Description
On Feb. 8, 2001, Disneyland Resort added a second theme park to its property in Anaheim. News 8 was there for Disney California Adventure Park's first day and night of operation and grand opening celebration.
A red carpet at the grand opening bash featured celebrities including George Lucas, Dick Van Dyke, Whoopi Goldberg, Mickey Rooney, Andy Garcia and more. David Cassidy said, "I like the idea that you can go to a place and lose yourself and just be a new child."
News 8 reporter Phil Blauer also got a look at various parts of the park like the Hollywood Backlot and rides like California Screamin' (later reopened as Incredicoaster.)
The last part of this collection of clips includes Blauer getting some facetime with John Stamos who was performing with The Beach Boys at the grand opening.
