The parade brings back many guest favorites including Elliot the Dragon and floats from "Alice in Wonderland," "Cinderella" and "Peter Pan."
  • "Fantasmic!" ­has been a "must-see" show at Disneyland for nearly 30 years. Disney's longest-running nighttime spectacular is an emotional extravaganza of colorful Disney animated film images, choreographed to an exciting musical score and highlighted by the fire-breathing Maleficent Dragon. The waters of the Rivers of America come alive as Mickey Mouse's power of imagination enables him to create fantastic events and images as seen in classic Disney films like "Fantasia," "The Jungle Book," "The Little Mermaid" and more.
  • "World of Color" is a unique combination of music, fire, fog and laser effects, with Disney animation projected on an immense screen of water. This unforgettable kaleidoscope of color at Disney California Adventure celebrates the magic and fun of Disney and Pixar ­– all set to a soaring soundtrack. Audiences are immersed in some favorite Disney stories with memorable sequences of animation and music, including scenes like WALL-E and Eve zipping through the cosmos and Pocahontas exploring just around the riverbend.
  • "Disneyland Forever" fireworks spectacular: "Disneyland Forever" is a sky-high celebration filled with sparkling pyrotechnics and immersive projections that envelop guests in a breathtaking journey with surprising special effects. Main Street, U.S.A., and a few other spots in Disneyland become a magical canvas as guests are swept into a world of dreams, from flying above the London skyline with "Peter Pan" to a dance with King Louie in "The Jungle Book." The inspiring closing song is "Kiss Goodnight."

Continuing the momentum that began in 2018, a multi-year project will begin in January 2022 with plans to transform the former AMC Theatres building and adjacent area into a stunning new lifestyle space. Drawing inspiration from Southern California mid-century modern architecture, the area will be a beautiful blend of vibrant color palettes, multi-cultural design elements and patterns, an open lawn for relaxation and future events, and an even broader collection of dining and shopping.
