Description And Comments

A warm and well-presented remembrance of the man who started it all. Well worth seeing; especially touching for those old enough to remember Walt Disney himself. The attraction lobby consists of a museum of Disney memorabilia. Especially interesting are rotating Disney Gallery displays of concept artwork and historical artifacts.

Beyond the Disney memorabilia, guests are admitted to a large theater where Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln is presented. A patriotic performance, Great Moments stars an extremely lifelike and sophisticated audio-animatronic Abe Lincoln delivering an amalgamation of his notable speeches (though the over-familiar Gettysburg Address is not recited in full) as originally recorded by Royal Dano for the 1964 World's Fair. Lincoln's upgraded head is stunningly emotive, capable of wrinkling his brow and pursing his lips with unrivaled realism. Surround sound effects and songs borrowed from EPCOT’s American Adventure add to this brief but inspiring biography of America’s 16th president. The show is periodically preempted for previews of Disney’s upcoming feature films.

Touring Tips

You usually do not have to wait long for this show, so see it during the busy times of day when lines are long elsewhere or as you are leaving the park. Sit up close to best see the detail on the Lincoln figure, or sit a few rows back for a more comfortable view of the screen. For crowd-control reasons, The Disneyland Story shuts down during evening parades, a fact often not noted in the entertainment schedule.
