EVERYTHING You Need to Know About Disney’s NEW Festival — Pixar Fest!

It’s finally time for Pixar Fest in Disneyland!

We LOVE a good festival, and this one is especially exciting because it’s brand new! We’re taking you with us to enjoy all the new entertainment, character meet and greets, merch, and so much more! Let’s gooooooo!

Pixar Fest runs April 26 through August 4th in Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure, and Downtown Disney. The good news is if you’re not there now, you have plenty of time to plan your trip!

Pixar Fest Merchandise

It wouldn’t be a special event in Disneyland without a collection of limited-edition souvenirs! We’re taking you shopping to check out the special collection of Pixar Fest T-shirts, hoodies, mugs, bags, and more!

We spotted the super popular Lug bag — Pixar-themed — at the Emporium for $65!

Pixar Fest Character Greetings

Disney is promising us meet and greets with our favorite Pixar characters all around Disneyland Resort during the festival! We’re on the hunt for special, rare characters so stay with us to see who we meet.

We ran into some cool characters from Onward — Barley and Ian Lightfoot!

Plus, Wade and Ember from Elemental were meeting fans, too!

Pixar Fest Food

The festival food booths won’t open until May 10th (and you’d better believe we’ll be back to try it all and bring you reviews), but right now, there’s still lots of special food and drinks available around the resort, like this Pineapple Coconut Float inspired by the short Lava. You can get it for $9.29!
