Disneyland Musical Chairs

The Disneyland version of the popular children's game musical chairs has become a recent internet discovery thanks to the increased use of videos on YouTube. This event has become so popular thanks to these videos, even though it's not on the official schedules handed out by Disneyland.

The game, which is staged daily on Main Street USA at 2:30 pm at either Coke Corner or on the porch at the Plaza Inn is a simple, straight forward game, usually hosted by Alice and The Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland, along with other characters from Peter Pan, Mary Poppins or whomever might be in the area. Alice does participate in the game, but sometimes if The Mad Hatter character is busy or somewhere else, she takes over as the game hostess.

When the game is down to the final two players, usually guests, The Mad Hatter (or Alice) will tell them to "keep an eye on the chair" for the final round. As the music plays, other characters will bring chairs into the area and turn it into a surreal scene from the 1951 Disney classic. After a brief discussion, both players are declared the winners and get a prize: they have to put away all of the chairs
