Frog Family Tips and Fun Facts about Pixar Pal-A-Round - Swinging

Frog Family Tips

If you easily become dizzy and prefer a more gentle ride experience, choose the stationary gondolas. You'll still be able to have the awesome views of the park!

Fun Facts

Pixar Pal-A-Round first opened as Mickey's Fun Wheel. It was reimagined in 2018 and opened with Pixar Pier.
Pixar Pal-A-Round is one of only 2 "wonder wheel" Ferris wheels still operating in the United States. The other is the original 1920 Wonder Wheel at Coney Island in New York, which was the design inspiration for the original Mickey's Fun Wheel.
