I never even set foot in DL's PH, because the concept didn't appeal to me at all. It sounds like I should have given it a chance, but nothing I read about it on the map made it sound worth the time.
I was in the same boat with you, until they added the nighttime Enchantment shows to Pixie Hollow last summer for
Summer Nightastic!. I still have no desire to wait for 45 minutes in that admittedly beautifully themed and landscaped queue for a glorified M&G with Tink and whatever other Politically Correct Pixie they've staffed that shift.
But the light and water
"Pixie Hollow Enchantment" show they do in the lagoon and trees around Pixie Hollow after sundown every 15 minutes is a really neat thing. I hesitate to link this YouTube video, because it's one of those things that can't even begin to be experienced via an amateur YouTube video in the dark, but this is a decent taste of what this show is about. There's actually several different versions, so the same one isn't playing every 15 minutes.

All that said, as nicely done as Disneyland's Pixie Hollow is, the line to meet the pixies is ridiculously slow moving. I had to do it once with my young nieces, and it was like waiting to get on Peter Pan in slow motion. Even with the waterfalls and lagoons and little pixie houses built in the landscaping to look at, it just crawled along at a snails pace.
I really look forward to the M&G's in the
FLE at
WDW, because certainly they are going to be doing something differently with those. Multiple rooms that handle 30 or 40 people at a time? The hourly capacity needs to be in the 700+ per hour range for each M&G, or else it's just going to be horrific.
