Live Entertainment
Disney's Hollywood Studios has featured numerous forms of in-park entertainment throughout its history. During its early years, the park featured the "Star Today" program, with a daily celebrity guest. The celebrity would often be featured in a motorcade along Hollywood Boulevard, or would take part in a handprint ceremony at the Great Movie Ride's entrance, or even participate in an interview session.

Many of the park's costumed entertainers are not related to any particular film or TV show. Instead, they are live-action caricatures of figures from Hollywood's history. Originally dubbed "streetmosphere" by Disney and now called the "Citizens of Hollywood", they appear at regular intervals on Hollywood and Sunset Boulevards. Some of these characters include directors, talent agents, starlets or hopefuls, and will often take part in streetside shows that will include audience participation.

Today, guests are treated to a wide array of characters and performers, many of which make their only Walt Disney World appearances at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Some examples include characters from Henry Hugglemonster, Mickey Mouse & Kim Possible. Similarly, characters from new Disney and Pixar animated features will make their Walt Disney World debuts at the park, such as those from Bolt and Pixar's Ratatouille. Live musical acts, such as the cover band The Fab Four and the a cappella quartet Four For a Dollar, will perform on the park streets or as pre-show entertainment at the larger shows.

Like the Magic Kingdom and Disney's Animal Kingdom parks, Disney's Hollywood Studios also runs daily parades down Hollywood Boulevard. Hollywood Dreams parade features many Movies & TV shows performing in a street along Hollywood Boulevard and near New York City. & at night at Hollywood Boulevard at the front of the Chinese Theater a nightime show before a firework Spectacular Hollywood is Magical, The villains capture The Magic of the Movies & Hollywood and it's up to Mickey to free them and bring back The Memories of Hollywood. is the same show as in It's Magical at Tokyo Disneyland & Splashtacular at Epcot but with new characters featuring: Darth Vader, Yoda, R2-D2 & C-3PO, Stormtroopers, Han Solo from Star Wars, & the Disney Villains. Sorcery in the Sky: 100 Years of Hollywood, is a fireworks and projection mapping show. Taking place behind of The Great Movie Ride, An announcer introduces the guests to the show and shouts "Light, camera, action!" to set the stage. At this point, the sounds of a flickering projector and A traditional fanfare, complete with 100 high powered searchlights (most of which form a diamond over the Chinese Theater) & then play A medley of the various musical pieces from the film play before the grand finale, A bright ensemble of fireworks punctuate the finale with Perimeter 360 firework & fire finale and the show ends as confetti is launched from the rooftops of Hollywood Boulevard. & the director says Cut that a wrap.

Hollywood Boulevard
Hollywood Boulevard is lined with shops selling Disney merchandise and food. This is also the location of Hollywood Dreams Parade. & it's also  the same principle as Main Street, U.S.A. — a street lined with shops and food, but in a style more fitting to the Studios.

Rides & Attractions: Ride:
 * The Great Movie Ride,  is a guided vehicle dark ride located in Disney's Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World. The attraction employs the use of Audio-Animatronic figures, live actors, special effects, and projections to recreate iconic scenes from Alot of classic films throughout motion picture history which is located inside a recreation of the Chinese Theatre, a famous Hollywood movie palace.
 * CinéMagique, is a theatre show at Disney's Hollywood Studios mixing the live performance of an actor with synchronized movie scenes on a big screen which is located inside Warner Beverly Hills Theater.
 * The Twilight Zone Tower Of Terror, is an accelerated drop tower dark ride located at Disney's Hollywood Studios, this version is going to be the Florida Version but with the drop sounds from Disney's California Adventure & Disney Studios in Florida. Queue & Pre-Show are going be the Florida Version.

