Revision as of 07:23, 7 December 2014
Fantasy Faire is an attraction at Disneyland in Anaheim, California that opened on March 12, 2013. Between October 2006 and August of 2012, a similar attraction called "Princess Fantasy Faire" was held in the Fantasyland Theater.
Carnation Plaza Gardens
Prior to it's conversion into the Fantasy Faire, the site was known as the Carnation Gardens Plaza, where musical events were held mostly during the evenings (including dancing events) until it was closed on April 30, 2012. To honor this, a plaque in one of the towers commemorates the site's original usage. The dancing events returned in 2013.
Enter the Princesses
From October 2006 through August of 2012, the original site was in the Fantasyland Theater (nee Videopolis) where guests could meet the princesses (save for Rapunzel until November of 2013 and Merida), share in a coronation ceremony and be part of interactive storytelling. This all changed in July 2011 at the biannual D23 Convention in Anaheim Convention Center, where Disney Imagineers announced a new Fantasy Faire would be placed at the Carnation Gardens Plaza site. The site is an extension as it were of Fantasyland (located near Frontierland) and to the west of Sleeping Beauty Castle.
