In 1956, Carnation Plaza Gardens opened at the end of Main Street, U.S.A. The following year, the Date Nite at Disneyland promotion ensured that this quaint area of the park would become one of the liveliest, featuring some of the greatest bands in American music and a 60+ years tradition of weekend swing dancing. Discoveryland is a Disneyland history podcast that focuses on a different extinct attraction, show, event, restaurant, or shop in each episode.

Find your favorite princess in Disneyland's new royal Fantasy Faire, and take a trip backstage as Mousetalgia competes in Minnie's Moonlit Madness, a cutthroat cast member competition! First, we report on the mostly-annual "Madness," a trivia contest and scavenger hunt that takes place in Disneyland Park after it closes to the public. We're joined by Imagineer Josh Shipley to discuss the struggles, strategies and secrets behind the contest, which is hours of pure fun - and learn how Mousetalgia ended up representing Walt Disney World in the competition! Next, we report from the AP Preview of Disneyland's newest addition, the Princess Fantasy Faire. We review the new food, entertainment, and environments of the just-opened Faire, and offer our opinions on this replacement for the lamented Carnation Plaza Gardens. Plus - our exclusive review of "Oz the Great and Powerful," Don Hahn on Frankenweenie, new Disneyland Hotel deals - and more!

The DisGeek Crew is joined by Chris Wakefield of the Wakefield Report. We talked to Chris who is a WDW fan to find out what he thought and how it compared to his home parks in Orlando. We also visit the Main Street Newsstand and give out our Tip of the Week. It's a HUGE show! Please enjoy and review in iTunes. News Tony Baxter Retires Mouseplanet posted his announcement email to his colleagues today: Fantasy Faire opens March 12thThe former Carnation Plaza Gardens stage and dance floor will now be called The Royal Theatre with shows featuring characters from Beauty and the Beast and Tangled. At The Royal Hall, there will be three princess meet and greet areas.Food items include new cheddar garlic twists, boysen apple freeze and a yogurt parfait from Maurice's Treats. During the Q&A, swing dancing was brought up MousePlanet tweeted out their response saying “The stage is flexible, but the decision will be made later. For now, full-time Fantasy Faire.” Nescafe Coffee is leaving Disneyland Disney has entered into a long-term agreement with Joffrey's Coffee and Tea Co to provide the standard coffee at Walt Disney World, Disneyland, and Disney Vacation Club properties. In addition, Joffrey's will develop special blends exclusive to Disney and resort hotel rooms will all have a catalog where guests can purchase Joffrey's products to take home. These changes will be complete within the next few months. Just to give you an idea how quickly Limited time magic goes, we have had two events go since our last recording. And two more events come and go. What has ended is Golden Horseshoe Review Tribute and the New Orleans Bayou Bash. What has COME and go meaning the event happened and is now gone Lunar New Year at DCA and True Love Week Extended hours at DCA on Thursdays. 2 extra hours to enjoy. Finally it seems that they will now start enforcing fastpass return times as they recently did in Florida. Of course this draws outrage from the fan community which frankly I don't understand. Signs has gone up although I understand the enforcement is not actually in place yet. Signs are up merely to start getting passholders used to the idea. Feature - Talk with Chris Wakefield of the Wakefield Report.             Tip of the Week - Visit World of Disney and check out Thomas Kinkade hidden images.  Thanks to Richard for the tip!

Thanks for downloading WEDWay Radio, a show about Disney Parks, Disney History and touring.  This is episode 115: Date Night at Disneyland On this episode we celebrate a tradition that Disneyland began in the late 1950's that centered around the Carnation Plaza Gardens.  This show is both a history of both the Carnation Plaza Gardens and a history of the live music that occupied the area. The area is was first home to the Disneyland bandstand after it was forced to move as it obstructed the view of the Sleeping Beauty Castle from the hub.  It was so popular that a large outdoor dance hall was built in 1956, which stood there untl May of 2012 where it will be replaced by the Princess Fantasy Fair.  Enjoy this show!  ------------------------------- Check out the show notes for this and every episode of WEDWay Radio at wedwayradio.com Follow us on Twitter, Facebook and Google+ Twitter: Twitter.com/WedwayRadio Facebook: Facebook.com/WedwayRadio Google+: bit.ly/Gpluswedway We want to thank you again for listening!
