STOR-eeeeee like WALL-eeeeee - pixar theming integrating into the store here! Disney cast members were always so friendly when I popped in, greeting me and asking if help was needed. It's a great little gift shop for souvenirs but for any convenience or sundries needs, it's very minimal. I feel like as a hotel shop it should have some more personal care type items, things people forget at home, etc. They didn't have a brush or comb for purchase which was sad for me! They do have several bottles of wine and other liquor for purchase though, go figure. However, if you want Disney gifts, they can definitely be found here. Tons of fun items for gifts and even though I'm hating on it, they do have SOME personal care items. So if you're missing things, it is worth stopping in to try here before heading to Downtown Disney. Stor-E isn't a gift shop you should venture out of Disneyland for at all. There are magical Disney things throughout - the scuba mask from Finding Nemo, the odometer and balloons from Up, Hank's coffee pot from Finding Dory and more, ranging from the large and colorful to the small and precious. That being said, if you are staying at Pixar Place Hotel, it's right off the main lobby. Why not stop in for a little Disney retail therapy while chilling at the property. When you walk in the main entrance on the 1st floor, you'll find it around the corner on the right, before you get to the Great Maple restaurant.

Gallery hours are Saturday/Sunday from 12-3PM. They are closed this Labor Day weekend. I missed the door to this place as it is an unmarked door with the signage hung high at the corner of this building. There's a little paper with the exhibit next to the door, but from across the street, I couldn't really tell where this place was going to be. I passed it on foot a couple of times before I asked some people standing in a parking lot. Luckily, one of the ladies was Mia! If you come here for any exhibit, it is recommended that you call first to make sure they're open. They were actually closed when I drove here on a Friday afternoon. Mia was so great, she let me in even though they were closed. I paid her the $5 fee and began taking in the sights. Since it was just the two of us (her & me), she told me about the exhibit, how the art was made, and gave me ample time in The Infinity Pod. This installation I saw was called "Burning Light" by Darren Sarkin. You will see the Gallery and The Infinity Pod. The room is covered in Mylar and then the space was decorated. They have lights which change colors adding a cool effect to the room. There are a few pieces of charred (burnt) wood from forest fires that have been turned into sculpture art. He places L.E.D. lights and crystals inside. The other art pieces are made with resin and paints. My main reason for coming here was to experience The Infinity Pod. It is the size of a shower stall. Inside is a dodecagon of 12 mirrors with lights which change in sequence. I took pictures with my phone and then Mia had the camera inside the room take 4 pictures. If you go to Radiant Space on Facebook, you can find your picture and download it. I found mine! A portion of these proceeds will be donated to the L.A. County Fire Dept. Wildland Firefighters. I spent under a half hour in the gallery since it was a small space.

A lot of what is sold here is original works too if you're interested in that kind of thing. You can also ask them to hold onto bigger items here to pick up later (had a friend do that for a particularly large snow globe), so keep that in mind. It's located as you walk down Hollywood Land and you can't miss it since the sign has all of the classic animated characters literally coming off of the page. You can watch artist doe their live sketching here as well. Friend also really liked that you can get Precious Moments Disney figures here (when we visited) and of course, the Thomas Kincade Disney artwork. Many of the prints come in various sizes as well and it's neat to rifle through the metal sliding curtain thing to view them. Magic Key discounts work here the last time I visited and the price is normal for most things Disney. Unique place to get a truly unique keepsake for yourself or gift for a fellow Disney loving adult.

The Night Market itself was alright there wasn't many vendors or much of really anything to occupy our time with. The screen they were showing Back To The Future on was relatively small and just wasn't an all around enjoyable size for the large group of people in the park. What this appeared to be was something that wasn't a too well thought out idea had they had a bigger screen we might have stayed longer than the first few minutes of the movie. The atmosphere on the other hand was killer I mean come on your in a park next to the awesomeness that is the Packing District so that was definitely a plus as was the free admission to the event. Hopefully they do this again sometime and put a bit more planning into the event as it could potently be a spectacular family friendly outing for all ages to enjoy!

We found a good spot two blocks down from the packing house. -the people were great, the etsy vendors had amazing creations and ideas for my wedding. -lines were long inside but they didn't take long to get through, service was fast.

Other then that, it was great, would've liked a little more vendors around to keep me occupied while waiting for the movie but other then that well done. My family and I had an amazing time! It was especially awesome to see the Disneyland fireworks going off in the background as that's my favorite thing about Disney.

The service is not up to par with Disney. I mean I didn't need anything but they don't greet you when you come in. I had zero interactions with any of the staff here. Nonetheless, the store itself is pretty big. They have plenty of Disney merch but not like the World of Disney store. They also have some snack and drink items. Of course, if you need some pharmaceutical items, they have that! I came here twice on my one night stay. That stays plenty on how much I like it!

I got chocolate bars, chocolate covered peanuts, rice crispy treats, coconut patties, and Mickey shaped cheese snacks. So good! They even have a small cooler with the Disney ice cream bars and ice cream sandwiches. They have plenty of pins, key chains, lanyards, towels, plus all of the necessary sundries. I came in here every day just to see what else I wanted to purchase. The people who worked here were very inviting, helpful, and pleasant.

It's a…read morenight event that happens after the sun sets and 2025 is the first year they've had this event. Tickets are about $40 per adult and $25 for children; there is free and ample parking on-site which is convenient. There are more than 1,000 lantern light displays ranging everywhere from dragons, mermaids, jellyfish, Santa and reindeer, stockings, and many others. They are inspired by Christmas tales featuring mythical creatures and imaginary beasts. Other attractions include a light-up dance floor, mirrored infinity room (for an extra fee), lasers, fog lights, and even Tesla test drives of all things. They also have food trucks, dipping dots, and drinks. We had the cocktail of the day which was the north pole surprise ($10) which was like a hot toddy but was surprisingly good and spirit forward. We also had the dragon's fire ($16) which was balanced and actually really good. We spent about an hour here because it wasn't super big but some families can spend a while here enjoying all the lights and taking pictures. I'd recommend coming earlier in the day to avoid the larger crowds.

My friend and I arrived during our selected time slot, and the entry process was quick and easy. The light displays were pretty and well done, though they did feel a bit random, as there wasn't much of a cohesive story tying them together. There were several dragon displays, a mermaid display, and other aquatic-themed installations. I've never been to Wild Rivers Water Park before, but it seems like a large enough space to support even more light displays. There was also an "infinity room," but we ended up skipping it--the room looked quite small, and the line was long. Overall, I think this event has a lot of potential, and I'd love to see them add more displays or interactive activities in future years.

We checked out the exhibits. It's small but you can learn a thing or two. Glad that we stopped in. We wanted a break from the 20 bus loads of teenagers at the Park.
