Description:
This Gallery, which was originally constructed to be a private apartment for Walt Disney and his important, currently hosts a look at the changes of Disneyland's Tomorrowland. Here guests can find limited edition artwork that they can purchase to take home and sometimes even get to visit with some of Disney's most well known artists for picture signings. To find out if an artist is scheduled to visit the gallery keep on eye out on my What's New page. Also available are different collectibles and books on the art of Disney Parks and movies. The Gallery Balcony is also the location of the Fantasmic! Desert Buffet, please check the Shows section under Fantasmic! for more information.
The Gallery is a very nice place to relax on a busy day or even when you just a little tired. There is an open courtyard in the back for guests to sit and relax. In the evening, don't even think about seeing Fantasmic! from this little perch above New Orleans Square. The balconies are closed off for special guests and those who purchase tickets for the Fantasmic! buffet (which you can do if you want to fork over $35), and the balcony at the entrance is guarded by a cast member who makes sure guests don't stop to watch the show.
Reviews:
In my opinion this attraction should be seen by all who enter the park. I don't know about everyone else but I don't feel obligated to spend money in the gallery.So for you to say its not something that needs to be seen on a limited budget is absurd.There is lots of history here,and no matter what the gallery is currently hosting it is a lesson in Disney history and a look towards the future of the park.Also if you can afford to fork out the $35,the balcony is the best place to watch fantasmic for two reasons.Of course the view up there is great and the other reason is you pay the money or put your name on the list whatever the case may be and you have a reserved spot you dont have to stand and wait in for an hour before the show starts.Oh yeah and they have dessert and coffee too! Ok,I;m done.Keep up the good work,you have one of the best Disneyland web pages out there!
