Disneyland Resort

Updated: 7 Sep 2020
The Disneyland Resort, commonly known as Disneyland, is an entertainment resort in Anaheim, California. It is owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company through its Parks, Experiences and Products division and is home to two theme parks (Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure), three hotels, and a shopping, dining, and entertainment complex known as Downtown Disney. The resort was developed by Walt Disney in the 1950s. When it opened to guests on July 17, 1955, the property consisted of Disneyland, its 100-acre parking lot (which had 15,167 spaces), and the Disneyland Hotel, owned and operated by Disney's business partner Jack Wrather. After the success with the multi-park, multi-hotel business model at Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, Disney acquired large parcels of land adjacent to Disneyland to apply the same business model in Anaheim. During the expansion, the property was named the Disneyland Resort to encompass the entire complex, while the original theme park was named Disneyland Park. The company purchased the Disneyland Hotel from the Wrather Company and the Pan Pacific Hotel from the Tokyu Group. The Pan Pacific Hotel became Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel in 2000. In 2001 the property saw the addition of Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, a second theme park, named Disney California Adventure, and the Downtown Disney shopping, dining, and entertainment area.

Hockney has repeatedly spoken of his admiration for Walt Disney, calling him "a great American artist". In California, he also enjoyed visiting Disneyland, with Pirates of the Caribbean his favourite ride.

DisneyLand is both amazing and disturbing. I love it but am troubled by it. I guess, basically, the way I feel about western civilization.

Wow. What is my favorite place to be? Oh gosh. One of my favorite places to be is Disneyland. I love it. You know why? Because it is the great equalizer. You know, everybody, no matter who you are, everybody is playing equally in Disneyland. And it’s so magical.

Hobbies and spare time: “In order of preference: playing the ukulele, participating in the magic shows at Hollywood’s famous Magic Castle, watching videos on YouTube, going to Disneyland and watching films 24/7, like a true film buff”.
