Speakers Return to Disneyland Parade Route After One Fell in Guest Path

Speakers and their support poles have returned to Disneyland Park after almost seven weeks. The poles were removed after one fell in a guest path in early April.

Disneyland Parade Route Speakers

People at Disneyland walking in front of a mountain-themed amusement park ride, with trees and a fence in the foreground.

The speakers can be seen along the park’s parade path. The poles and speakers themselves are “Go Away Green,” meant to blend in with the surrounding trees and foliage so they aren’t immediately obvious to guests.

A small, overgrown garden area with various plants and flowers, including white roses. In the center, a large stone is partially obscured by foliage. People are gathered in the background.

A fake rock still sits where the speaker pole that fell used to be. There were no reported injuries due to the incident.

A crowd of people gathers in a park-like setting with lamp posts and speakers visible. Backdrop includes large trees, a gazebo tent, and a castle structure partially visible in the distance.

Each pole has two speakers mounted at the top.

A sunny park with large trees, benches, and people walking and sitting. A cannon and a trimmed spherical bush are visible in the foreground. A brick building can be seen in the background.

Disney likely ensured all of the speakers and poles were secure when they reinstalled them.

A public speaker and lighting fixture are mounted on a pole next to a leafy tree in an outdoor setting.

Last year, a lamppost fell in Town Square, injuring multiple guests. If one of these speakers collided with someone, they could do serious harm.

The speaker poles are all in flowerbeds, not directly in walkways. But they’re tall enough that they could hit someone walking by if they fall.

New Sign and Windows Installed on Upcoming DVC Welcome Center at Disney California Adventure

A new sign and windows have been installed on the former Blue Sky Cellar at Disney California Adventure, which is becoming a Disney Vacation Club Welcome Home Center.

DVC Welcome Home Center Construction

A rustic building with a tiled roof has a sign reading "Golden Vine House" above a gated entrance. Ivy is growing on the stone exterior wall.

Construction walls went up around Blue Sky Cellar in late 2023. Over the walls, we can now see a small round wooden sign reading “Golden Vine House.” The Disney Vacation Club wordmark is in white at the bottom. It features blue filigree and a blue leaf at the top.

A stone building with arched windows covered in green ivy. To the left, there's a wall with a bright pink door and tan siding. An air conditioning unit is visible next to the building.

The building also has new windows, visible behind the 4Town Fav4*ites Pixar Fest Marketplace. There are panels behind the windows so we can’t see into the building.

Blue Sky Cellar replaced Seasons of the Vine when it opened in 2008 in the park’s original Golden State area. On and off for the next several years, Blue Sky Cellar featured exhibits about upcoming lands and attractions, like The Little Mermaid ~ Ariel’s Undersea Adventure, Cars Land, and finally Pixar Pier. It had not been open to guests since 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic shut down Disneyland Resort, although Disney Imagination Campus utilized the space. Disney Imagination Campus moved to the Beast’s Library at Sorcerer’s Workshop, closing the space to guests.
