Disney celebrates summer

From June 14 through September 1, Shanghai Disney Resort will transform into a magicool world of fun and festivities where guests can soak in all the summer surprises as they ignite their senses and imaginations.

For the first time ever, guests will hear greetings from Woody throughout all of Shanghai Disneyland as they carry out their summertime adventures. Bo Peep — Woody’s long-lost friend — will also find her way to Shanghai Disney Resort this summer and will be making special appearances and meeting with local guests for the very first time. From mid-June through the end of August, guests can also re-join the toys in Farmer Al’s Splash Around for a nice, cool dose of water-themed fun as part of this interactive seasonal offering.

This year, Duffy and friends will return to Duffy’s Splashing Pre-Parade to lead the daytime procession, Mickey’s Storybook Express. The lovable characters will be wearing all-new summer outfits as they join jovial dancers along the route and delight guests with a welcome bout of cool spritzes.

The fan-favorite Summer Blast Castle Show will once again be an ideal place for guests to cool off as they witness magical entertainment unfolding on stage. Popular Disney characters, world-class performers, eye-catching visuals and whimsical elements make this a summer spectacle not to be missed, plus waves of showery surprises add an extra element of fun and refreshment as guests escape the heat and revel in the summer fun.

To make the most of the sweet summer season, Shanghai Disney Resort will be offering multiple limited-time “Summer Afternoon Ticket” options for guests. It is valid after 4pm on a selected date from today through August 31. Guests who purchase the Summer Afternoon Ticket can also opt to receive individual cash coupons worth 30 yuan per (US$4.33) visit, drinks or ice cream purchases at specified locations on the date of their visit.
