The COVID-19 pandemic continues to cause struggles for Disney theme parks, but California Adventure is changing things up to get people back.

Starting in mid-March, the park will be opening for a limited-time ticketed experience focused on the food and beverage offerings from around the resort, the latest merchandise, and "carefully crafted" entertainment experiences.

Along with pandemic-friendly food and beverage experiences, the park will be bringing back 1,000 cast members to play all of your favorite Disney characters.

"What I’m most thrilled about is that this initiative — along with the recent reopening of our outdoor dining on Buena Vista Street — enables us to bring about 1,000 Cast Members back to work," said Potrock, "while that is clearly not all we want to accomplish, it’s a start."

This new experience comes as the park celebrates its 20th anniversary.

More details about the new experience are soon to come according to the initial announcement.

"With limited capacity and enhanced health and safety measures in place, guests once again will get to step into a magical Disney environment," said Portrock, "an environment that will provide memorable and fun experiences our guests are craving."