In this version of the attraction, Rod Serling's voice greets passengers the moment the elevator doors close, saying: You are the passengers on a most uncommon elevator... With a flash of lightning, the walls of the basement disappear altogether, leaving only a starfield around the service doors with a rotating purple spiral. ''...about to take the strangest journey of your lives. Your destination? Unknown. But this much is clear: a reservation has been made in your name for an extended stay. ''The elevator rises quickly to the fifth floor. Because the dark ride portion of California's tower takes place in the drop shaft, the physical vertical vehicle conveyance system can move much more quickly and nimbly than Florida's (in which the first tower functions only as a dark ride and is not built for the quick movements that the drop portion requires). As such, visitors feel a moment of weightlessness as the elevator quickly ascends and then stops on the fifth floor. When the doors open, an ornate, wood-framed mirror stands in a brightly lit hallway of the hotel and riders see their reflection in its glass. Serling then says: ''Wave goodbye to the real world. ''Suddenly, lightning strikes the hotel and the lights of both the hallway and elevator flicker out. A ghostly wind blows through a window and the reflection of riders in the elevator becomes distorted. With another blast, the elevator rumbles and shakes and with a final blast of lightning the electrified reflection disappears, leaving only the image of the empty elevator in the mirror as the doors close. For you have just entered the Twilight Zone.The elevator descends and opens to reveal the "hallway" scene with an image of another elevator at the other end of the hallway, unlike Florida's version which shows a window. ''What happened here to dim the lights of Hollywood's brightest showplace is about to unfold once again. ''The five missing guests appear in the hallway, crackling with electricity and beckon riders to follow them. They disappear, and the walls of the hotel become a starfield, The window morphs into the window from Season 5 opening and breaks, as in the opening sequence of the television series. The elevator doors close and the car continues its ascent. Serling's narration goes on, saying:''One stormy night long ago, five people stepped through the door of an elevator and into a nightmare. That door is opening once again, and this time, it's opening for you. ''The elevator stops once more. The doors open to what at first looks like a maintenance room, but slowly transforms into a field of stars. The elevator car emerges horizontally from the lift shaft and enters a section of the ride called The Fifth Dimension, which is a bizarre collection of sights and sounds and starfields, again in the style of the television show's opening sequence. A rendition of The Twilight Zone opening sequence plays throughout. The scene ends as the elevator reaches another star field which splits and opens much like elevator doors. The elevator enters another vertical shaft, this one pitch black. Serling's voice is heard again, saying: ''You are about to discover what lies beyond the fifth dimension, beyond the deepest, darkest corner of the imagination, in the Tower of Terror. ''On the last word of Serling's narration, The Elevator drops into Two small drops occur in pitch-black darkness, followed by a rise to the top of the tower as in-cabin lights flicker. The doors then open out to reveal the view from the top floor before the ride drops briefly, pauses, The elevator then rises to the top of the tower, shudders, and falls remainder of the shaft. The elevator then rises and immediately drops without stopping in complete darkness. The elevator then rises to the top of the tower, shudders, and falls again. then they enter into a projection images each images are different they images are the breaking window, wind effects, lightning flashes, and ominous bluelit figures of the five ghostly original riders. These changes were made so that each trip on The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror is a slightly different experience. then after the projection image then drop & back up the tower again and then falls to the bottom of the shaft to the area in between the two loading floors (to assure each ride is identical) before the elevator returns to its load level and is horizontally pushed back into place at the boiler room service doors. Then we past a curious array of abandoned items. A short clip plays, showing elements from the season five opening sequence, along with the 1939 elevator passengers and Rod Serling, falling into the "vortex" seen in the season three opening sequence. Rod Serling's voice says: ''A warm welcome back to those of you who made it, and a friendly word of warning, something you won't find in any guidebook. The next time you check into a deserted hotel on the dark side of Hollywood, make sure you know just what kind of vacancy you're filling. Or you may find yourself a permanent resident... of the Twilight Zone. ''Guests then exit the elevator, leaving the hotel through the gift shop. Parade Units

The Show
The show starts off with the "Ballet Chase." After lots of action, the scene ends with the hero car, along with three pursuit cars, jumping a bridge, the hero car facing backwards as well as a specially designed pursuit car being blown in half. Afterwards, they introduce the hero car driver and tell of a twin car that was designed so that the driver faces out the back, making the backwards jump much safer. The next scene, the "Blockade" has multiple obstacles in the way. The hero, in the end drives up the back of a truck bed, over the "touch" truck, and down onto an airbag right before the scenes ends. The third hero car, with the driver on the side is now shown, with the driver hidden. After choosing a kid in the audience in chosen to "drive" the car, they eventually will "lose control" of the vehicle and it will turn around showing the driver. The second to last sequence, the "Motorcycle Chase" has the stunt coordinator falling from about thirty feet from a building into an airbag. They will also have the hero jump on a jet ski before the final part of the scene where the hero shoots at barrels starting a fire. One of the pursuit motorcycle driver falls off his motorcycle into a fire, which is real. He is wearing multiple layers of clothing and special paint that is on fire, not the clothing. This takes about thirty minutes to fully put on. They show the finished product with scenes that are prerecorded before the final scene begins automatically. The hero comes out before heading back behind the scenes, coming out a few seconds later driving out of a second-story window, down the "Blockade" truck bed and up a central ramp. Explosives fire when it jumps into the tunnel under the grandstands. After the explosives, all the pursuit cars and motorcycles, as well as all four versions of the hero car come out.
