World of Color Happiness! — Attraction in Anaheim

Disney California Adventure's World of Color water show is an unparalleled masterpiece that seamlessly blends technology, artistry, and Disney magic into a breathtaking spectacle. My recent experience of this enchanting display, set against the backdrop of the night sky, added a new layer of wonder to an already extraordinary show. World of Color unfolds on the shimmering canvas of Paradise Bay, where a symphony of water fountains, lasers, and mist screens come to life in a harmonious blend of colors and music. The seamless integration of Disney's beloved characters and stories into the show is both heartwarming and visually stunning, reminding us of the timeless magic that Disney has shared with the world. The musical score accompanying the show is nothing short of sensational. The carefully selected Disney classics and contemporary tunes are meticulously synchronized with the water effects and visuals, evoking a rollercoaster of emotions from joy to nostalgia. It's impossible not to get lost in the melodies as scenes from beloved Disney films unfold before your eyes. A highlight of World of Color is the innovative use of projection technology on water screens, bringing scenes and characters to life in a mesmerizing and almost surreal manner. Whether it's Simba's majestic roar or Elsa's ethereal ice magic, the attention to detail in the visuals is nothing short of astounding. World of Color is a sensory symphony that engages all your senses in the most delightful way possible. The combination of water, light, fire, and music creates an immersive experience that is truly unparalleled. The sheer scale of the production is mind-boggling and leaves an indelible impression. My only regret is not being able to watch it multiple times during our visit. World of Color is a show that merits multiple viewings to fully appreciate its nuances and intricacies. If you find yourself at Disney California Adventure, make it a top priority to experience this unforgettable spectacle. In conclusion, Disney California Adventure's World of Color is a magnificent show that invites you on an emotional journey through Disney's rich legacy. Watching it under the starry night sky added an extra layer of enchantment, making it a memorable nighttime delight during our visit. For Disney enthusiasts and anyone seeking an escape into a world of imagination and wonder, this show is an...

Still love the wonderful show, however, do not be deceived by the Preferred dining packages. The viewing area for The World of Color preferred dining packages are no longer in the front where you can sit next to the railing, get wet, or feel the heat. You're sitting in the 3rd area from the front, in the circular section behind the first set of steps (see pictures and video), so this is no longer worth the money you pay for any preferred dining package (in my opinion). My kids always love to sit in the front. But if you prefer a further view, this may be the option for you. The viewing at the very front is now for the general audience that reserves via the virtual queues. So, it's free and better viewing to go that route. I asked a cast member who confirmed this was the new area for people who paid for preferred dining packages. According to the cast member, it was felt that we're actually getting a "better" viewing area now because it's a little higher due to the steps and now we don't have to worry about getting wet. In my opinion, this is the kool-aid we've been asked to drink but if you're of an independent mind, you should know better. I also noticed that the viewing area for the Dessert Viewing party is now 3x the size of what it used to be, all across the back of the viewing area taking up all of the room of where most general viewing used to be. So, we all see the money grab here. They took away a lot of general viewing in the back (to make more money on that option), so they had to make it up by allowing more up front, but in doing so had to cut away the viewing area from Preferred dining. This change in the viewing area is not listed anywhere in the dining package, the world of color page or anywhere else on the Disney site. Very deceiving in my opinion. I would never pay so much money to sit so far away from a show and stand. If you want to sit up front, go for free and get in the...

I've seen this show a handful of times over the years and it keeps getting better and better. Truly the best show that Disney does and is worth staying for / getting a park hopper if you only have one day at Disney. As of right now, they open up the virtual queue at noon, so try to snag a spot if you can. If you get into the yellow or blue sections, go down to the "splash zone" half an hour early and get a spot at the railing. You don't get wet anymore, it's more like a fine mist that'll rain upon you and it's the best spot. Even if a few people are in front of you because you can't get the rail, the projections are large enough that you won't miss anything.

Imo, it's not worth getting a dining package when virtual queue is available and to be fair, any spot is a good viewing spot, even if you're on the bridge of Pixar Pier. My tip is to catch the second show as well as it's not nearly as crowded as the first. I was just there a few days ago and the second show had MAYBE fifty people waiting for it, at most. Given that it was really cold out and during this crazy weather California has been having, but it was insane to see how few people were there.

Imo, this show outweighs Fantasmic and if you have to pick between fireworks, Fantasmic or this, go with World of Color. You won't regret it. It's like nothing else you've ever seen before. They utilize the ferris wheel, the lighting on Incredicoaster, the lamps surrounding you. There's fire, there's pretty lights, there's good music, all your favorite movies are shown. There's everything. The new show they've done for the 100th might be their best, though their 60th anniversary show was really well done too. Kids might prefer Fantasmic more because of the princesses and princes that show up, but they'll still enjoy WoC when they see movies they...
