One of the two major theme parks of California Disneyland Resorts, it encompasses 8 different lands full of wonderful experiences and thrilling rides.
You’ll find yourselves exploring this fabulous theme park from morning until night – and then eagerly returning the very next day for more!
Whilst it’s difficult to single out the best of such a feature-packed USA theme park, here are some of our most memorable highlights of Disney California Adventure Park.
Pixar Pier
Pixar Pier is the Disney California Adventure Park world where you’ll find one of the most exciting roller coasters in the world – the Incredicoaster!
This breathtakingly fast coaster will have you lining up again and again as you take a thrilling ride through the dynamic world of Jack Jack and all of the Incredibles family!
Pixar Pier is also the home of one of the most iconic symbols of California Disney – the big wheel – the Pixar Pal-A-Round!
This swinging Ferris Wheel will have you breathless with laughter as it swings you back and forth in a very un-Ferris-Wheel manner!
There are several more fun Pixar-themed rides too – you won’t run out of things to do at Pixar Pier!
Cars Land
Cars Land is a life-sized recreation of the fictional movie town of Radiator Springs, the setting of the first Cars Movie.
Take a ride on the Radiator Springs Racers for a beautifully themed ride that makes you feel as though you’re actually driving in and around Radiator Springs. It’s one of the most popular Disney rides for good reason!
Then there’s the super-fun Luigi’s Rollickin’ Roadsters and the Mater’s Junkyard Jamboree.
Don’t forget to try some tasty themed treats in Cars Land too, such as ice cream, churros and popcorn from the Cozy Cone Motel. You’ll find Flo’s V8 Café here too.
Keep an eye out for all your favourite characters, such as Lightening McQueen or Mater driving down main street!
Animation Academy in Hollywood Land
At the Animation Academy in Hollywood Land you can join a Drawn To Animation class to learn how to draw your favourite Disney characters in no time at all, thanks to expert instruction from Disney artists. It may surprise you how easy it is to recreate a Disney character on paper.
We all did a very respectable drawing of Olaf from Frozen, thanks to our excellent Disney artist instructor. Done on heavy-weight art-paper, your drawing makes for a unique souvenir to take home with you!
Anna and Elsa’s Royal Welcome
Also at the Animation Academy building you can enjoy an Anna and Elsa’s Royal Welcome experience. Enjoy some quality time during a very special meet and greet with the Frozen sisters.
We met with the beautiful Elsa who was very gracious. There was plenty of opportunity to talk together and take some treasured family photos with Elsa too.
This is such a special opportunity for any Disney Frozen fan, and makes for some magical Disney memories!
World Of Color
Cap your amazing day at Disney California Adventure Park off with the stunning night time World Of Color show.
This incredible presentation will take you on a nostalgic Disney journey using a coordinated symphony of lights, projections, water jets and fireworks. Half the magic is watching your child’s face react to the wonder of it all!
World Of Color is a truly unforgettable Disney experience. Head for the area opposite the big wheel in good time to secure a front row spot and sit back and let the Disney magic wash over you. Do not miss this!
