Disneyland Orders Partial Evacuation as Emergency Alarms Sound Across Park

New Orleans Square is usually one of the calmer corners of Disneyland, the kind of spot where guests wander past gas lamps and jazz music while waiting for a table at Blue Bayou or a spot in line for Pirates of the Caribbean. That calm got interrupted recently when lights and alarms suddenly activated inside the attraction, followed by a second evacuation at the restaurant sitting right next door.

Here’s what’s actually known about the situation, why this kind of thing happens more often than guests might realize, and a look at a completely different but genuinely exciting Disneyland story making headlines this week.
