Disneyland Photo Update - March 16, 2026

Last Friday I did a "Nerd Disneyland Photo Day" in the parks so that means for the first time in a LONG time, we have a Disneyland photo update for you. In fact, I'd say in the 13 years we've had this site we've probably only done 10 or 20 Disneyland updates. We typically leave those to the other sites that are there weekly. 

​But let's have some fun! 

We'll start off in Downtown Disney where Porto's has really taken over a large area outside of World of Disney.

It would have been nice if they'd gotten this walkway open even a little bit prior to Spring Break crowds. Bring your patience if you're coming to this area. It's crazy packed.

Our first stop was DCA, the park is looking lovely for spring.

Had some fun with camera settings around the parks. More of that below.

Progress on Avengers Campus expansion. I hope this isn't the final look.

I knew it reminded me of something. =)

They have repurposed the FastPass machine area near Guardians as an expanded seating area. This is very much needed. I still don't get why they haven't done this in the Hyperion Courtyard if they aren't going to use the theater.

Grizzly River Run is still closed for it's refurbishment. It would have been nice to see it reopen this week for "OMG once in 100 year heat wave" (that happens every year in March).

From this side it almost looked like the refurb was close to being done

But on this side it looks like lots of work still to be done

I do wish they'd trim some of the trees around the Grizzly so you can see it better from around the park. It is the parks icon.

Over at Disneyland, they've updated the floral arrangement to Minnie Mouse to celebrate Women's History Month. We love this.

Main Street is under refurbishment from Carnation Café to Coke Corner.

Photo Fun

I know it's nerdy and probably shows my age a bit, but I always enjoy having fun with the camera settings when I take the "good" camera. (It's really not that great). But I had fun taking these shots, so hope you all enjoy them.

I wish I was more prepared for this shot, just lucked out that both trains were there.

That's going to wrap it up, no video for this update. It was nice to just go old school with this one. Hope you all enjoyed!
