The power went out just before 11am in Fantasyland, with adjacent attractions in other lands also affected. As of 1pm, the following attractions remained closed at Disneyland, according to the Disneyland app:
Alice in Wonderland
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Disneyland Monorail
Dumbo the Flying Elephant
It's a Small World Holiday
King Arthur Carrousel
Mad Tea Party
Mr. Toad's Wild Ride
Peter Pan's Flight
Pinocchio's Daring Journey
