Overview
- A ficus tree snapped and fell onto two guests during Disneyland After Dark: Sweethearts Nite on February 17, and both were treated on site for minor injuries without hospital transport.
- Emergency crews, including the Disneyland Resort Fire Department, removed the fallen tree the night of the incident and the area was cleared for continued park operations.
- On May 20, plywood barriers were installed around part of the Plaza Inn patio and fabric-covered metal barriers were placed around nearby flowerbeds, which cast members linked to plans to replace the tree.
- The Plaza Inn remains open and continues to serve full menus and character breakfast dining, but some patio seating is blocked by the new construction walls.
- The resort has not issued a public statement about the work to replace the tree, and the three-month gap between the collapse and visible mitigation raises questions about timing and future guest updates.
