DISNEYLAND ENTERTAINMENT

FANTASMIC! - Presented on the Rivers of America, Fantasmic is an eye-popping and amazing show complete with laser-projected images, fireworks, water-bound floats, music, lighting effects, fog and more! The story follows Mickey as he battles against some of Disney's nastiest villains…but don't worry, in the end good triumphs over evil!

The show lasts 23 minutes and during the summer is presented nightly, with two showings on selected evenings. During the off-season, Fantasmic is only presented on weekends when it is not down for rehab. If it's windy or raining, the show will be cancelled, and an announcement will be made on the PA system in the area.

Because this show is very popular and there is no seating area, staking out a viewing spot is crucial. On crowded days, it's not unusual to see people staking out their viewing spot two hours or more in advance. If there are two showings of Fantasmic when you are there, opt for the second showing if you can - it is generally much less crowded.

Another option is to reserve one of the limited advance seats available at either the balcony overlooking New Orleans Square outside the Disney Gallery or seats near the Tom Sawyer Island Raft Dock. These seating areas offer desserts and a variety of hot and cold beverages. Current pricing is $41 for the Dessert Buffet on the Balcony and $40 for the Tom Sawyer Seating Area for adults, and $30 for children ages 3-9. Reservations can be made up to 30 days in advance. Call (714) 781-4400 to reserve.

Remember…Dreams Come True” Fireworks - This dazzling fireworks show features Tinker Bell in a sparkling extravaganza accompanied by a beautiful symphonic score. The show takes place over Sleeping Beauty's castle, and the prime viewing spot is smack in the middle of Main Street, near the Plaza Inn, facing the castle. Crowds become VERY heavy in Main Street prior to the show, so don't plan on trying to get through the area during the fireworks.

Walt Disney’s Parade of Dreams - Disney brings together one of the biggest casts of performers and Disney characters ever assembled for a Disney parade. Along with scenes from your favorite Disney films and interaction with the characters, this promises to be an amazing musical event with dazzling floats and new special effects.
