Disneyland Resort is in the midst of some big changes and something NEW has just been announced.

A new store is making its way to Avengers Campus, Splash Mountain has permanently CLOSED to become Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, and one restaurant is in the process of becoming a Tiana-themed spot. But now there’s something new to look forward to if you plan to visit Disneyland Resort in the evening!

A brand new Pixar film — Elemental — is set to be released on June 16th, 2023, and soon Disney California Adventure Park will have a nighttime addition themed to the movie.

Starting June 2nd, a NEW water short — called Elemental Connection — will be available to watch at Disney California Adventure Park!

The “water short” will highlight the stories and characters from Elemental, and will be presented as a pre-show to the park’s typical nighttime water show, World of Color — ONE.

There will be projections across screens of water, fountains, and music. It’ll only be available for a limited time and will run just about 2 minutes.

Disney says that in seeing the show, “you’ll see that stepping out of your element may help you uncover who you really are, just like Ember and Wade.”

For those not familiar with Elemental, the new Pixar movie will follow Ember and Wade, two unlikely friends that end up sharing a lot in common. Ember is a fiery woman with a predestined fate — to own her family’s shop. She’s heard her whole life that “elements do not mix,” but begins to question the mantra when she meets Wade, a “go-with-the-flow” guy who encourages her to live her life to her own standards.

Tickets for the film are available to buy and we’ve seen merchandise released for it too.

Be sure to stop by Disney California Adventure to catch the pre-show themed to the film before it’s gone! For more Disneyland updates, click here to learn about the NEW snacks coming to the resort, and see how one Disneyland hotel is dramatically CHANGING.
