Off the Beaten Path Park Experiences

PFF=Princess Fantasy Faire, aka what used to be Carnation Plaza Gardens. Come on by any Saturday evening, usually from 7:30 pm to 10-ish! You'll be most welcome!

Wow, awesome. Thank you. I’ll definitely put that on my list. I’m a little surprised, though. The area seems a little cramped for dancing. Do they do it under the tent where shows are usually performed?

Yes. This has been going on since before it was PFF. I used to go watch all the time when it was "Carnation Gardens." When they switched to PFF we were scared they'd stop, but they figured it out!

Yes, Walt started this tradition. The bands used to be real headliners. Can you believe Duke Ellington once played at DL? (https://www.ocregister.com/2013/06/12/swing-dancing-returns-to-disneyland/)

Stan Kenton and his orchestra was there (got to see him!) and Cab Calloway and his band.... So many big names played there in the 60s/70s....

DH and I like to ride the monorail from Tomorrowland to Downtown Disney and have lunch at Earl of Sandwich.
