A Disney Dining Preview Of The Music Of Pixar Live!

Paula K

The Music of Pixar Live! is a brand new limited time show that is running through the summer at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. It debuted on May 26, but I had the privilege of getting a sneak peek on May 25. The Music of Pixar Live! is a lot of fun, and it is something that everyone should try to fit into their summer trip to Walt Disney World.

The new show is a nod to some of the most popular Pixar classics. It’s the perfect blending of live music, scenes from the movies, and characters. Make sure that you arrive early, because the interaction at the beginning with the Green Army Men is hilarious. They also interact with the live orchestra once it is brought out.

The show itself is very well done. The live orchestra recreates part of the score from various movies, while scenes from those movies play flawlessly to the music. Characters from the movies come out as well, adding to the experience. There are also short interview clips to help you see some of the behind the scenes movie making magic. The movies featured are Cars, Finding Nemo, Monsters, Inc., the Toy Story series, and Up. If you’re a fan of any (or all) of these films, you will enjoy the show. I don’t want to give anything away, but the grand finale will have you on your feet and singing along.

The Music of Pixar Live! takes place in The Theater of the Stars. That’s the same theater that houses Beauty and the Beast-Live on Stage but don’t worry, that show is not going anywhere. They will share the space. The Music of Pixar Live! will run three times nightly but is currently scheduled only through August 27, 2017. FastPass+ is not an option, but there are other ways to guarantee your seat. The Music of Pixar Live! and Fantasmic! Dining Package will get you and your party vouchers to both shows, and you’ll be able to enjoy a delicious meal at one of several restaurants. To make a reservation, call 407-WDW-DINE (407-939-3463). Another option is The Music of Pixar Live! Dining Package. You’ll dine at one of Disney’s Hollywood Studios’ best restaurants, and then receive vouchers for your party for just The Music of Pixar Live!. Reservations for that can be made by calling 407-WDW-DINE, or you can make them online.
