Disneyland closes Club Pixar Dance Party

Pixar Fest says goodbye to Club Pixar!

The nighttime dance party wrapped up its run on Sunday, June 2nd. While initially planned to last through Pixar Fest (ending August 4th), guest feedback and operational changes led to its early closure.

There seems to be a glitch with Club Pixar information.

  • The Disneyland Resort mobile app shows Club Pixar as Closed. This is likely the most accurate source.
  • The official website lists Club Pixar as open from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. through July 15th, but this might be outdated.

Since Pixar Fest runs until August 4th, the website info could be wrong.

Here’s what to do:

  • Rely on the mobile app information for now.
  • Call Disneyland customer service or check the website closer to your visit for the latest updates.

This will ensure you have the most accurate information about Club Pixar before heading to the park.

According to The Orange County Register, guests can enjoy Pixar-themed games, screenings, character photo opportunities, and food and drinks in the area from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. throughout the remaining festival, ending on August 4th.

Reportedly, this entertainment cut was due to the recent unionization of Disneyland Resort entertainment Cast Members with Actorsโ€™ Equity.

Arnold Palmer Golf Management has announced the Walt Disney Worldยฎ Resort will host the 2024 PGA Family Golf Championship at Disney’s Palm Golf Course on September 28th and 29th. This special event continues to build on the strong foundation laid by the PGA Junior League and marks another significant milestone in family-oriented golf experiences.

A Celebration of Family and Golf

Introduced by the PGA of America in 2022, the PGA Family Golf program builds upon the success of the PGA Junior League, which has seen active participation from Arnold Palmer Golf Management annually at Disney’s world-class courses. The championship encourages families to come together, blending the spirit of competition with family fun. According to Alex Forsyth, PGA, Director of Sales and Marketing at Arnold Palmer Golf Management, “The family nature of this tournament makes it the perfect event to be held at the Walt Disney Worldยฎ golf courses,” highlighting the resort’s commitment to family-oriented activities.

Tournament Structure and Divisions

The 2024 championship promises two days of exciting golf action, accommodating teams of 2 to 4 players who are either biologically or legally related. Participants can compete in one of four divisions:

  • Junior Division: Teams must include at least one adult and one junior, making it a wonderful opportunity for parents and children to team up.
  • Adult Division: All-adult teams can show off their skills and camaraderie on the greens.
  • Professional Adult Division: At least one member must be a PGA of America or LPGA Professional, elevating the level of play.
  • Professional Junior Division: Combining professional expertise with youthful enthusiasm, these teams must include both a professional and a junior.

Competition Format

The championship kicks off with a scramble format in the first round, where teams choose the best tee shot among two players, then continue from that spot. This format is especially engaging in the junior division, where each shot must see participation from both an adult and a junior, ensuring everyone plays a pivotal role.

The final round switches to a modified alternate shot format. Here, after the best tee shot is selected, team members alternate shots until the ball is holed. This format not only tests precision and teamwork but also ensures that all team members contribute significantly to the game.

The speculation map hints at four additional houses based on popular intellectual properties, stirring widespread anticipation. A Cadillac with a frosty overlay suggests a chilling new take in a Ghostbusters house, likely inspired by the themes from the recently released Frozen Empire film. An icon indicating no audio could be teasing a house based on the silence-centric horror, A Quiet Place, aligning with the release of A Quiet Place: Day One. A female symbol topped with the Bride of Frankensteinโ€™s iconic hairstyle hints at a Universal Monsters theme focusing on her eerie legacy. Lastly, an image of a lantern could be nodding towards an Insidious-themed house, bringing the terrifying entities from The Further back to life.
