ElecTRONica was a nighttime event at Disney California Adventure, part of the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California. Located in the Hollywood Pictures Backlot section of the park, ElecTRONica premiered on October 8, 2010. The attraction featured music, dancing, beverages and a re-creation of Flynn's Arcade from the Tron franchise. For a limited time, guests could also watch a sneak preview of the 2010 film Tron: Legacy in the Muppet*Vision 3D theater. The attraction was discontinued on April 15, 2012, and was replaced two months later by Mad T Party, another nighttime event based on Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland.

History
Conceived as a tie-in to the Tron: Legacy film, ElecTRONica was a successor of sorts to GlowFest, a nighttime dance party that took place at Disney California Adventure during the summer of 2010. Disney held an open call in September for hip-hop dancers with martial arts experience. ElecTRONica debuted on October 8 and was originally scheduled to run until April. It was then extended through Labor Day, and Disney later announced the event would continue through April 15, 2012. Mad T Party, a similar show based on Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland, replaced it, beginning on June 15, 2012.

Flynn's Arcade
In this replica of the arcade seen in the Tron films, guests played vintage 1980s video games such as Tron (based on the original movie), Battlezone, Centipede, Frogger, Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Junior, Donkey Kong 3, Mario Bros., Popeye, Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, Pole Position, Red Baron and Zaxxon. Flynn's Arcade also housed what Disney Imagineer Craig Pierce claimed was the world's only coin-operated version of Space Paranoids, a game that had previously existed in the original Tron film. All games required a token, or the equivalent of a quarter, to play. Located just outside the arcade, guests could have also played the 2010 Tron: Evolution game.
