Summer Nightastic! Officially Begins at the Disneyland Resort!

Friday, June 12, 2009
Written by Kimberly Fidler
Today is the day that Summer Nightastic! officially kicks off at the Disneyland® Resort!  This means that summertime fun is at an all-new and all-time high at Disneyland® Park, Disney's California Adventure® Park, and the Downtown Disney District.  Here is a recap of the just some of the nighttime magic you'll experience this summer at the Disneyland® Resort:

Enhanced “Fantasmic!”: Watch in awe as Fantasmic! ignites the night with awesome new, lifelike creatures—like a 40 ft.-tall, fire-breathing dragon—and amazing HD animation that practically leaps off the giant mist screens!  You won't believe your eyes at this completely rejuvenated family favorite nighttime show.   Because this show is so popular, we recommend getting a seat at least 45 minutes to an hour before showtime.  If you can't make it to the first showing, there is normally a second (and less crowded) show on busier nights.

“Magical” Fireworks Spectacular: Celebrate Disney “magic makers” with Magical, a breathtaking, all-new fireworks spectacular. Bursts of vivid color and brilliant visual effects dance in the sky as beloved Disney songs fill the air.  Because the fireworks are possibly the most popular "show" at the Disneyland® Resort, you'll want to arrive early for a great seat in front of the castle.  Cast members are generally on site directing crowds and monitoring seating areas.  We highly recommend arriving 1-2 hours before the fireworks start for prime seating. Plan on grabbing some dinner and having a picnic with your family to save a spot.

Disney’s Electrical Parade: Brighten your night with a more-dazzling-than-ever Disney's Electrical Parade, led by Tinker Bell in a brand-new scene. Two classic scenes will also be making their triumphant return in this nostalgic classic.  Because this parade winds through the streets of Disney's California Adventure® Park later in the evening, you'll want to plan on catching Fantasmic and the fireworks on a different night.

Pixie Hollow Enchantment: Follow the twinkling trail to Pixie Hollow, where every 15 minutes Tinker Bell and her Disney Fairy friends unite their hidden talents in a sparkling, twinkling light show.

Celebrate! A Street Party: Be sure to catch Celebrate! A Street Party on Main Street in Disneyland® Park. This new high-energy parade celebrates life’s special moments and will have your family dancing in the streets afternoon and night!

TLT Dance Club: Get your party on at the TLT Dance Club, presented by Coca-Cola and Verizon. From sundown to Park closing, seven nights a week, Tomorrowland is home to one of the summer’s hottest dance clubs—hosted by local radio DJs on weekdays, and featuring live bands on the weekends!  You can literally dance 'till you drop at this all day and night party.

With so much to see and do (and this is just the extra stuff, not including all of the attractions, regularly scheduled shows, Character Dining experiences, and more!) you'll need at least 5 Days and Nights at the Disneyland® Resort.  Remember, when you book with Get Away Today, you'll get 2 Days and Nights Free when you buy 3 at the Hotels of the Disneyland® Resort or at select partner hotels!  You must book by August 11 for travel before September 30, 2009 to take advantage of that unbelievable offer.  If you can't stay that long, we also have many hotel partners offering 3rd or 4th night free promotions, so you'll always save big with Get Away Today.
