Major Change Coming to Paint the Night Parade Next Month

Paint the Night at Disneyland will change its operating schedule beginning in late October 2025.

Paint the Night Performance Change

Beginning on October 27, Disneyland will close at 10 p.m. on weekdays instead of 11 p.m. As such, Paint the Night will only be performed at 8:30 p.m.

The parade will still be performed twice on weekends (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) at 8:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., when the park will stay open until 11 p.m.

This schedule will likely continue until the parade ends performances for the year. It’s last 2025 performance will be on November 9 but it is expected to return in 2026.

Paint the Night parade returned to Disneyland this summer for the park’s 70th anniversary. It initially debuted in 2015 for the park’s 60th anniversary celebration. Watch our 2025 video of the parade below.
