World of Color Happiness! is a stunning nighttime spectacular that takes place out on California Adventure’s Paradise Bay, where the water comes to life with projections, music, and other special effects. The show is inspired by Walt Disney’s opening day dedication of Disneyland back in 1955: “To all who come to this happy place… welcome!” Guests will see a special pre-show featuring The Muppets, plus characters from Inside Out, The Incredibles, A Goofy Movie, Inside Out 2, and Encanto (along with other films) during the show.
