Welcome Back to the Disneyland Resort


Crowds should be fairly light at Disneyland this week and will stay fairly light for the next few weeks. TouringPlans.com can help you navigate the parks with our per-park Crowd CalendarLines – Mobile Wait Times App that gives access to current and estimated wait times for attractions, and Touring Plans detailing the best plan of attack for hitting the attractions. Now more than ever, it’s a good time to subscribe to TouringPlans.com to plan your strategy to avoid the crowds!

Below are the predicted resort-wide crowd numbers for select days generated by the TouringPlans professional statisticians as measured for the upcoming week. For the access to the full year and per-park crowd level predictions, visit our Crowd Calendar.

Buena Vista Street Construction
With less than seven weeks before it opens to the masses, Buena Vista Street is really starting to look good.  The area still has a long way to go before its June 15th grand opening (and June 14th media event), but we are really starting to get a good look at just what Disney’s interpretation of Los Angeles circa 1930 will look like.

The view from the Monorail shows us some of the building details.  If you look just above the entrance to California Adventure, you’ll see the new Glendale-Hyperion inspired Monorail bridge.

Note the massive Cars Land rock work in the background

The Carthay Circle Theatre’s tower was covered back up this past week.  It appears this section is being resurfaced again.

The futuristic looking Monorail clashes with the art deco 1920′s / 30′s Buena Vista Street, however it is no more out of place than when traveling alongside Fantasyland, and here it only lasts a few seconds…we’ll get use to it!

Last week we reported the Hollywood Pictures Backlot elephants were removed.  Here is a few looks from the other direction.

Buena Vista Street Construction / Hollywood Land View

As you can see, the removal of the pedestals and elephants have really opened up the sight lines for the transition between Hollywood Land and Buena Vista Street.  This is most likely the reason for the removal of the Taste Pilots’ Grill jet as well.

But looking down Hollywood Blvd it is obvious that the Condor Flats sign needs to go as well.
