18 July 1965

Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln opens to the public (the day after its official dedication) at the new and specially constructed Opera House on Main Street USA at Disneyland. Named after the World's Fair attraction, it is presented by Lincoln Savings and Loan Association.

Also at Disneyland, the Red Wagon Inn re-opens as the Plaza Inn, a cafeteria-style restaurant. The Red Wagon Inn, opened since July 17, 1955, was the park's top restaurant and Walt's personal favorite.
