Stay at a Pixar-themed hotel with special vacation financing

The newly renovated Pixar Place Hotel features rooms decorated with artwork from Pixar Animation Studios and is home to the STOR-E shop, where you can pick up souvenirs featuring some favorite Pixar Characters. When it’s time to play, head to the rooftop pool deck to splash around with Nemo and friends in the Pixel Pool or make your way to Pixar Shorts Court to toss Bao-inspired beanbags into steamer baskets. If that sounds like the perfect place for a Pixar Fest vacation, be sure to book your room with your Disney Visa Card to take advantage of special vacation financing, available only to Cardmembers!0
Redeem Disney Rewards Dollars toward Pixar-themed food
Your inner Remy will rejoice at all the delicious food available at the Disneyland® Resort. Grab some food from Flo’s V8 Café, where the burgers will get your motor running, or Alien Pizza Planet, where the pies are galactically good. You can dine at these and other Pixar-inspired restaurants any day of the year, but during Pixar Fest you’ll also be able to indulge in some limited-time sips and treats that pay tribute to your favorite Pixar pals and stories. Wherever you choose to chow down, don’t forget that Cardmembers can redeem Disney Rewards Dollars toward food and drinks, both at the counter and via Mobile Order in the Disneyland app.0
Save 10% limited-time Pixar Fest souvenirs
Wear your Pixar Fest heart on your sleeve with some limited-time festival merchandise! For the ultimate celebration souvenir, check out the Pixar Fest Collection, available exclusively at the Disneyland® Resort. Sport a Spirit Jersey or score one of the collection’s festival-themed hoodies, bucket hats, mugs or water bottles, all of which feature some of your favorite Pixar Pals alongside the official 2024 Pixar Fest logo. Pixar Fest Collection merch is only available during the event, so be sure to grab some before the party ends August 4. The original styles aren’t limited to just the Pixar Fest Collection, though. Other new Pixar collections are adding even more fun looks to the mix! You’ll look on the bright side in colorful clothing from the Pixar Painted Collection, while you can show off your family ties in outfits from the Disney Pixar Toy Story Family Collection, both available at the Disneyland® Resort and online at DisneyStore.com. No matter which collection you shop, you’ll save 10% on your Pixar Fest souvenirs when you pay with your Disney Visa Card.000
Visit Pixar attractions by redeeming toward Lightning Lane entry
Another way to use your Disney Rewards Dollars is to redeem them toward the purchase of Lightning Lane entrances.0 Joining these quicker queues means you’ll have more time to experience everything the park has to offer, like the many thrilling Pixar-themed attractions. There are two ways to purchase Lightning Lane access. You can buy individual entrances to top attractions like Radiator Springs Racers, where you’ll feel the need for speed as you zip through the Cars Land desert. Or you can purchase Disney Genie+ service to get Lightning Lane access on a variety of select attractions, which will put you on the fast track to chase down baby Jack-Jack aboard the adrenaline-spiking Incredicoaster and to save the day from Evil Emperor Zurg in Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters.
Meet Pixar pals and redeem toward Disney PhotoPass service
At the end of the day, Pixar is all about friends, and when you visit the Disneyland® Resort, you have the chance to meet some of your favorite Characters at Character Experiences around the parks. Be sure to look out for Pixar Pals at special locations around Pixar Pier! To make your Pixar Fest memories last, there’s no better tool than Disney PhotoPass service. Pose for a Pixar-themed Magic Shot to find a fun surprise waiting in your photo, or use one of the Disney PhotoPass Lenses to place yourself in a classic story or alongside interactive Characters! Disney Visa Cardholders can redeem Disney Rewards Dollars toward the purchase of Disney PhotoPass or the Disney Genie+ service, which comes with unlimited Disney PhotoPass digital downloads.0
Select the Toy Story card design
Putting a bit of Pixar in your pocket is as simple as choosing the Toy Story design for your Disney Visa Card.0 The front features best buds Woody, Buzz and Jessie on their way to another adventure, and you’ll find a trio of Aliens hiding on the back. If you already have a different design but want to switch things up, don’t worry! You can change your card design as often as you want at no cost.
If you’re a fan of films like Toy Story, Up and Turning Red, it doesn’t get any better than Pixar Fest. Unless, of course, you’re visiting with your Disney Visa Card in your wallet.
