This weekend, January 2-6, 2015, Disney California Adventure will once again finish off its popular “Disney ¡Viva Navidad!” event with its annual Three Kings Day Finale. Here to tell us more about it, is performer and Cast Member, Carlos Martinez, with musicians Josh Disan and Johnny Gomez:
A new addition to this year’s festivities is “The Spirit of Navidad,” a musical storytelling performance with bilingual performers who tell the story of Dia de Los Reyes while singing traditional holiday songs.
Along with the aforementioned Rosca de Reyes, there are a number of Mexican specialty foods available at the Paradise Gardens, such as pozole, torta al pastor, and champurrado. Toby Hollis, Area Chef for Pacific Wharf and the Boardwalk restaurants, demonstrated the making of buñuelos for us:
Of course all the spectacle and activity of ¡Viva Navidad! will still be ongoing, with character appearances by Fiesta Mickey, Minnie, and Goofy, and the Three Caballeros.
The ¡Viva Navidad! Street Party will also continue to enthrall people six times a day throughout the weekend.
Kids may also participate in arts and crafts, along with face painting and the making of paper crowns for Three Kings Day.
All this is only available at the Disneyland Resort until January 6th, so hurry out and enjoy the Three Kings Day offerings–rich in culture, food, music, and dance.
Just being a spellchecker for you. Josh’s last name is Disan, not Dishan (no ‘h’). He’s a friend of mine and wonderfully talented.
J–Thanks!
