MAGA supporters are planning a park-wide takeover on February 28, 2026, the same day Disneyland Resort hosts its annual Mini Gay Days. The event, beloved by LGBTQIA+ guests and their allies, sees the park flooded with matching red shirts, a symbol of pride and solidarity. It’s a celebration that radiates inclusivity and joy, as Disney’s magic intertwines with love and acceptance. But this year, there’s a plot twist in the happiest place on Earth. Cue the drama.

The Invasion: MAGA Meets Disneyland
For those who are unfamiliar, Mini Gay Days is an offshoot of the larger Gay Days Anaheim event that’s been part of Disneyland Resort since 1998. It’s a celebration of queer culture, with discounted tickets, hotel rooms, and a general sense of community, because who doesn’t want to ride Space Mountain in solidarity? But in 2026, this once-utopian vision might be disrupted by the 805 Patriots, a MAGA group that’s planning to descend upon the park that day.

Their mission? To “Make Disney Great Again” (of course, the same phrase that’s haunted political discourse for the past several years). According to their promotional material, the group wants to make a statement about tradition and conservative values. They’re selling shirts emblazoned with their slogan, hoping to rally support for a park-wide political protest, conveniently coinciding with an event that celebrates diversity and inclusion. What could possibly go wrong?
Disney Fans Weigh In
News of the planned MAGA Invasion sent waves of frustration through the Disney fandom. Many are taking to Reddit, Facebook, and other platforms, offering suggestions on how to derail the event—or at least stop the group from getting the traction they clearly want. One Reddit user, u/timmyboi, posted a flier for the event, advising fellow Disney fans to steer clear of the park that day. It was an “avoid at all costs” moment.
Others have taken a more proactive approach, trying to block the group’s access to the park entirely. Other users jokingly suggested booking all the reservations for the day to make sure the MAGA group couldn’t get in. Another took the fight to the front lines, emailing Disney’s permissions team to make sure the group wasn’t violating any intellectual property laws with their “Make Disney Great Again” merch. Who knew Disney fans had such a knack for activism?
A Clash of Cultures
But beyond the jokes and online strategies, there’s a deeper question that looms: should Disney even allow a politically charged event like this to happen in the first place? Disney Parks are meant to be a place of escapism, where politics are supposed to take a backseat to the magic of storytelling. As one user, u/Intelligent_Ad4495, put it, “Disneyland is the place to escape and not think about things like politics.”
It’s hard to disagree. Disneyland has always been a place where people can find a little peace in the chaos of the world. A place where kids of all ages can just be themselves, whether they’re getting their first glimpse of Mickey Mouse or sharing a smile with someone they love. So when a group with the explicit intention of stirring up division chooses that very day to disrupt a celebration of love and pride, it’s easy to see why so many feel uncomfortable.
Security or Silence?
The key question on everyone’s mind: will Disney take action? Given the already scheduled Mini Gay Days event, will the park prioritize the safety and comfort of its LGBTQIA+ guests, or will they let a politically charged group in, regardless of the disruption they might cause?
One user, u/Same_Lychee5934, seemed confident that Disney’s security would step in if things got out of hand, with the potential for trespassing if the MAGA group becomes a nuisance. Others, like u/unwanted_peace, have voiced concerns about the very notion of allowing such a “political invasion” to happen in the first place, arguing that the park should be a place of joy, not one where guests feel uncomfortable.
A Heated Debate Ahead
As the day approaches, the debate rages on: should Disneyland Resort allow this political protest to take place on a day that’s already dedicated to inclusivity and acceptance? Disney Dining is opening the floor to you, dear readers. Will the MAGA takeover steal the show—or will the magic of Gay Days remain undisturbed?
One thing’s for sure: it’s going to be a very interesting day at Disneyland.
