Greetings, Marilyn, and welcome to planDisney. Golly, your trip is just around the corner! Mickey and his pals, tasty food, thrilling attractions, and immersive entertainment are all waiting for you. It sounds like you have a great day planned, ending with watching
World of Color Happiness!Your
dining package includes a reservation at a participating restaurant (in your case, Wine Country Trattoria) and reserved viewing for the first or second showing of World of Color. Your reservation is for the first show, which will be at 9:00 p.m. according to the
Hours and Events Calendar. The second is scheduled for 10:15 p.m., but you wouldn't have reserved viewing for that one. You'll receive a voucher at the end of your meal with the performance information.
You'll love
World of Color Happiness! First, it starts with a special pre-show, featuring The Muppets, that is wacky and fun. The show itself is full of nostalgia and heartwarming moments, all experienced through towering fountains, vibrant colors, projections, high-energy music, and a few surprises along the way. It's a perfect encapsulation of the
Disneyland Resort 70th Celebration. I hope you love it as much as I do!
Aside from the dining package, there is also a
World of Color Dessert Party. You'll notice tables and chairs set up in Paradise Gardens Park – that's for the dessert party. Guests can enjoy a seated view of the show while sampling all the sweet and savory items in their own dessert box. I did the dessert party earlier this year with my mom and sister, and we had a great time. I took a peek at reservations, and there is still availability for December 6 at the time of writing this, in case you're interested in adjusting your plans!
Just so you know, there's one other way to access a dedicated viewing area for World of Color, and that's by
joining the free virtual queue, which opens at noon. As long as you're in the park by then, you can join the queue from the
Disneyland mobile app to secure a spot in the Blue or Yellow viewing area. Keep in mind that these are separate from the Preferred Dining section.
While you're in California Adventure, don't miss all the special entertainment and activities in the park as part of the
Disney Festival of Holidays and
Disney ¡Viva Navidad! I especially enjoy the Holiday Toy Drummers, street party, meeting with Santa Claus, listening to live music, and more. Check the
Hours and Events Calendar for details.
Marilyn, I hope you have a fantastic visit to the Disneyland Resort. On behalf of all of us at planDisney, I'd like to extend warm holiday greetings to you and your family. If you have any other questions, please reach out. We're always happy to help!
Your pal,
Kriss
