    See details

    A park-wide celebration of Disney’s most infamous characters invites fans to show off villain-inspired style inside Disneyland. This unofficial, fan-organized theme day encourages creative looks like themed T-shirts, dresses, and Disneybound ensembles that capture a favorite villain through everyday clothing and accessories. Guests older than 14 may not wear costumes in Disneyland unless attending Oogie Boogie Bash, so Disneybounding is the suggested approach for character-inspired outfits. Entry requires a valid Disneyland Resort Magic Key or a paid park ticket since activities take place within the park. Details about group photo opportunities and ride takeovers will be shared closer to the day. For updates and prize information, check Instagram accounts @VILLAINSDAY and @VILLAINMISTRESS. This gathering is created by Disney fans and is not affiliated with The Walt Disney Company.

    Al Di Meola takes the stage with his acoustic ensemble for The Guitarchitect, a thoughtfully crafted concert that threads together five decades of music with expansive visuals and personal storytelling. The program salutes his legacy while highlighting constant reinvention and the refined intensity that have long defined his sound. Recognized as a pivotal voice in contemporary instrumental music, he has spent more than half a century shaping a distinctive blend of jazz, rock, Latin, Mediterranean, and global traditions, marked by intricate rhythms, lyrical clarity, and exacting technique. His achievements include a GRAMMY Award, the Miles Davis Lifetime Achievement Award, the BBC Lifetime Achievement Award, seven Guitar Player Magazine Best Guitarist honors, and multiple wins in the DownBeat Readers Poll, with frequent recognition among the foremost guitarists by leading publications. Di Meola first gained international attention in the mid 1970s with Chick Corea’s Return to Forever, then established a celebrated solo path with albums such as Land of the Midnight Sun, Elegant Gypsy, Casino, Splendido Hotel, Electric Rendezvous, and Scenario. His landmark acoustic collaboration with Paco de Lucía and John McLaughlin produced Friday Night in San Francisco, a recording that brought acoustic guitar artistry to a vast audience. His work also reflects a deep dialogue with major compositional traditions, from the rhythmic and structural spirit of Astor Piazzolla to elegant reinterpretations of the Lennon and McCartney songbook. In recent years he has reimagined the concert format as an immersive, cinematic journey, placing the music within a carefully curated visual and narrative arc. The result is a performance that honors where the music has been, speaks to the present, and points confidently toward what comes next.

Success continued with the platinum albums Blind Man’s Zoo and Our Time in Eden, home to favorites “Trouble Me,” “Candy Everybody Wants,” and “These Are Days.” Their MTV Unplugged release, highlighted by “Because the Night,” sold over four million copies and remains a defining moment of 1990s music. The current lineup brings that history to the stage with Mary Ramsey on lead vocals and viola, founding members Jerome Augustyniak on drums, John Lombardo on guitar, Dennis Drew on keyboards, and Steven Gustafson on bass, along with guitarist Ben Medina adding fresh energy. The band is celebrating its anniversary with an active tour and the Candy Everybody Wants box set spotlighting its Elektra years in the 1980s and 1990s, and will close the year with its first album of new material in 12 years.
