A brand-new attraction is opening in Disneyland, and ever since it was announced, we’ve been eagerly waiting to sit in the theater and watch this show.
Disneyland
Walt Disney — A Magical Life is opening on July 17th and will rotate with Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, located right on Main Street. If you want to catch the show, you need to know this important detail before you scan into Disneyland.
The new attraction will utilize a virtual queue system to manage guest flow.

The first drop will be at 7 AM, and guests will need to have a park reservation for Disneyland. For the second drop at 12 PM, guests will need to be in Disneyland or Disney California Adventure to get a virtual queue spot.

What is this new show? Walt Disney — A Magical Life will feature the very first Walt Disney animatronic, where you’ll learn more about Walt inside his office. The opening date for this attraction has been pushed back to July 17th, and it’s almost time!
“Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln”
Disneyland is currently celebrating its 70th anniversary and has been welcoming new snacks, merchandise, and ride updates. Adding this Walt Disney attraction feels like a full-circle moment for Disneyland, bringing it back to its beginning.

We’re going to be keeping an eye on this to see how easy it is to get a virtual queue as well as how long this system will be in place. Sometimes virtual queues are only there for the first bit of opening, and some are for years to come. Make sure you keep following Disney Food Blog for more!
