Hi Doug! Welcome to planDisney! I'm so thrilled you have a visit to Disneyland coming up and am excited for all the frightful fun you're about to experience during
spooky season.
Thank you for stopping by with your great question. I can understand your desire to plan ahead and maximize the magic during your visit to the Happiest Place on Earth (I'm the same way!), however, entertainment schedules are not released until about six weeks out. I encourage you to check the
Daily Events Schedule on the Disneyland website as your visit gets just a little bit closer. If the recently released schedule is any indication, however,
World of Color: Happiness! could be occurring nightly during your visit and
Fantasmic! likely will be showing on weekends only - but this is just my best guess! You'll be able to confirm the most current information under "Fireworks & Nighttime Entertainment" on the Daily Events Schedule when it's six weeks out. Make sure your particular date is selected from the "Change Date" at the top. That said, it's important to know that the schedule can change at any time.
For a free World of Color viewing spot, join the
virtual queue on the
Disneyland app at 12pm the day you're in California Adventure. (I always set a reminder on my phone, so I don't forget, as I'm usually quite distracted chasing Jack Jack around on the Incredicoaster.) Then, make sure you're settled in your viewing spot a few minutes before show time, so you don't miss the unbelievably delightful Muppets Pre-Show. Disneyland isn't the only one
celebrating 70 - so are our beloved Muppets! This quick "safety announcement" might be one of my very favorite entertainment offerings at Disneyland Resort right now - wocka wocka!
I hope this information has been helpful to you, Doug! I trust you'll be dreaming a fantastic dream in no time. If any other planning questions come up as you prepare for your upcoming visit, you know where to find us!
Magic awaits,
McCayla
