Hop into Adventure with ‘Hoppers’ at Disneyland and Disney World

The wild is calling! Disney and Pixar’s Hoppers hits theaters this Friday, March 6, and Disney Experiences is getting ready to celebrate the fun and heart of this all-new adventure. From exciting interactive experiences to new merch, the spirit of Hoppers is coming to life in exciting ways. Now, let’s hop into the fun!

Hit the trail and step into the shoes (or paws) of one of four animals with Mabel’s Seek & Find activity. Found inside the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail inside Disney California Adventure park (park ticket and reservation required), you can kick off the celebration of Pixar’s latest film by receiving a physical, keepsake map packed with exciting challenges guests of all ages can complete along the trail.

Each task brings you a step closer to finishing your adventure. Once you’ve explored each of the challenges and navigated a variety of twists and turns in the area, earn one Hoppers-themed sticker as a complimentary prize to celebrate. With King George, Ellen Bear, Insect Queen, or yes, even the iconic and already-beloved Tom Lizard featured on the stickers, you’ll be ready to wear it loud and proud across Grizzly Peak after your journey.

And recently, Piper Curda and Bobby Moynihan stopped by the park for a day filled with plenty of unforgettable moments:

Prepare for your next pursuit with activities along the Redwood Creek trail, available throughout the year:

Step into the animator’s chair and dive into the art of sketch with a new drawing experience inspired by Hoppers at Animation Academy in Disney California Adventure.

For a limited time, artists of all ages can learn step-by-step how to draw characters from the film including Mabel, Tom Lizard, or King George, guided by a talented animator. Whether you’re a first-time sketch artist or a seasoned doodler, this interactive experience lets you see how these lively characters take shape. Best of all, you’ll leave with your very own one-of-a-kind keepsake.

Classes occur every 30 minutes throughout the day inside the Disney Animation Building in Hollywood Land, and there are no reservations required for this creative experience. On the day of your visit, check the schedule outside of Animation Academy to see when you can draw a character from Hoppers.

Be sure to pencil this stop into your next California Adventure itinerary and be ready to express your own artistic Disney flair.

Since 1995, the Disney Conservation Fund has directed more than $140 million to community-based efforts that have helped protect more than 1,000 species of wildlife across every continent and every ocean, and connected millions of kids with nature. And for the past 35 years, Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots, the youth action program of the Jane Goodall Institute, has empowered young people to be the change in their communities.

Building on this legacy, in celebration of Disney Pixar’s all-new film Hoppers and the 30^th anniversary of the Disney Conservation Fund, Disney and Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots USA are teaming up to connect kids with nature and inspire 100K young people around the country to “hop in” to make a difference in their communities. In the all-new film, Hoppers, Mabel gets to “hop in” and experience the animal kingdom like never before. Now, Disney and Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots USA are recognizing young people doing just that.
