5. BoardWalk Street Performers, Disney's BoardWalk

Themed after turn-of-the-century seaside town — think Coney  Island or Atlantic City — the BoardWalk area is a quaint place to take an evening stroll, grab dinner, do some shopping, visit a night club, or enjoy the street performers who wander the area at certain times of day. The BoardWalk is a great place to wander in the evenings, when it's beautifully lit. Keep your eyes open for jugglers, musicians, acrobats, and magicians who tend to roam the boardwalk in the evenings — you never know what you might find!

4. JAMMitors, Epcot

Even the janitors at Disney parks are experts at entertainment, as proven by Epcot's JAMMitors. They perform short shows — from 5 to 10 minutes — in the Future World area of Epcot, playing music using trash cans and other janitorial instruments as percussion and telling plenty of jokes. This STOMP-style show is high energy, lots of fun, and generally more entertaining than you'd think janitors — even Disney janitors — would be.

3. DiVine, Disney's Animal Kingdom

A particularly unusual performer at Disney's Animal Kingdom, DiVine walks on stilts and is covered in leaves and foliage... so much so that, when she's standing in the plant life, you might not notice her at all. When DiVine does make an entrance, she moves with languid, acrobatic grace... the sort that might make you think she may actually be part of the plant life. DiVine typically appears daily, but you may need to talk to a Cast Member to find out exactly when and where she'll be next.

2. Jedi Training Academy, Disneyland, Disney Hollywood Studios

Kids will look forward to participating in the training academy, but a adults are likely to have just as much fun watching it. In each 20 minute show, kids between 4 and 12 will be selected to participate in a Jedi training course, learning how to fight with lightsabers and even dueling Darth Vader himself. The show is never not adorable.

1. Citizens of Hollywood, Disney Hollywood Studios

Nothing says Hollywood like improv, and this comedy troupe roams the streets of Hollywood Studios putting on a show throughout the day — usually with a bit of help from the audience. The Citizens are a diverse group and you can never be sure exactly which of them will be out or where they'll be, so if you're looking for a fun show just keep your eyes open along Hollywood and Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood Studios for any out of the ordinary activity... which could well be this Disney "streetmosphere" team in action!

There's always something happening in Disney parks... and some of the most interesting things might not even make it on the schedule. Be sure to keep your eyes open for entertainment, no matter where you wander!
