Pixar Fest Details Released Beginning April 13 Throughout Disneyland Resort:


During the D23 Expo, President of Disney Parks & Resorts Bob Chapek announced that Pixar Fest would be coming to Disneyland Resort sometime in 2018. We now know the date where the festival will begin in April 13. The limited time celebration of friendship and beyond will feature the debut of an all-new fireworks spectacular and the return of two favorite parades as well as even more beloved Pixar characters, new décor, atmosphere entertainment, themed food and beverage and new merchandise items.
“Together Forever – A Pixar Nighttime Spectacular”  (Concept art pictured above) will light up Disneyland park beginning April 13. In addition to dazzling pyrotechnics and memorable music, the theme of friendship, ever-present in most Pixar films, is celebrated in this nighttime spectacular. Guests are invited to embark on an emotional journey that starts when unlikely Pixar characters first meet. As they set out on adventures and overcome obstacles together, “Together Forever” celebrates the everlasting friendships forged by beloved Pixar pals. The story comes to life through projections on iconic park locations: Sleeping Beauty Castle, the water screens of the Rivers of America, the façade of “it’s a small world” and the buildings of Main Street, U.S.A. This nighttime spectacular will even feature a special flyover by Buzz Lightyear at Sleeping Beauty Castle.

April 13 will also mark the return of Paint the Night at Disney California Adventure. A new Pixar story (float) will join other floats depicting our favorite Pixar films like "Toy Story", "Cars", and "Monsters Inc." Later in the year, the Pixar Play Parade will make its way through Disneyland for the first time. It will also see new elements with the likes of "Up" and "Inside Out." 

The Pixar Shorts Film Festival will also be running with rotating favorites such as "For the Birds" and "Lava" at the Sunset Showcase Theatre in Hollywood Land in Disney California Adventure throughout most of the festival. The Paradise Gardens area will feature a new Pixar-themed musical troupe along with Pixar character greeting opportunities as well as crafts and activities for our younger guests.

There will also be plenty of new merchandise, including an exclusive bracelet that will have multiple charm options with fun, friendship messages, and our favorite Pixar characters. The celebration begins April 13.
