What to Wear to Disneyland in August: Your Perfect Outfit Ideas and Packing List for 2025!

Are you trying to figure out what to wear to Disneyland in August?

Don’t worry, I got you!

The sun is shining, the heat is soaring and this month is one of the busiest at Disneyland.

Summer is coming to an end but the Halloween season is just getting started.

With people ending their summer vacation with a touch of magic and others eager to get into the spirit of fall, August can be pretty crowded as time.

Plus, the D23 Expo also pops up in August and Disneyland welcomes the biggest Disney fans from across the country.

In August, not only is Disneyland the Happiest Place of Earth, sometimes it can feel like the Hottest Place of Earth.

Disneyland runs hotter in comparison to outside of the park, so expect it to feel a few degrees warmer than the Anaheim weather report says.

August in Disneyland is hot, hot, hot, so planning what to wear is crucial!

Light clothing and sun coverage is essential but there are many different ways to remain cool and protected in the Anaheim summer heat.

Jack the Clown: Halloween Horror Night’s Most Iconic Icon EVER!

Are you ready to learn about the demented history of Jack the Clown at Halloween Horror Nights?

In our history as humans, fear has been a big part of our evolution and growth.

We use fear to survive and protect ourselves.

As centuries have passed, one of the things that people have listed as a fear is clowns.

On the surface, they are comics with great talent in costume, bringing joy and laughter to everyone.

Clowns derive from vaudeville events from the golden age of Hollywood and early days of theater.

7.8% of Americans have Coulrophobia, or a fear of clowns, according to a Chapman University Survey.

It is a common phobia that Universal Orlando embraced and crafted a truly sinister and evil icon to draw the curious and fear lovers in.

His name is Jack and today, I will be telling his story at the campfire.

I will go over his backstory and his history with Halloween Horror Nights.

So, enter the fog and read on if you dare.
