We’ve attended many Moonlight Magic occasions over time, however the final one we did at Disney California Adventure nonetheless ranks on the prime of my listing. The occasion featured numerous uncommon characters who had an absolute hoot taking part in video games with visitors, and the entire thing was extremely nicely completed.
Disney Vacation Club undoubtedly places effort into these Moonlight Magic events, and it’s good to see DVC exhibiting that it cares about current Members–particularly after a few years suggesting in any other case. I’m optimistic that the return of Moonlight Magic at Disneyland Resort will embrace just a few surprises, however I’m not anticipating something on par with the previous DCA occasions.
