On Thursday, Disneyland Resort shared a sneak peek at its new versions of the Donald and Daisy Duck characters. Disney Park guests will soon be able to meet these reimagined favorites exclusively at Storytellers Cafe at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa.
Donald’s Tales of Adventure Dinner Buffet will debut at Storytellers Cafe on May 16, 2025, alongside the rest of the Disneyland70 celebrations at Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park. This reservation-only offering is a campfire-style barbecue buffet featuring Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Clarabelle Cow, Goofy, and Pluto. But don’t worry, the new character dining experience will not replace Mickey’s Tales of Adventure Breakfast, which will continue to delight guests in the morning.

On May 8, Disneyland Resort shared a first look at Donald Duck and Daisy Duck in their new outfits for Donald’s Tales of Adventure Dinner Buffet at Storytellers Cafe at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa. On X (formerly known as Twitter), theme park journalist Scott Gustin (@ScottGustin) shared a side-by-side comparison of the characters’ new looks next to the concept art Disney previously published:
