Disneyland Celebrates 63 Years of Magic With 63 Disney Characters! (Photos and Videos)

On July 17, 2018, Disneyland celebrated its 63rd birthday. The birthday was celebrated with two cavalcades that made their way through the parade route at Disneyland. The two cavalcades took place at 2:50 and 5:25 pm. Each cavalcade had four stops along the parade route. The cavalcade was comprised of 63 characters, the omnibus, the Dapper Dans of Disneyland and the Disneyland Band director. At each stop, Walt Disney’s Disneyland dedication speech was played before a rendition of Happy Birthday was sung. Then the characters made a circle around the Omnibus allowing the guests in attendance the opportunity to see each character.
