Pixar Pier is a themed land at Disney California Adventure, based on that of Victorian boardwalks that were once found along the coast of California. Despite its name and the presence of a nearby human-made lake, Pixar Pier is not actually a pier, but a waterside area of the park. The area opened as Paradise Pier in 2001 along with the rest of the theme park. Toy Story Midway Mania! opened on June 17, 2008, and was the first in a series of theming upgrades to the land and park as a whole. This was followed by changes to the Sun Wheel to become Mickey's Fun Wheel, removing the ears of the Mickey head behind California Screamin’s vertical loop, and new Games of the Boardwalk in 2009. Most of the original Paradise Pier was reimagined as Pixar Pier, which opened on June 23, 2018. The rest of the land was left largely unchanged and turned into its own land named Paradise Gardens Park.
