World of Color

I had the opportunity to attend the premiere of Disney World of Color’s premiere on Thursday. I don’t think I can properly describe or rave enough about the amazing and beautiful show. World of Color is Disney California Adventure’s newest attraction and it will definitely not disappoint! The new water show is made up of different color lights, your favorite Disney characters and the most incredible music.

The show features 1200, new animation projected on one of the world’s larges projection screens and which is 380 ft by 50 ft high. It is an incredible show to watch and one that the entire family will love. The show features some of my favorite  Disney characters such as Wall-E, the gang from Toy Story and The Little Mermaid. My kiddos were able to watch the streaming podcast from the premiere and they haven’t stopped talking about and are looking forward to watching it in person!

There are a couple of ways to watch the show. The first is to pick up a FASTPASS at Grizzly River Rapids. If you are planning to watch the show this way, make sure to get your fast pass early, because there are limited tickets available and they will run out fast.

The second and in my opinion the best way, because you can take care of two things at once, is to order a picnic lunch with comes with reserved viewing. Picnic meals are $14.99 and include dessert and choice of beverage. Children’s meals include a Souvenir World of Color light-up bracelet. Pick up orders or purchase picnic meals at the Sonoma Terrace between 2:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. You can order your picnic lunches up to 30 days in advanced. Annual Pass holders will receive an additional discount. To order your meals head over here.

The third option and one that we hope to try out next week is to receive preferred  viewing from Ariel’s Grotto or Wine Country Trattoria. There will be two seatings. One for the first show from 4pm to 7pm for the first show and from 7:05pm to 830 for the second show. Reservations can be made by callingcall (714) 781-DINE or (714) 781-3463.

The show is 25 minutes long and show times vary each day. For example there are two shows scheduled for today, one at 9pm and one at 10:15pm. To check the schedule, make sure to visit the daily calendar by clicking here.

I had such an amazing time and yes, I was even a little teary. I LOVED the show and I can’t wait to see it again. I hope you check it out soon!

    we are going on Tue night, hard to get reservations but we got ours @ the Ariels Grotto (too bad no princesses @ dinner)
    Super excited, we saw a glimpes late one night while we were waiting for the Electrical Parade. Looked reall cool.
    Since you have been there can you elaborate on the viewing sections??

    We booked our dinner and premiere seating for next Saturday. Can't wait. Do you know anything about the seating with this package?

    Hi ladies, This is kind of how it breaks down. There is a viewing area, it is stand up room only. You have a good view from the first tier area but you will get misted on. In the center area you will get wet!

    I have actually heard that the top area is the best viewing area. I watched the show from the 1st tier area and it was amazing but I did get wet.

    Amanda, I have not watched it from the premiere seating but I will on the same day as you are. I've tried to find reviews on watching from Ariel's Grotto but haven't found anything. I am very curious!

    Truly an amazing show! We had dinner at Ariel's Grotto and received premiere tickets for the show. Our location for viewing the show was perfect. Would definitely pay again for this package deal. What a great evening.
