A Magical Surprise for Guests
As the gates opened, a Japanese family who has held Magic Access membership joined the Disneyland Band to perform the 20th anniversary theme song “The Most Magical Party of All”.

It symbolizes the deep emotional connection between HKDL and its guests, many of whom have grown up with the resort being part of their lives.
“For two decades, Hong Kong Disneyland has been a leading tourism driver through world-class storytelling, unforgettable guest experiences and an unwavering commitment to the community," said D'Amaro.
