Disneyland will have Twenty Candlelight Processional Performances this Holiday Season

By

GREAT NEWS!  I’ve always wanted to see the Candlelight Processional and now the odds of seeing it has gone way up.  That is if I can afford it!  My Annual Pass expires by then. <cry>  Anyways for the first time ever Disneyland is extending the the number of performances of this amazing show to 20 nights.  Not many details at this point but this (for me) is very exciting news.

Here is the full story via the Disney Parks Blog..

Glow with the Show is coming to Fantasmic!

By

Looks like Fantasmic! is getting the Glow with the Show treatment.  Currently you can, “Glow” with Word of Color and Mad T Party so it’s only natural that Fantasmic gets it.  Is wishes next?

Glow in the Show ears cost $25, and that would explain why very few members of the World of Color audience actually wears them. When that is the case the effect doesn’t do much.  I’ve only seen full crowds wearing them at special passholder events. You know, when the ears are free.  But with the technology expanding, hopefully these will sell more.  I’m looking forward to seeing Fantasmic with Glow with the Show in full effect!

New concept art for Fantasy Faire at Disneyland

By

While I still mourn the loss of the Carnation Plazza Gardens there is still a part of me that is sort of looking forward to the replacement, Fantasy Faire. And everytime Disney releases new concept art, I get a little bit more into it.

Fantasy Faire opens in spring 2013.  You can currently spot princesses on the path to It’s a Small World.

See for yourself and let me know in the comments if you are excited for the Fantasy Faire.

The Red Car Trolleys of Buena Vista Street

By

So I have a special place in my heart for Torlleys. Maybe because as a little kid I used to love to watch Mr. Rodgers. The best part for me was was seeing the Trolley take them to whatver it was. Don’t quite remember. Anyways I LOVE the Red Car Trolleys at Buena Vista Street. Here is a video Disney put out all about them.
