Hey is anyone else getting this issue when trying to buy tickets? We tried from two phones and two computers and multiple different cards, Visa, discover and Mastercard and we keep getting the same issue
The last time I was in DisneySea in the summer, I put a wish on the "Wishing Place" Tanabata tree. Everyone seems to celebrate Tanabata on a different day, but today, August 19, 2026 is officially the 7th Day of the 7th Month of this Lunar Year, so happy Tanabata.
Here are some fun facts from the internet:
If you want this cool wallpaper for your phone or PC, you can download it here: https://www.tokyodisneyresort.jp/en/tdr/wallpaper.html
Did you also grow up celebrating this festival in your home country? It is very romantic!
Basically a magazine (or magazine/book = mook) for kids that comes with those free gifts like a small handbag .
I don’t think it was Disney fan which seems more for adults?
I remember it costs about 1200 yen.
I can’t find it on Amazon Japan.
It is for USA kids who want to go to Japan. I remember 2 weeks ago one cover was like basic Disney and other was frozen on the cover .
Thank you
Will be visiting this week with family and relatives coming from all around this week but I also heard that Chiba got pounded by rain and floods causing major delays in regular transportation in the area.
Anybody know if Disney fully recovered or if any rides are canceled? Anything?
I Just wanted to talk about my feelings few days ago.
I’ve only been to Disneyland Paris before, and I went to Tokyo DisneySea first time about ten days ago.
Tickets are crazy cheap, and also for the food here, which is super budget-friendly.
Fantasy Springs is absolutely amazing. I really love this place. They have giant statues, Rapunzel’s tower, Elsa’s ice palace, plus Arendelle and Tangled themed restaurants. Honestly, just walking around and taking in all the insane little details was already so satisfying. The vibe there was amazing.
For the bad stuff.
The crowds are out of control. If you don't buy DPAs, you can basically only do like one popular ride a day. And they don't even open Single Rider when it's packed.
Also, the weather was pure suffering. That’s probably on me for underestimating Tokyo summer heat, but note to self: never go to an Asian Disney park in the middle of summer.
Then the whole app stuff is so terrible. I couldn't scan my ticket on the app. I was traveling solo, didn't print my ticket out, and couldn't scan a friend's phone. Because of that, I couldn't use the app to book any restaurants, and had to constantly ask staff for helping.
The shows are so less, and 1 of them I have to win a lottery to watch. I really wanted to see Dreams take Flight, but I didn't win it. I was quite sad about missing out on Merida and Pocahontas.
Fireworks also seem to get canceled so easily. I didn't see it, and it just cancelled recently.
Another thing—it barely feels like Disney. Outside of Fantasy Springs, the whole park lacks of Disney vibes. Maybe Arabian Coast has a little bit, but that's it.
I have a Japanese friend told me that he hang out with friends there around every 1 or 2 years. They just went there for some attractions while chatting, have popcorn and ice bar, and not mind too much about how long the line is. I feel like the culture is so different.
After all, the experience is still pretty good, but it requires a huge amount of works, some luck, and extra cash to actually enjoy it.
I still want to go to Tokyo Disneyland. As for sea, I'm not sure.
I’m allergic to tree nuts but unfortunately, not all tree nuts are in Japans top allergens. Only cashews, macadamia nuts, almonds, and walnuts are listed but I’m allergic to all tree nuts — pecans, hazelnuts, etc. I will go to the allergen page, select all the tree nuts they have listed, and meals will pop up that clearly have tree nuts, like hazelnuts. In the U.S. eating at Disney is easy because all of these are listed under the “tree nut allergen,” but here, I don’t know whether or not there’s other nuts.
How do you handle this in Tokyo Disneysea/land? Especially for counter-service / buffet style?
Thank you!!
My absolute favorite cold-weather comfort food, the "Cream of Mushroom Soup with Truffle Accent" (or "truffle soup" as I call it), is making its return at Ristorante di Canaletto from Sep 15 2026!
Also, while scrolling through the new menu, I spotted this Pancetta and Turnip Top Pizza and only after a closer look did I realise… there’s a Mickey there! I’m not sure if it officially counts as a “Hidden Mickey”, but it’s definitely hiding in plain sight.

The two new Tomorrowland rides at Tokyo Disneyland are now officially named, together with a bespoke microsite:
https://www.tokyodisneyresort.jp/treasure/tomorrowland_2027/en/
There are no material updates concerning when they are opening, the dates published are similar to previously noted during financial results reporting (but at least we know Space Mountain is calendar year 2027 meaning before 12/31 rather than fiscal year 2027 which runs to end of March 2028):
Sugar Rush: Sweet Rescue
"This indoor attraction, themed after the Disney movie "Wreck-It Ralph," is an interactive game that can be enjoyed by children and adults alike.
To save the world of "Sugar Rush," a racing game set in a candy kingdom, which is in danger of being destroyed by a glitch created by King Candy, the "Sugar Bugs," guests enter the game world and join forces with familiar characters from the movie, such as Ralph and Vanellope.
Immerse yourself in the colorful game world and enjoy restoring the Sugar Bugs to their original cute candy forms, such as gummies and cupcakes."
Space Mountain Earthrise
"Space Mountain Earthrise is an all-new indoor roller coaster-type attraction that takes guests on an unforgettable journey through outer space, featuring brand new architecture and a newly developed ride system that combines imaginative storytelling and immersive theatrical effects inspired by the wonders of space.
From there, guests can enjoy a dynamic and immersive experience through the cosmos unlike ever before, with special light and sound effects inspired by various space phenomena. Additionally, in a first for roller coasters at Tokyo Disney Resort, the ride vehicles will come equipped with an onboard audio system. The attraction’s exterior incorporates curved features designed after the movements of celestial bodies and forms found in nature, such as trees and flowers — an expression of the connection between space and nature."

Never managed to get the Rapunzel light up lantern popcorn bucket, but this new light up one is pretty cute too! 😍
It’s coming on 17 September 2026 for ¥3,800 and will be available at both Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea.
The “Pumpkin with a Ghost” bucket is also returning this year for ¥3,400, from 15 September, but that one is exclusive to Big Pop. I think I will resist the temptation and skip this old one and go for the new bucket this time! 🎃✨

The Halloween 2026 menu has been announced, on sale during the Halloween event, 9/16 to 10/31, 2026.
You can never go wrong with the bright orange Maple Pumpkin Churro, but this year I also have my eyes on their Pumpkin Soft Serve.

last minute decision to book DisneySea this Saturday- i looked at the weather and its most likely going to rain. Has anyone else experienced DisneySea in the rain but in august? Is it still pretty hot and is there still a lot of people (aka still have to go early to get into the park)? I just want to manage expectations ((:
Thank you!!
Those Tokyo Disney folks can always be trusted to issue hilariously hard to understand “safety” posters every season, but here we are for the summer.
So what’s the story on this one? Did Pluto get his tail caught in the door again? Did Minnie leave Mickey behind on the monorail (kidding, obviously he should know to get off)? Or did Minnie forget half her luggage on the monorail? Judging by how Minnie’s practically leaping, I’m betting it was Mickey?

Hey all,
Taking my family to Tokyo this holiday season and trying to decide whether to go for DisneySea a little earlier in our trip (Dec 21 or 22) or at the very end (Dec 29). I know this will be a busy time (when isn't). I've lived near Disney in Florida and California so very used to a crowded day - but in the interest of funmaxxing, which time is likely to be more crowded? When the Christmas decor is up or in the week leading to New Years?
