BREAKING NEWS - “True Love Week” Celebrates The Magic Of Love At Disney Parks!

Well, what better word (other than ‘magic’) to describe what Disney is all about than the word ‘love.’ You see it all the time in their movies, cartoons, and TV shows and now you’ll be able to see this “magical” love in person at the only places where that love can come to life - Disney Parks.

Disney Parks’ marketing campaign called Limited Time Magic is continuing on with its 12 months of limited-time-only in-park only experiences with True Love Week.

As with all the past Limited Time Magic experiences that have occurred so far, you can expect to limited-time food, merchandise, and entertainment offerings all surrounding the theme of love. There will also be various decor changes and special photo opportunities that’ll make you remember that love for a long time.

And don’t think that this special week is just for couples, too folks! Disney Parks also have planned experiences that celebrate the love for family and friends too.

Although True Love Week will also be at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, you know we always like to highlight our favorite Disney Resort in California!

Here’s a list of what will be happening during True Love Week at the Disneyland Resort -

Floral Heart: A giant floral heart makes a sweet setting for a Valentine photo, in Town Square, Main Street, U.S.A. in Disneyland.
