What’s New at Downtown Disney: Signs of Theme Park Reopenings, New Ears, and MORE!

Disneyland remains closed, but that doesn’t mean we can’t head to Downtown Disney!

Downtown Disney District

We’re in Disneyland’s shopping and dining district to check out EVERYTHING new. So, without further ado, let’s dive into all the fresh news of construction and merchandise in Downtown Disney!

Downtown Disney Construction Updates

Disneyland Entrance

Let’s start with construction updates! We noticed some exciting changes at the Disney World entrance as Disneyland gets a few steps closer to reopening. We spotted new social distancing stickers placed outside the gates to the park on Tuesday.

That afternoon, a group of folks in business attire checked the markers out before entering Disneyland. On Wednesday, we spotted that the markers were still around!
