Star Wars Land Teased in The Wonderful World of Disney: Disneyland 60


The 60th anniversary of Disneyland will be celebrated later this month, and ABC is airing the 2-hour special with appearances by Elton John, Fall Out Boy, Ne-Yo, Derek Hough, and Harrison Ford unveiling upcoming Star Wars theme park plans. The TV special will air on Sunday, Feb 21, and Entertainment Weekly showed an exclusive first look at the promo previewing the special event.

Walt Disney, one of the ultimate dreamers, used his uninhibited imagination and determination to create what became the springboard for all of the Walt Disney Company's spirited and wildly successful creativity that followed – his crowning achievement: Disneyland. ABC will celebrate the inventiveness and inspiration of Disney's big, bold creation with a glamorous, star-studded Diamond Anniversary event, both in the heart of Hollywood at the Dolby Theater and throughout some of the most iconic locations at Disneyland Park, including Sleeping Beauty Castle and Main Street U.S.A., and Cars Land, a themed area of Disney California Adventure Park. The special will also showcase two dazzling displays of technology – the "Paint the Night" Parade and "World of Color – Celebrate! The Wonderful World of Walt Disney" in Disney California Adventure Park, along with many more.

The Wonderful World of Disney: Disneyland 60, is scheduled to air Sunday, February 21 at 8:00-10:00 p.m. EST on the ABC Television Network.
