Check out the new film added to the Blue Sky Cellar located at Disney California Adventure which includes footage from World of Color, Silly Symphony Swings, The Little Mermaid Ariel’s Undersea Adventure, Buena Vista Street, The Red Car Trolley, Cars Land, and more.
I know that this is WDW News Today and that we are supposed to focus on just Walt Disney World, but I thought it would be a shame if I didn’t share this video with as many of our followers as possible. As many of you are aware, I traveled to the Disneyland Resort to cover the media event for the debut of the new nighttime spectacular at Disney California Adventure, “World of Color”. In case you were wondering what to expect from this high-tech, emotional joyride, just watch the video of the full show below. Further coverage of the media event is being added to Disneyland News Today as we speak and this week’s upcoming WDW News Today and Disneyland News Today Podcasts will feature interviews, reviews, audio, and more from Summer Nightastic on both coasts. While we’re waiting for that coverage, enjoy the absolutely wonderful “World of Color”:
While Tom is off on his Summer Nightastic “research” trip, we thought we would bring you a short preview of Summer Nightastic with photos from our good friend Robert Asburn of FloridaThrills.net:
Robert visited with some of the WDWNT Crew at our WDWNT Fan Meet held at the Magic Kingdom on June 6th for the offical start of Summer Nightastic
Tinker Bell Starts off the Main Street Electrical Parade and Summer Nightastic!
It’s been a while since Main Street USA has seen these sights
The Chesire Cat has been updated since he last visited WDW.
Is it time for Spectromagic?
SNFS is based on the great fireworks show Magic, Music and Mayhem held during the Pirate and Pricess Parties.
We will end this short taste of summer nightastic with a salute to all nations but mostly America. Tom will be back soon with full coverage of all the Summer Nightastic offerings from both coasts soon including Disney’s Electrical Parade, the Summer Nightastic Fireworks Spectacular and World of Color from the Disneyland Resort as well. Stay Tuned here and to Disneyland News Today as well for full coverage!
Join us for the World Premiere of ‘World of Color’ at Disney California Adventure park at the Disneyland Resort from June 10, 2010. After 5 years in the making, it’s time to jump into the magic, music, and color of this 25 minute show.

We apologize for the lack of updates on the site lately, we’ve had a lot going on as we prepare for a number of new projects and continue to cover Summer Nightastic! at both the Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resorts. In the meantime, here are some videos of the first performances of the Main Street Electrical Parade and the Summer Nightastic! Fireworks Spectacular from this weekend (embedded via the WDWNTube):
With World of Color now only three days away, thought it would be appropriate to take a look at the show’s Journey, from concept to now. So here is a video from the D23 Expo at the World of Color presentation starring Imagineer Steven Davison as he guides us through the World Of Color. Taken by WDWNT’s own, Matt Paul.

From the Disney Parks Blog:
With only a couple weeks before the opening of “World of Color” and with the excitement building, I wanted to make sure you got a sneak peek at the art our teams have put together over the past few months, all leading to the inspiration and development of our “World of Color”-themed merchandise. Several of our favorite Disney characters will appear in a spectrum of items, including tees, fleece and hats.
Some of you may notice that this art reflects our Disney’s California Adventure park name. These will be some of the last items with that look. Be on the lookout for pieces with the new logo that was recently unveiled.
We even have something special in store for our Annual Passholders. As I mentioned in my post the other day, our new Annual Passholder Commemorative Collection will actually debut in conjunction with the opening of this new nighttime spectacular and will feature special themed items including tees, fleece and coins.
So this June, when you visit Disney California Adventure park to see the new show, take a second and pop into some of our nearby merchandise locations and see what’s in store for you. I know that some of you might not be able to make it down to the Resort so soon, so if that’s the case, and you are interested in seeing or buying some of this new merchandise then be sure to check it out on www.DisneyParks.com/store in the coming weeks.
