Disneyland To Reopen A Portion Of California Adventure On Nov. 19

Disneyland has announced a partial reopening for its theme park.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Disneyland announced it will be reopening a portion of California Adventure. Officials say they are looking to open the theme park doors, specifically Buena Vista Street, for visitors on Nov. 19; guests will be able to enjoy shopping and outdoor dining.

The theme park has already reopened the Downtown Disney District, but the rest of the park is still closed due to the current COVID-19 restrictions, the outlet reports.

Last month, it was decided that California Adventure would reopen some of the areas amid some back-and-forth between Gov. Gavin Newsom and Disney officials. Eight Southern California mayors reached out to Newsome in a joint letter asking him to reconsider the current restrictions on theme parks due to the corporation’s loss of money amid the pandemic. Hundreds of employees, some of whom have been out of work since the park’s initial,  have been called back out of furlough.

The Backlot Premiere Shop at Stage 17 has reopened along with Downtown Disney, which has been open since July. Before guests can enter, they will have to undergo a temperature test and are required to wear a proper mask. There will also be a capacity limit to help with social distancing.
