Foodie Guide to Lunar New Year 2025 at Disneyland Resort

Get ready to ring in the Year of the Snake because Lunar New Year is coming back to Disneyland Resort! From Jan. 17 to Feb. 16, 2025, join in on this joyous (and tasty) celebration honoring Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese cultures. All throughout Disney California Adventure Park, take part in the festivities with characters in their Lunar New Year attire, lively entertainment, the Lunar New Year Wishing Wall, and plenty of delicious bites.

The culinary teams have drawn inspiration from these cuisines to bring you a can’t-miss line up to kick off the Year of the Snake. With returning delights like the beloved Garlic Noodles and Strawberry Milk Tea Macaron, to soon-to-be favorites like the Spicy Gochujang Chicken Tacos and the Snake Sourdough Bread, you’ll be going into this year full and satisfied!

For greater value on your foodie travels, you can choose to purchase a Sip and Savor Pass. This scannable pass, available in six digital coupon versions, can be redeemed for select bites and non-alcoholic beverages from the Lunar New Year Marketplaces and participating dining locations in Disney California Adventure Park. You can even use it throughout the entirety of this year’s festival and share with your friends and family. The passes this year are available in three new, limited-edition, collectible designs that pay homage to either Chinese, Vietnamese or Korean cultures—and feature some of your favorite Disney characters in culturally-inspired outfits designed by artist Ann Shen. When you purchase your pass at locations including Elias & Co., Julius Katz & Sons, and Seaside Souvenirs, let a cast member know which limited design you want!

And for those wanting a simple way to pay as you snack, try the festival-themed Disney Gift Cards. Simply load it and wear it on your wrist for quick and easy scanning when you purchase all your festival favorites. These can even be used to purchase a Sip and Savor Pass!

Without further ado, I think it’s time we get to my favorite part – the food! Here is your first look at all the tasty bites and sips coming to this year’s Lunar New Year Celebration at Disneyland Resort.
