Disneyland 50th Anniversary - May 4, 2005 Disneyland Press Event Package

Here's a special treat for my friends, subscribers, and viewers, a Disneyland 50th Anniversary video press kit that's totally worth seeing if you're a Disneyland fan or Disney history buff. Enjoy!

[@thomasdollins2334]

Walt was the man who was a storyteller and the man with dreams and all he ever wanted was kids, parents, aunts, uncles and grandparents to play, have fun and imagine their dreams in the future. Thank You Walt Disney who created this magical place and your movies who inspire us all.

Walt dinesy true creater hand dinesy he gave us wonderful place inspire all us

[@Yensid951927]

Having the ceremony as a culmination of those commercials with a stroke of genius marketing. Also, those moving characters on the floats in the parade are just next-level awesome.

[@elvis4ever74]

My husband and I went down there on this day, May 4th, our 23rd anniversary and found out that Disneyland was closed! We both said, "Disneyland never closes." It was by special invitation only. :( So we stayed another day and went the following day. I still remember my first time going in 1956. It is the most magical place on earth. RIP Walt Disney. Thank you for all the wonderful memories.

[@mickeymouse4134]

One of the most beautiful times in Disney history! The golden fiftieth anniversary! I’m sure my good buddy Walt would’ve been amazed by the all the dreams that he came true threw out these 50 years and beyond!

I was 10 when the 50th celebration began. It was a huge celebration that I doubt will ever be matched in Disney history. You're welcome! When I found it, I knew it would be something everyone would enjoy, so I decided to upload it. Thanks for watching!

I went there that year but not until October, they still had stuff everywhere for the 50th anniversary. I can't believe it's going to be 60 years this year. I could still be alive for the 100th!! Hoping and praying, hoping and praying!

Back in he 50th anneversery there was a new parade called: Parade of Dreams and a spectacular decorated castle with gold things XD,And to top it off a spectacular Firework show called: Remember Dreams come True telling about all Disney past and stories of Disney in general AKA: Pirate of carribean,Haunted mansion star wars etc. Plus more attractions go through into other Disney parks

Yeah it would be awesome, i still know people who dont know who oswald is. I agree oswald does need some more attention, hopeful he'll get it soon,

[@equalrights4men696]

I was there on that day 16 years ago and I'll be there when I'm 60yrs old on the 100th anniversary 😁

[@JoshuaDomoslai]

I remember being there. Was over to the left of the Walt statue torwards Adventureland/frontierland entrances. I remember lots of people booing Michael Eisner lol (music was cranked up for the video here). Was an awesome day. The Steve Martin stuff you watched instead of the stuff the President was really good while it lasted.

[@MsDisneylandlover]

seeing all the characters is so cool

[@RoxkSie]

Well that's all fine, the press release was 2006, you think they announce it the same day they sign the contract? no Oswald was exchanged in early 2005 with NBC Universal for sportscaster Al Michaels to release him from his working contract so that he could go work under Universals NBC Sport, the company saw Oswald as a fair exchange along with other assets they were aiming to obtain. The contract like many others, Disney being a Public company, their contracts are available to be seen

[@RoxkSie]

Where was Oswald in the welcoming home celebration? It was his welcoming home party seeing as the Disney company is now in ownership of him and has been from 2005. Awesome upload I enjoyed it a lot, but True Disney fans should be annoyed that Oswald appears to be excluded again from the celebrations.

[@sorcerermickeyfanguy6271]

Raise your hand if buzz lightyear ride is the best of the 50th! I wanna ride on it forever and meet him at Disney.

How about instead of pointing out all the things wrong with this statement, I'll just point out 1. Disney did not have the rights to Oswald back until Feb 2006, "True Disney Fans" know that

Very cool video

[@RoxkSie]

oh yeah totally. not saying it's a bad thing by any means, but just imagine how awesome it would have been if he had been the star of the celebrations like as the very last one to be welcomed home, that said they will probably do it, it's just a matter of time for when it happens. Everyone knows the Oswald is part of the Disney family, just imagine how awesome that would be where for once he's the star. because everyone loves mickey, but for one spot light it would be cool. right?
