Disneyland Halloween Foodie Guide 2024

August 7, 2024
It’s time for guests to grab their appetites and let the ghoul times roll because Halloween Time is kicking off soon at Disneyland Resort. Starting August 23, ghostly goodies will materialize across the resort along with frightful fun and décor to get guests in the spirit.
The culinary teams will cast a spell on guests’ taste buds with their ghostly delights. This year, there are a (skele)ton of new and returning bites guests won’t want to miss. From sweet delights, like the new Caramel Apple Cheesecake at Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe or the returning Ursula Shake from Schmoozies!, to savory selections like the Villainous Double Cheeseburger at Smokejumpers Grill, it’ll be hard to decide “witch” treats to try!
For a sweet twist on a classic attraction, guests can drop in to Haunted Mansion Holiday, where this beloved home to happy haunts is transformed by the Pumpkin King himself – Jack Skellington – with décor inspired by Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. Nestled within the mansion, guests can follow the sweet smell of gingerbread and they’ll find an all-new mesmerizing display within the attraction itself!
Over at Disney California Adventure Park, guests can join in the festivities of Día de los Muertos with Plaza de la Familia from Aug. 23 through Nov. 2, 2024. This joyous occasion features the love of family with unique photo opportunities, a memory wall where guests can share their own memories, live performances and character greetings inspired by Pixar’s “Coco,” and, of course, some delicious bites.
