    Shanghai Disneyland opened on 16 June 2016. The resort marked the 10-year milestone with “With You, It’s Magic+”<\/strong><\/a>, a celebration that kicked off on 20 March 2026 and runs for a full year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The headline addition is Heart of Magic<\/strong>, a brand-new stage show created for the anniversary. It’s performed on the Enchanted Storybook Castle stage, which gained three satellite stages and connecting bridges for the occasion. The nightly fireworks show, Illuminate! A Nighttime Celebration, has also gained a new “Wish” segment. Mickey’s Storybook Express parade now includes a Duffy and Friends pre-parade plus a Zootopia unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Anniversary extras across the resort include blue-and-gold themed decorations (star motifs, a giant “10” display, and a special Mickey floral arrangement at the entrance), exclusive Mickey and Friends and Duffy and Friends costumes, and limited-edition merchandise. Six quick-service restaurants are also serving a “Magic Wish Noodle” dish, a nod to the Chinese tradition of eating noodles for longevity on birthdays. The resort’s third hotel, the Disney Enchanted Star Hotel, is set to open to the public in winter 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
