World of Color (June 11, 2010 - present)

World of Color is DCA's night time spectacular. This is a not to be missed experience. The best way to describe it is a fireworks show that uses water, lasers, and projections instead of Fireworks. I have my thoughts and an FAQ on its own page. Click here to read more.

Pixar Pals (January 2011 - present) --

These brief character shows were put in place due to construction in the park that would not allow for a daily parade to pass through.

Pixar Pals featuring The Incredibles Heroes in Training Squad - Premiered 1/14/11

Pixar Play Parade (March 14, 2008 -2011)

** On Haitus until after construction is complete **

The Pixar Play Parade debutted in March 2008. It features units from Cars, Monsters Inc, the Incredibles, tough to be a bug, and Toy Story.

My initial thoughts from the parade(3/14/08): A word of warning to people watching the parade, heed the pre-parade warning that you will get wet. There is quite a bit of water, bubbles, etc.. that come toward you, not to mention beach balls (which managed to hit me a couple of times). Some of the water is controlled by CMs and they are fairly careful if they see you have a camera, but other streams come from the floats and those seem to be random. Overall I do not see the thrill of getting wet all the time, I guess in the 100 degree weather of July and August it may be nice but for those of us who enjoy taking pictures it makes it a real hassle to worry about the water and we end up not enjoying the parade or focussing on it as I found myself planning a shot, un covering the camera, snapping pictures, then covering it again. I would like to see a toned down version.. maybe one where only the first couple rows get wet.

Aladdin a Musical Spectacular(2003 -present)

The latest show playing in the Hyperion is a stage version of Aladdin. This is a very well done 45 minute show. We have enjoyed several showings of it over its run. The plot follows that of the Disney movie more or less. The actors playing the Genie are given some great freedom in some of their jokes so the show feels fresh. My only major complaint is I think it needs a live band instead of pulling everything from tape.

Disney Dance Crew (October 2010 - Present)

This show takes place on the Backlot stage and features a number of high energy dancers performing to hip hop inspired mixes.

Phineas and Ferb's Rockin' Rollin' Dance Party (July 9, 2011 - Present)
This 15 minute show features plenty of opportunities for children to get up and dance with the performers. The show has been rolling into place right across from the entrance/exit to the Little Mermaid attraction, right as you enter the Pier area.

Wilderness Explorer Ceremony (June 2011 - Present)
This brief show takes place in the small theater located within the Redwood Creek Challenge area. It is a brief show that concludes with a photo opportunity with Russell.

Minnie's Fly Girls Charter Airline (February 17, 2012 - Present)
This brief show takes place on a small stage in Condor Flats, opposite Soarin' Over California. Minnie's Flight crew takes you on a music journey around the world featuring music from the 40s, 50s, and 60s including a Disney Medley as well as standards from Frank Sinatra and Nat King Cole.

Mariachi Divas - This group performs ion the Pacific Wharf area.
