Vanellope Von Schweetz takes center stage for the next Disney Pal-Palooza event at Tokyo Disney Resort: Vanellope’s Sweet Pop World.
Disney Pal-Palooza: Vanellope’s Sweet Pop World
Disney Pal-Palooza: Vanellope’s Sweet Pop World will run from January 15 through March 26, 2025. Vanellope from “Wreck-It Ralph” will reimagine Tokyo Disneyland as a world of sweets. This is the third Disney Pal-Palooza event following Minnie’s Funderland and Donald’s Quacky Duck City in early 2024.
The Mickey-shaped flowerbed at the entrance to Tokyo Disneyland will resemble a piece of candy with colorful swirls.
Inside World Bazaar will be pink and mint green archways. In the center is a photo op with Vanellope in a larger-than-life sundae including cookies, a doughnut, and a cherry on top.
The flowerbed in front of Cinderella Castle will include a “Welcome” sign, lollipops, and Chip ‘n’ Dale decorations.
A new daytime parade with six floats will feature Vanellope, Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy, Cinderella, Rapunzel, Belle, Alice, The Mad Hatter, Winnie the Pooh, and more Disney characters. Vanellope will ride on a candy castle float. Mickey will be on a fruit tart stage with a rock band playing candy instruments. And a gallery float of candy-inspired artworks will feature Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck as tour guides. The parade will be approximately 35 minutes with three show stops in Westernland, the Cinderella Castle Plaza, and Tomorrowland. It will be performed once per day.
Some Tokyo Disney Resort Vacation Packages will include viewing for Disney Pal-Palooza: Vanellope’s Sweet Pop World parade.
It wouldn’t be a sweets-themed party without some sweet treats. Plaza Pavilion Restaurant, Sweetheart Café, and Refreshment Corner will all be decorated for the event. They will start serving special menu items early on December 26, 2024.
At Plaza Pavilion Restaurant will be a dessert set including canelé, macarons, cookies, and donuts.
Sweetheart Café will offer a special Mickey-shaped Danish pastry dipped in pink raspberry sauce.
Refreshment Corner will have a special hot dog and a lemon cheesecake drink. The hot dog has red bread with white cheese sauce inspired by the Sugar Rush race course from “Wreck-It Ralph.” Colorful vegetable croutons represent Vanellope’s race cart. The lemon cheesecake drink features a rich, creamy flavor with a tangy lemon twist.
Vanellope’s Sweet Pop World merchandise will be available starting on January 14. Sweets-inspired items include bags, headbands, and other accessories.
Sweet Poppin’ Sticks inspired by lollipops feature swirly Mickey-shaped toppers on teal or purple wands.
During Vanellope’s Sweet Pop World event, guests can approach Cast Members holding a special bucket near World Bazaar or the Castle Forecourt and say “Happy Pal-Palooza!” to receive a gift of candy.
Various Vanellope’s Sweet Pop World offerings will be available at the Disney Ambassador Hotel and Tokyo Disneyland Hotel. The Disney Ambassador Hotel will offer rooms with Vanellope’s Sweet Pop World decorations like a waffle bedspread and lollipop wall art.
At Tokyo Disneyland, guests can enjoy a variety of augmented reality experiences bringing Vanellope’s Sweet Pop World to life.
From January 14 through March 31, both hotels’ restaurants will serve special menu items.
The Disney Resort Line will have Vanellope-inspired passes and souvenir medallions.
