Brea is only open for outdoor dining on the patio. Their hours are 10:30AM to 8:00PM on Monday through Thursday and 10:30AM until 9:00PM on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

Downtown Disney Merchandise Updates

World of Disney

No visit to Downtown Disney is complete without stopping into World of Disney, and there was PLENTY to see there, because HALLOWEEN HAS ARRIVED!

We’ve already spotted so, so much Halloween merch over at Walt Disney World, but there’s some stuff that has a distinctive Disneyland flair to it! For instance, there’s this 2020 Disneyland Halloween kids tee, featuring magician Mickey, jester Goofy, and vampire bat Donald Duck sneaking around the jolly giant pumpkin that sits on Main Street! This not very scary T-shirt cost $24.99.

If your kiddo is more like us and knows Halloween is all about the candy, then this gray Halloween Tricks and Treats 2020 Disneyland tee is for them! Featuring vampire Mickey, vampire bat Donald, skeleton Pluto, Chip ‘n’ Dale as pirates, and jester Goofy as well as a BIG kettle of candy, this shirt tells a story. And it can be yours for $24.99.

Because no Disneyland event would be complete without a spirit jersey, we thought this sparkly orange Disneyland Resort Halloween spirit jersey was the perfect thing for fall! And, yes, that is candy spelling out Disneyland! How cute!

There were plenty of sweatshirts and long sleeve shirts perfect for the chillier Halloween season at World of Disney! Like this 2020 Disneyland Resort Halloween Mickey sweatshirt!

And if Mickey pumpkins are more your style, you’re in luck! This gray Mickey pumpkin hoodie is so cute! it costs $54.99.

This long sleeve Halloween Disneyland shirt may look pretty normal at first…

But, there’s a secret on one sleeve… a happy lil Mickey pumpkin! This shirt is also $54.99.

Nightmare Before Christmas fans can also find some holiday fun with this long sleeve Disneyland tee.

It has Jack on one sleeve…

…And Sally on another! This shirt costs $39.99.

Can’t get enough Nightmare Before Christmas this Halloween?! That’s fair! This Disneyland sweatshirt with a pocket looks like your normal theme park merch from the front…

But it also features Jack Skellington on the sleeve! 

This very crazy sweatshirt is $44.99.

We’re pretty partial to the Mickey Premium Bar!

Halloween didn’t just strike at World of Disney, it came to The Disney Dress Shop too!

Check out Oogie Boogie himself on the bottom, which his roulette wheel.

This dress is PERFECT for the Halloween season, and will set ya back $128.
