At long last, Pixar Fest is finally here at the Disneyland Resort! Pixar Pier isn't set to open at California Adventure until late June, but the good news is that you don't need Pixar Pier to experience all the fun happening now during Pixar Fest. If you're planning a trip anytime from now through the summer then make sure you know what's happening so you can take it all in. |

Entertainment
Probably the most exciting parts of Pixar Fest are the entertainment options - some new but some are returning favorites you simply can't pass up!
- PIXAR SHORTS FILM FESTIVAL | Hollywood Land - Stop by the Sunset Showcase Theater and enjoy a selection of classic Pixar animated shorts on the big screen in 3D. The selection changes periodically throughout the summer so stop by the theater itself to find out what's playing.
- PIXAR PLAY PARADE | Disneyland Parade Route - The classic parade from California Adventure has made the move across the street to Disneyland Park and features some all new floats for the occasion! Be sure to catch this energy-filled parade anywhere along the parade route and be aware that you will probably find yourself humming the theme song for hours afterward!
