Police closed off Harbor Blvd, which borders Disneyland Resort on the west. Guests exiting the parks were not allowed to leave via Harbor Blvd and were instead directed through Downtown Disney District.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Disneylanders reported a large police activity. Beyond the officers on the ground, there were helicopters and drones in the sky. By 11:24 p.m., one side of the Disneyland Park exit was closed and Cast Members were directing guests to the east.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A comment on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Disneyland\/comments\/1x4o6dr\/whats_going_on_outside_the_exit_gates_everyone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" aria-describedby=\"external-link-warning\">Reddit<\/a> stated that at 11:40 p.m. Disneyland was in a state of \u201cchaos\u201d with \u201chordes\u201d of guests everywhere and no word from upper management. Another comment in the same thread shared a screenshot of the active call from Anaheim Fire &amp; Rescue. The call was received at 11:10 p.m.<\/p>\n<p><a data-fslightbox=\"1\" data-type=\"image\" aria-label=\"Open fullscreen lightbox with current image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/IMG_7346.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1320\" height=\"1677\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/IMG_7346.jpg\" alt=\"Disneyland Closes Exits and Reroutes Guests After Suspicious Device Found Near Harbor Boulevard&#10;\" class=\"wp-image-1507898\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Disneylanders learned by this time from someone who worked for the city of Anaheim that there was apparently a suspicious package in the area.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Soon after that, in The Disneylanders final video, the entire Disneyland Park exit was closed. Guests were then pointed through an overflow path next to the firehouse. It does not appear guests were actually evacuated \u2014\u00a0they were allowed to leave when they wanted, just could not leave Disneyland Resort to the east.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anaheim Police Department confirmed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbclosangeles.com\/news\/local\/disneyland-suspicious-device\/3955283\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" aria-describedby=\"external-link-warning\">NBC4 Los Angeles<\/a> that a \u201csuspicious device\u201d was found near the shuttle drop-off at Harbor Blvd. Details on the device were not released and authorities continue to investigate the matter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more Disneyland Resort news and info, follow Disneyland News Today on\u00a0<a data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dlnt\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dlnt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" aria-describedby=\"external-link-warning\">Twitter<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DisneylandNewsToday\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" aria-describedby=\"external-link-warning\">Facebook<\/a>, and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/disneylandnewstoday\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" aria-describedby=\"external-link-warning\">Instagram<\/a>.
