I heard that Disney is tossing around ideas to increase attendance at DCA. A couple of ideas are a Food and Wine Festival and a Segway Tour.
What other tours or events would you like to see brought to California?
Definitely a food and wine festival--awesome idea!
They need to bring the Country Bear Jamboree back...and put it in the Grizzly Bear area of DCA since there is no room in DL!
Also, there need to be more indoor adventure rides like Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, Snow White, Pinocchio--not necessarily these stories, but the kind where you go inside the ride and experience it. The carnival rides in the Boardwalk area and the kiddie rides in the Bug's Life area don't compare. I would say to redo some of the Bug's Life rides to have more indoor experience rides...like a Mr. Toad's Wild Ride but have it Flick's Adventure, for example. DCA needs about half a dozen of these and I think the ride issue is the one of the biggest causes for it's attendance problems.
Also, I never even walk through the Hollywood part of the park. I think a Little Mermaid type show in this area would help (like in MGM studios in FLA). It could be any Disney movie, not just Little Mermaid, but the concept is a good one and is sorely missed at DCA. Also, again, more indoor experience rides in this area.
It would be easy to take out a few carnival games and put in an indoor Little Mermaid adventure ride near King Triton's carrousel--believe me, since there is no Little Mermaid ride like this at the MK or DL, the lines would be around the corner! I've always wished for a Beauty and the Beast ride or a Sleeping Beauty adventure ride, but I guess these don't really fit in the DCA theme anywhere!
