As the first freelance artist to have his own signature line, Maruyama’s work is found on merchandise throughout the parks. “I was the first one, luckily, to have a signature line,” says Maruyama. “Mine was kind of a test to see if this would work.

Children running through gate of Sleeping Beauty's Castle at Walt Disney's theme park, Disneyland. Allan Grant/The LIFE Picture Collection via Getty Images Disneyland's opening day was "disastrous" by many accounts — the park wasn't quite ready for visitors, it ran out of food and drinks, counterfeit tickets led to unexpectedly large crowds, and shoes even got stuck in freshly laid asphalt in 100-degree California heat. Despite all these issues, Disneyland's opening day will be forever remembered as a turning point in the amusement park industry's history, kicking off the wildly successful Disney Parks empire that has since evolved into a cultural phenomenon. The 65th anniversary for "The Happiest Place on Earth" wound up being historically significant for another, more sobering reason. In 2020, a year that was meant to be joyous and celebratory for the park, the coronavirus pandemic shuttered all six theme park resorts around the world for the first time in their history. Disneyland remained closed through its anniversary, July 17, and didn't open until the following April. Disneyland opening in Anaheim, California on July 17, 1955.

Should you want to use your hotel or credit card points to defray part of the cost of a Disneyland trip, you'll also need to consider the value of your stay when narrowing down your options. When visiting Disneyland, does it make the most sense to stay at an on-property hotel owned by Disney? Or, should you stay at an off-property hotel, whether it's independently owned or tied to a particular brand? I would like to subscribe to The Points Guy newsletters and special email promotions. The Points Guy will not share or sell your email. See Why? To start, Disneyland’s footprint is substantially smaller, meaning many of the off-property hotels are just as close to the parks as the on-property ones.
