Ahead of July 4th, Disneyland Resort has a new red, white, and blue Americana mouse ear headband and matching tee. We found them both in the Emporium.
Loungefly Americana Ear Headband – $34.99
The headband is lined with light blue velour fabric. The outside of the headband and the ears are covered in white pleather.
The pleather is patterned with images of Mickey Mouse. He’s depicted in black and white except for his shorts, which are inspired by the American flag.
The American flag also inspired the Minnie bow between the ears. One half is dark blue with bright blue stars. The other half is striped red and white.
A metal tag on the side of the headband is blue. The Disney and Loungefly wordmarks are in silvertone lettering on the tag.
Disneyland Americana Tee – $29.99
This T-shirt is dark blue. Sleeping Beauty Castle is on the front, with a waving American flag superimposed over it. Red, white, and blue fireworks go off above and behind the castle.
There are also red, white, and blue stars among the fireworks. The Disneyland wordmark is at the bottom in white.

During a question-and-answer session at the MoffettNathanson Media and Communications Summit on Wednesday, May 15, Disney CEO Bob Iger stated that nearly all future investments into the Disney Parks will be IP-based.
Bob Iger and the Future of IP at Disney Parks
During the talk, Iger spoke with Michael Nathanson of MoffettNathanson about everything from streaming profitability to his tenure as CEO, and the strength of IP across The Walt Disney Company. Eventually, this conversation turned to Disney’s plans for the future across its businesses, including the Disney Parks.
It was here that Iger confirmed that, based on the successful returns of leveraging IP in the theme parks, “almost all” of Disney’s investment in the parks will be using IP.
And interestingly enough, if you look — if you analyze carefully how we achieve those returns on invested capital in the Parks, it was all about the IP. So, for quite a long time, new attractions in lands at the parks were based on essentially either very old IP or no IP, just an attraction.
And starting really with Cars Land and Toy Story and there are a few others, I can’t remember this, all the specifics, we decided that almost all of our investment in the parks in terms of attractions and lands would be using that IP. And it’s very, very clear what that delivers.
Bob Iger, CEO of The Walt Disney Company
This confidence in the strength of Disney’s vast library of IP to pull from clearly indicates the company’s mindset going forward when it comes to expanding the parks around the world. Just next month, a newly rethemed flume ride inspired by “The Princess and the Frog” will open at Walt Disney World, and a themed port featuring “Frozen,” “Peter Pan,” and “Tangled” will open at Tokyo DisneySea.
Iger is confident that interest in these stories is not lessening, and will only grow and be more valued by guests over time.
“But it’s very, very clear that the experience we deliver, whether it’s at a park or a cruise ship is an extraordinary experience that I think where the value is not going away, showing no signs of ebbing at all,” said Iger.
Fantasmic! finally makes its return to Disneyland next week, and two additional restaurants are joining the line-up of locations offering a dining package – River Belle Terrace and Rancho del Zocalo Restaurante. What’s Happening: As the Disney Eats account shared on Instagram, guests can now reserve their spot at River Belle Terrace or Rancho del Zocalo Restaurante for […]
