What is Happening to Walt Disney's 1st Theme Park? Disneyland #197

Please Follow and share our blog for new and exciting news and information on all things Disney. Marvel, Star Wars, Fox, Pixar, D23 Expo, and All future Entertainment happening in the Disney Parks. Cosplay ect.

2020 has been a bad year for the entire planet, Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, which has taken over our world, killing millions of people, unemployment, closing restaurants, malls, church gatherings, Expos, comic cons, movie theaters, Cruise lines and travel ect.. and yes even our beloved theme parks, No not just Disney... but all amusement parks.

As the covid-19 had spread it had even closed countries borders and had all of the people shelter in place. Well almost all countries. Not the United States.

As the world tries to reopen, and get things back to a semi normal life, The Disney Theme Parks have all opened fully, except the Disneyland Resort. Disney had furloughed everyone back in March, saying "Dont worry your jobs are secure" when we open up you'll have your jobs to come back to.

Well now Knott's Berry Farm hasn't reopened its rides or attractions, They still have the outside open to eat in and go shopping. Just recently in the past few months, they are selling tickets to special foodie events inside the park. the latest is Fall-O-Ween and you can dress up.

But Not The Disneyland Resort.... except for downtown Disney shopping.

Who is to blame? our Governor? or the Walt Disney Company?

Just Last week The Disney Company laid off over 28,000 Cast members, Musicians, and Hotel Cast Members, Disney Fine Artists, claiming they would let go the part time people. NOT True!!!

I know of at least two fulltime employee's who were FIRED!

It's time for Disney to stop this madness!!

If and when Disneyland Resort in Anaheim ever reopens, Will people (Guests) ever return?

What are your thoughts? We want to hear from you!!!

Knotts is doing it right! Live Summer Nights music is back...The bands we love will be playing all summer long at Knotts! #194

OMG!!!

Yes this is probably how  Krazy Kirk ( a.k.a. Billy Hill ) felt when he heard that his old buddies from  The Disneyland Resort were coming to his territory  Knott's Berry Farm this summer.

The summer adventure continues long after the sun goes down, with an all-new nighttime summer party that will liven up the night. Beginning June 7 (Tonight) - August 11th, Knott's Summer Nights offers numerous ways to enjoy the nighttime festivities as live music, food and games take over the Knott's midway.

Live Entertainment

Tomasina

Our live entertainment will feature a variety of bands including Suburban Legends, Hiatus (formerly known as The Mad T Party Band) and Suffragettes among others that rotate during the event nightly. Rock out to a top 40's band at the Calico Mine Stage and bop to beats of the Boardwalk DJ around Charleston Circle Fountain. Oversized classic games and festoon lighting will set the stage for guests to enjoy their summer nights at Knott's, while the Knott's Party Crew encourages good ol' fashion fun with games and competitions that will bring out the competitor in everyone

So before I post more what Knott's Berry Farm shows on their website. I thought I would let you all know and everyone who loved those Disney bands. Knott's, Great job!! I hope you dont mind the crowds, because you are going to be hit with a wave of people who loves those bands, but couldn't get to their venues where they were/are playing. Which I am sure you already know. By getting Billy Hill and the Hillbillies from Disneyland. Now they are the Krazy Kirk and the Hillbillies.
I want to thank the former President of Disneyland Matt Ouimet,

President of Cedar Fair /KBF

Former President of the Disneyland resort Matt Ouimet

for bringing those bands to Disneyland and now bringing them to Knott's Berry Farm's Summer Nights.

Guests can enjoy a variety of bands that rotate at the Calico Park stage nightly, rock out to a top 40's band at the Calico Mine Stage or bop to beats of the Boardwalk DJ around Charleston Circle Fountain.

A summer night party is not complete without an abundance of food and drinks, and no theme park does food quite like Knott's. Seasonal flavors collide as the Knott's culinary team creates tasty twists to classic summer favorites. Food Tasting Card

The Knott's Summer Nights Tasting card provides samplings of delicious one-of-a-kind summertime items at select locations throughout the midway for only $35.  Most locations and items are available from 6:00 p.m. until park closing. Must be 21 and older for alcoholic beverages.

With a hub of live music, unique summer food offerings, Instagram-able photo opportunities, interactive experiences, and family-friendly games, Knott's Summer Nights will be an event to remember.

I have a annual pass to Disneyland, but with the way the prices are getting out of hand, not to mention the crowds. I am totally thinking about getting a Knott's Pass with them starting as low as $116 for the year.
Anyway we Hope to see you at Knott's Summer Nights.

You can check out the times and nights of your favorite bands will be playing : https://twitter.com/knotts

I'm sure these bands will be a Big Hit just like the followers of the Hillbillies could tell you.
