Enjoy Date Night at Disneyland After Dark: Sweethearts Nite

Enjoy Date Night at Disneyland After Dark: Sweethearts Nite


For a stress-free Disney or Universal Studios vacation, let the FREE expert planners at Royal Carriage Vacations take care of every detail including dining reservations, applying discounts, and onboard cruise credit.


On two nights in February, The Happiest Place on Earth becomes The Most Romantic Place on Earth. Love is in the air at Disneyland After Dark: Sweethearts Nite!

The first Disneyland After Dark event of 2020 took place last night. 80s Nite brought out the totally tubular in guests as they enjoyed a meet and greet with Roger Rabit, Videopolis dance party, and so much more.

Next up, guests will be able to celebrate Valentine’s Day at Disneyland with Sweethearts Nite! Unique entertainment, special food, one-of-a-kind photo ops with Disney couples, and collectible merchandise will be offered for guests to enjoy.

The event takes place on February 12 and 13 from 9 pm to 1 am. I hope you already have your tickets if you were wanting to go on February 13 because it is sold out!

You’ll be able to enter the park as early as 6 pm, and when day guests leave you’ll enjoy low wait times for all your favorite Disneyland attractions!

Here is what’s in store for you and your loved one:

Magical Entertainment

A moonlight cruise aboard the Mark Twain and a love-song themed dance party are just a few of the entertainment options for guests to enjoy. Enjoy a nice boat ride and then go dance with your sweetheart!

For a nostalgic treat, Golden Horseshoe will be transformed into “Tempus Fugit Celebration,” paying tribute to Walt and Lillian Disney’s 30th anniversary party held just four days before Disneyland Park opened in 1955 (presented by D23: The official Disney Fan Club).

All the heart eyes. I am swooning already!

Character Couples


Is Sweethearts Nite even complete without meet and greets with your favorite Disney sweethearts?! Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen, Hercules and Megara, Mickey and Minnie, and other couples will be available for you to grab some photos with!

Royal Princess Ball

Waltz beside the world’s best-loved Disney couples at a glitzy royal ball, featuring Aurora and Prince Phillip, Jasmine and Aladdin, Cinderella and Prince Charming, and others!

This sounds like so much fun! If you go to Sweethearts Nite please report back afterward and let us know how you like the ball!
