The World of Color nighttime water spectacular weaves water, color, fire and light into a kaleidoscope of fantasy and imagination. More than 1,000 jets of water form incredible shapes in time to the music as Disney characters come to life on a shimmering veil of mist.

Ariels grotto has great seating or if you can get VIP viewing it's well worth it!
Fast Pass is great for getting a good spot for the show. We were in the yellow section, but were able to find a spot in the center area with no problem. Daughter had to sit on Dad's shoulders to see.
Best place if you don't have a fast pass is sit by Ariel's grotto! Once the show starts you can sit on the railing there. Just don't get caught.
MUST SEE! We like the "Yellow" section best! The fountains in “World of Color” can send water to heights ranging from 30 ft to 200 ft! (by comparison, Mickey’s Fun Wheel reaches a height of 150 ft.)
Come an hour early once you get your fast pass for the best seats. Also if you have a phone please DON'T try to tape the show, holding it up in the air blocks other people's view . Be considerate.
Have a great meal at Wine Country , Filet or the Shank. Then get great seats right on the water for the show. But.... It's not cheap but worth it if just once.
WOW! Amazing! A must see! Get there early to have a good spot. Best spots are with dinning package (great food)! And you WILL get wet if you have a good spot! :)
Eat lunch at one of the restaurants that give you preferred seating tickets. We say lake side for the first show of the night. After the show I thought I paid for the tickets and got a free lunch .
An amazing water and light show! It's better than any of the other Disney night shows. Make sure you get a Fast pass or Dining pass to get a good view .
Water fountain show w Disney touch. Disney is so good at making things much more entertaining n spectacular! Go front or side, not back side cuz u can't see the story n projections.
Get your fast pass for this first thing in the morning to get a good section (blue is closest to the front)
If you can swing it, the World of Color Dining package is the way to go. I've done it both ways and the better viewing option is always in line with the dinner package .
This have a league of its own compared to Bellagio Dancing Fountains . Get a FastPass and stay at Yellow Section. Bring a shampoo and soap if you want to stay at Wet Zone. :p
Make sure to get Fastpasses and arrive at the BEGINNING of the arrival window. If you need to return between 8 & 9, get there at 7:50 unless you wanna be behind a pile of people.
Go to CA Adventures at 9:30am to get your fast pass in order to get the best viewing spots (blue and yellow). Also line up an hour before your show and get a spot behind a fence area.
you can watch and enjoy from behind the Ferris Wheel or next to and behind the Hot Dog Hut less crowded and you can still see it all and be seated .
Yellow is the best fastpass as it is in the center. They give away yellow, blue, then red in that order starting with best viewing 1st. The front also is not the best place 4 this show try the back
One of the most amazing shows! That's why Disneyland is the happiest place on Earth! Grab your fast pass and popcorns !!!
Get the fastpass later for the late showing! Lined up at 9:35 and still got amazing viewing without waiting much. Watch in the wet zone!!!!! You'll be soaked if it's windy but it's worth it
A couple ground rules: If you're tall, let the shorter people in front of you. And please don't pick up your kid halfway through and put them on your shoulders. It's annoying and inconsiderate.
Do not miss this show. It is amazing and breathtaking. It's like the Bellagio waters show only like a million times better!
The preferred dining sections are better than the fast pass sections, unless you show up very early with your fast pass
Long wait , so hurry up and get your fast passes! It's an amazing light show with projectors shinning onto water
Make sure and go early for fast pass to show it is by Grizzly River Run FastPass area ...it is reserved seating for good seats to show
If you can get into this section, it's a great place to take in the show. Perfect view and not too close to the water so you won't get wet.
One of the most amazing things I've ever seen. One of those things that wasn't possible at any price when I was young. Amazing. Amazing!
The fastpass line opens before the park officially does. If you would like to experience the World of Colour (it's a must), go to the fastpass line with your WHOLE party to avoid distribution delay.
Good views from all over the Pier . We stood right by Ariel's ride and the show was amazing!
The most recent version, celebrating Disneyland's 60th birthday, is the best version yet.
Get to the Grizzly Bear Run Fastpass booth as EARLY in the day as you can. Line up as early as you can as well & believe me, you will have the best view !
The Wine Trattoria offers WOC Preferred Dining for $39.99! Includes Non-Alcoholic Drink, Appetizer, Entree & Dessert Sample Tray! Plus they give you a World of Color FastPass! No need to wait in line !
Get early to California Adventure and get your fastpass for Wolrd of Color to get the best view !!! (Will not count against other fastpasses) so go get it !!
Simply the best water show way different than Fantasmic but both are just amazing in their ways you can't go wrong
Beautiful intense light show, but the story lines are crap. Usually they just promote the latest Disney movie (ie: Planes and Frozen).
If the winds are blowing a certain way, you will get soaked if you stand up front. But that view is worth it
Like a long Disney promo. It’s sort of cool with fire and color but personally I could skip it and skip the crowds hovering to catch a glimpse.
Definitely recommend. If not for the dessert , for the chair and unobstructed view of the show.
The winter dreams version is SO much worse. This show is usually awesome, but don't even bother with it if it's winter dreams.
Don't miss World of Color, Disney® California Adventure™ Park 's new masterpiece filled with beautiful fountains , beloved Disney characters, and spectacular musical numbers! Read more
Be nice to the cast members. Also, if you dont have a fastpasses, go up to the white fence by ariel's grotto or in front of the little mermaid ride.
Get the preferred seating. Reservations at the wine cellar are the best. About $40 per person. Drinks not included. Either way they will give you tickets for right in the middle!
Make sure you get there early and get a spot on the railing so you have an unobstructed view . People put their kids on their shoulders and you don't want to be the one stuck behind
Amazingly beautiful and spectacular! Make sure you don't miss it. You won't be disappointed!
Make sure to get a fast pass the first thing in the morning, so you can ensure a great viewing area for the show. Have fun!
A water show better than Bellagio ! Preferred dining package gets you front and center without a wait. Otherwise, Fastpass in the morning.
Got to grizzly rapids early got yellow seating. Got to show early got first row front. Watched an awesome show with no wind and got absolutely soaked. Amazing show!!!
Be sure to get the fast pass early for better viewing area
Get good spots with the dining package but prepare to get wet! Also possibly bring tissues.
Got the tix from the dinner packages that offer the closest spots... it's better (& wetter!) up front !
Make sure you're here early for your fast pass! People start lining up even before there pass. Yellow fast pass starts at the Grizzly bear rapids and blue by the Blue Sky Cellar...
This one was a blast (literally). The 3D was great and so worth it. Line was long but so is the ride & we liked it better than the Disneyland Toy Story ride. Buzz also works the line while you wait. - John Boyle
Best air conditioned ride in the park!! A charming ride and a nice long break from the heat. - Navarro Parker
Fun, relaxing ride. One of the better dark rides in the park. I do wish they'd cut back some of the Jack Sparrow content, though. - Erika Robbins
Place looks gorgeous for Christmas time! Makes sure to meet Santa and check out Newsboys and 5&Dime! Great talent out there! - Sharon Rae M
The best ice cream cones are at the back of Toontown! The serving size is HUGE and they're relatively inexpensive (in comparison). - Casey
My kids enjoyed building their own cars @ridemakers . Lego store was lovely. I absolutely recommend it. - Ghada Al-Garaawi
Huge store with lots of merchandise for all your souvenir needs. I went twice and although at the end of the day it's a little more hectic it's still pretty well staffed and maintained. - Laur Lo Ski
