What’s New in Disneyland: Just a Little Thing Called Galaxy’s Edge… PLUS Merchandise, Eats, and Construction Updates!
Disneyland Resort has been the place to be since last Friday, when Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge officially opened its weathered gates to visitors for the very first time in Disneyland Park. We were on hand to celebrate — and we’ve brought TONS of info, reviews, and insights over the past few days.

But Galaxy’s Edge isn’t the ONLY new thing to see at Disneyland Resort, so we’re bringing you everything else in this installment of What’s New at Disneyland!

Award Wieners was also on the Mickey’s Philharmagic snack bandwagon! This quick service spot is serving up Mickey Funnel Fries! These start with a base of cinnamon/sugar funnel fries and load on the toppings: blue whipped cream, sugar stars, Oreo Cookie Mickey ears, red berry glaze, and cookies-and-cream sauce.

It’s sweet on sweet — and super messy. Grab napkins.

What’s New in Disneyland Resort Construction
Although Galaxy’s Edge is complete — with the notable exception of the Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance attraction, of course! — construction persists in other areas of the resort. The Pixar Pals Parking Structure is coming along, with colorful pavers being laid on walkways and surfaces!

Marvel superhero land is… mostly still piles of dirt. But we’re going to keep watching it come to life (from our perch on the Pixar Pal-A-Round)!

We also took a look at the Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind from the Pal-A-Round. It’s progressing well toward its summer opening. Ride vehicle seats are in (though still under wraps).

When we pull further back, we see what we expect will transform into the covering over the queue (colorful objects on the left).

What’s New in Disneyland Resort Signs and Maps
Galaxy’s Edge was on everyone’s mind, of course, and signs at the resort’s entrance displayed three images of the new land.

And, we like to think, America’s pal, Captain America, looking like he’s ready to protect the country should those Galaxy’s Edge crowds get out of hand.

We think he… makes a point.
