Walt Disney – A Magical Life To Utilize Virtual Queue

When Walt Disney – A Magical Life debuts at The Main Street Opera House at Disneyland Park on July 17, 2025, Guests will need to sign up to see the new show via a Virtual Queue.

How The Virtual Queue Will Work

Guests will need to utilize the Disneyland app to request to join the queue. A standby queue will NOT be available at this time while the Virtual Queue is in use.

There will be two opportunities to join the Virtual Queue for Walt Disney – A Magical Life. The first will be at 7:00 a.m. At that time, Guests must have a park reservation for Disneyland Park with a one-park ticket or a Park Hopper ticket. The second drop will be at 12:00 p.m. and those in Disneyland Park, or those in Disney California Adventure with a Park Hopper ticket can then try to join the Virtual Queue.

Do keep in mind that joining the Virtual Queue for this attraction still doesn’t mean that you’ll be guaranteed the ability to see Walt Disney – A Magical Life.

We’ll keep you posted on when this show will stop offering the Virtual Queue and move to a standby queue instead.

About The Show

Walt Disney – A Magical Life will premiere on July 17, 2025. This is the date of the 70th anniversary date of Disneyland Park. To start, Walt Disney – A Magical Life will show only for the duration of the 70th anniversary celebration. (Through the summer of 2026). Once the 70th celebration is over, it will then rotate performances with Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln.

Walt Disney – A Magical Life will open with a viewing of the 15-minute documentary “Walt Disney: One Man’s Dream,” before revealing the Walt animatronic, which will talk to guests for two minutes from an office set with help from historical recordings.
