Breathtaking View of World of Color

WDWNT Author on July 29, 2010

From the Disney Parks Blog:

Today’s video gives a unique look at the new, nighttime spectacular at Disney California Adventure park, “World of Color.” This is a VIP view that most of us will never have the chance to see. While you can get FASTPASS tickets for a ground view of “World of Color,” there’s no FASTPASS ticket that will get you access this high up.

The footage was shot from a fixed-wing aircraft recently at approximately 1,800 feet above Disney California Adventure park. I particularly like the wide shot where you can see Glow Fest, “World of Color,” and the whole city of Anaheim around Disney California Adventure park.

WDWNT Author on July 4, 2010

From the Disney Parks Blog:

We have some exciting news to share this holiday weekend. Starting tomorrow morning, Sunday, July 4, the Disney California Adventure park gate at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa will open at 9:00 a.m. exclusively for Disneyland Resort Hotel guests so they can get in line for Disney’s FASTPASS tickets to each evening’s performances of “World of Color.” The Disneyland Resort hotels include the Disneyland Hotel, Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel and Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa.‬ The main entrance will open, as scheduled, at 9:30 a.m. for all other day guests.

While Park hours may vary, please check disneyland.com for the most up-to-date schedule. The early access for Disneyland Resort Hotel guests at the Disney California Adventure park gate at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa will be 30 minutes earlier than the opening listed for main entrance.

This is a great benefit for guests staying at Disneyland Resort Hotels, but guests not staying at the hotels will still have access to Disney’s FASTPASS tickets for “World of Color.

World of Color Hits The Road

WDWNT Author on June 28, 2010

California Adventure can no longer contain World of Color. Starting July 7th, Disney will travel to Four cities around California and take the animation from World of Color and project it for all to see. Disney will also be broadcasting the show live over the web in case you cant make it to one of the locations.

The Disney Parks Blog gave us a sneak peak on what the show will look like with this picture of the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Downtown Los Angeles.

Exact locations and dates have not been announced. You can find videos and follow the road show on its website, www.WorldofColorRoadShow.com.

World of Color’s World Premiere

WDWNT Author on June 13, 2010

I know that this is WDW News Today and that we are supposed to focus on just Walt Disney World, but I thought it would be a shame if I didn’t share this video with as many of our followers as possible. As many of you are aware, I traveled to the Disneyland Resort to cover the media event for the debut of the new nighttime spectacular at Disney California Adventure, “World of Color”. In case you were wondering what to expect from this high-tech, emotional joyride, just watch the video of the full show below. Further coverage of the media event is being added to Disneyland News Today as we speak and this week’s upcoming WDW News Today and Disneyland News Today Podcasts will feature interviews, reviews, audio, and more from Summer Nightastic on both coasts. While we’re waiting for that coverage, enjoy the absolutely wonderful “World of Color”:

A Look Back at World of Color

WDWNT Author on June 8, 2010

With World of Color now only three days away, thought it would be appropriate to take a look at the show’s Journey, from concept to now. So here is a video from the D23 Expo at the World of Color presentation starring Imagineer Steven Davison as he guides us through the World Of Color. Taken by WDWNT’s own, Matt Paul.
