Celebrate with Over 20 Characters at Disneyland’s Pixar Fest 2024
Pixar Fest at Disneyland Resort is an exciting celebration featuring more than 20 different Pixar characters, including some never seen before at a Disney park. The event is ongoing now through Aug. 4, 2024, and promises to offer a memorable experience for guests.

One of the highlights of Pixar Fest is the opportunity to interact with popular Pixar characters. For the first time at Disneyland Resort, guests will have the chance to encounter characters such as Ember and Wade ("Elemental"), as well as Luca and Alberto ("Luca") at the Pixar Pals Playtime Party at Fantasyland Theatre in Disneyland park.

In addition to these new additions, guests can also look forward to meeting Ian and Barley ("Onward") near their van Guinevere, as well as other beloved characters such as Joy and Sadness ("Inside Out"), Russell ("Up"), Merida ("Brave"), and Woody, Jessie, and Bo Peep ("Toy Story").

But the fun doesn't end there. Throughout Disneyland Resort, guests can expect to come across many more Pixar characters. For example, at Disney California Adventure park's Hollywood Backlot, guests may have the chance to see Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl ("The Incredibles") in their retro super suits. For those seeking adventure, Dug ("Up") can be found near Redwood Creek Challenge Trail, interacting with Wilderness Explorers of all ages.
