Planning on topping off your day at California Adventure at the Disneyland Resort with a viewing of The World of Color? This nighttime spectacular brings music and scenes from Disney and Pixar movies to life on a colorful veil of mist around the lake in front of Pixar Pier in California Adventure. On nights when World of Color is shown, access to designated viewing areas is via a virtual queue. The queue typically opens around 12 noon. Check with the Disneyland app for exact virtual queue opening times. However, another option is to reserve your World of Color viewing spot with a dining package. There are two distinct dining packages to choose from: Storytellers Café at The Grand Californian Hotel or Wine Country Trattoria in California Adventure.
