– Where Disneyland Resort Guide Map collectors can unite and fans can reminisce. A complete guide/checklist to all Disneyland & Disney California Adventure Guide Maps.
We’re almost coming to the end of 2025 and it’s time to look ahead to 2026 and what maps we think the Disneyland Resort will release and when. Here’s my predictions based off what they’ve announced so far. The blue font maps will only happen if they decide to change both park’s maps using the same time frames, if not the map noted before will continue. What do you think? Am I missing anything?
The HolidayTime season officially kicked off at the Disneyland Resort on Friday, November 14th and with that we get new maps. Both parks are featuring Mickey & Minnie on the cover in their park appropriate holiday outfits. These maps should be out until the HolidayTime season ends on January 7th. There is also a special Holiday shopping guide for Downtown Disney along with a “Festival of Holidays” booklet for the food festival at DCA for you diehard collectors. Happy Holidays!!!
Sorry for the delay in updating. Life has been busy. We got bridge maps on November 1st and they should be out until November 13th as HolidayTime starts on Friday, November 14th. Disneyland features a classic shot of Haunted Mansion Holiday while DCA went with a (tired) shot of the Pixar Fun Wheel.
New maps came out Friday, the 22nd for HalloweenTime at the Disneyland Resort. Disneyland features Mickey & Minnie in their new Halloween outfits in front of the Mainstreet pumpkin. DCA features the Miguel puppet from the Plaza de la Familia.
Disneyland also got a new regular map that reflects the addition of the Walt show and a great new cover of the 70th castle. DCA’s regular map stayed the same. I’m assuming these will stick around until HalloweenTime starts on August 22nd but if any new ones show up, please let me know.
The resort did not disappoint with awesome covers for the special one day 70th Birthday maps. Both maps open up to a poster size replica of the original Disneyland concept art with different background color schemes. Disneyland features Walt’s last picture ever taken in Disneyland before he passed. He is with Mickey on the Main Street fire truck. DCA features Walt back in the day with original Mickey Mouse stuffed animals.
The Disneyland 70th Birthday celebration kicked off at Disneyland and DCA today and with that we get some new classy maps. Disneyland features the Paint the Night lead float while DCA features the new World of Color “Happiness” on the cover. Both feature the 70th Celebrate Happy logo. I’m assuming these will be out until July 16th as new additions like the Walt Disney animatronic coming to the Lincoln Theater will open on July 17th, the true birthday of Disneyland. Still also keeping my fingers crossed for some special one day 70th maps like they did for the 50th and 60th.
Also, just a heads up, there are these new Family guides that were also released. Just a fun kids version of the regular guide map. Picture below. Word from the park is they’re not easy to obtain as the normal guide maps. You can get more info and see more pictures of them HERE AT WDWNT.COM
Star Wars: Season of the Force ended on Sunday, and with that, we get a new Disneyland Bridge map. It’s featuring Donald Duck in front of his Toon Town boat. This map should only be out for 4 days as the 70th Celebration starts on Friday. DCA is sticking with the existing Lightning McQueen map til Friday.
The Food & Wine Festival at DCA has come to an end and with that we get a bridge map which should stick around until the 70th Birthday event starts on May 16th. This one features Lightning McQueen in Cars Land at night which is a great new shot never featured on a map before. If my estimated schedule at the beginning of the year is accurate, the next new map should be a new Disneyland map on May 12th as Star Wars: Seasons of the Force ends on May 11th. That map should only be out for only 3 days until the 70th starts. Happy Collecting!
Star Wars: Seasons of the Force began at Disneyland on Friday, March 28th and with that we get a new map. It again features Mando on the cover but a new nighttime shot in Galaxy’s Edge with Grogu. It looks like they goofed on the code on the bottom of the map. Should be 032825 but they have 010725. These should stick around until the event ends on May 11th and then we’ll probably have only a 4-day “bridge” map until the 70th Birthday celebrations start on May 16th. DCA’s Food & Wine Festival will end on April 21st when we should get a little less than a month “bridge” map until the 70th begins there as well on May 16th. Happy Collecting!
