Small World Towers

Have you ever wondered about the square towers located along the plaza in front of it's a small world?

These towers were built for Light Magic, the parade-esque show that made its debut at Disneyland in 1997. Light Magic was originally designed to replace the irreplaceable 24-year-old Main Street Electrical Parade, which had left for Tokyo Disneyland and then onto the Magic Kingdom at WDW. However, after receiving very unfavorable reviews in May 1997, it was abruptly ended four months later. The company announced that the show would return in 2000 but that never materialized, nor do I think it ever will.

Despite the short-term show, long-term infrastructure improvements made specifically for Light Magic - especially in Fantasyland are still used today.
