Naked Trespasser Arrested at Disneyland After Climbing Onto Rooftop in New Orleans Square

An unidentified male was arrested on suspicion of public nudity, among other offences, on Saturday

Guests at Disneyland were stunned over the weekend when a man was seen wandering the theme park completely naked, climbing on rooftops and exposing himself in full view of families and children.

The incident occurred Saturday evening in the New Orleans Square section of the Anaheim park. According to police, the man was arrested for trespassing, public nudity, and being under the influence of narcotics. Authorities confirmed that the suspect, who has not been publicly identified, is a Canadian citizen.

Footage captured by guests shows the man standing nude atop Tiana’s Palace, a restaurant themed after The Princess and the Frog. In the video, a Disney employee can be seen attempting to direct guests away from the scene while apologizing for the disruption. A voice off-camera exclaims, “He’s going that way,” followed by another shouting, “Oh my God!”

The man was charged with trespassing and public nudity

Another video shows the man raising his arms before climbing over the balcony railing and walking across the canopy of the restaurant. Despite the dangerous behavior, there were no reports of injuries.

Several visitors who witnessed the event firsthand expressed shock and disgust on social media. One guest commented, “Was waiting in line for the train. Turned around and saw a nude man flailing everything on top of Tiana’s.” Another said, “He climbed up the stairs then walked along the roof, then was on the canopy.” Others who had been in the park at the time added that the chaos now made sense in retrospect.

Police have not identified the suspect but confirmed he is a Canadian national

Social media users condemned the incident, particularly in light of the park's family-friendly environment. “So disgusting—it’s supposed to be an enjoyable place for kids,” one person wrote.

This is not the first time such an incident has occurred at Disneyland. Approximately 18 months ago, a 26-year-old man was arrested after removing his clothes near the “It’s a Small World” attraction. At that time, he was seen walking through the ride’s indoor sets while music played in the background. He was arrested on suspicion of indecent exposure and being under the influence of a controlled substance.

No further information has been released regarding charges or the current status of the suspect from Saturday’s event.
