Paint the night and Disneyland Forever

Does anyone know if these will continue past the 60th celebration? If I can pull off a trip, it probably won't be until Nov 2016, but I'd really like to see these

This is a complete guess, but I would imagine that Paint the Night will stick around....taking the place of the old Electrical Light Parade.

My guess is that PTN and Disneyland Forever will be around for a while. They might limit the days down so it won't be everyday. But definitely shown in some capacity. The fireworks from the 50th anniversary could be seen during fall and spring up until the debut if Disneyland Forever. And most parades last for quite a few years. They spend too much on the floats for it to be a one year deal.

As others have said, it seems pretty likely that both Paint the Night and Disneyland Forever will last beyond the official end of the 60th Anniversary Celebration. DLR tends to present parades for years; for example, Soundsational debuted in 2011 and Pixar Play Parade in 2008 and both are still be presented in the parks. Remember...Dreams Come True fireworks was presented up until last year (2014), so it seems likely that Disneyland Forever will be around for quite a while. Now, it's possible that eventually Magical (the summertime show) and Believe...In Holiday Magic (holiday fireworks) may return at some point, but probably not until after the 60th Anniversary Celebration ends. If I had to guess, I would say the WoC: Celebrate is the show that is mostly likely to end first. It's been getting only lukewarm reviews, so it's possible that they may roll out a new version of WoC at some point after the 60th Anniversary show ends (within a few year thereafter). Whereas, it wouldn't surprise me if both PtN and Disneyland Forever were around for the next decade or more (i.e., until the 70th or 75th anniversary).

If they do stick around, you may still not see them depending on when in Nov 2016 you go. If Disney goes back to its old ways, once the holiday season kicks off (usually just before the halfway mark in Nov) they will only show the holiday parade and holiday fireworks.

Well maybe if I plan it right, we can be there during the transition and see it all! We are in Ohio and have a big family, so we drive vs. flying. Disney World is where we usually go and I don't see is pulling off a west cost trip very often, so I'd live to see as much as possible!
