California Screamin' debuted with the park's grand opening on February 8, 2001. Designed by [[Werner Stengel]] and built by [[Intamin]], it features a track length of {{Convert|6072|ft}}, making it the [[List of roller coaster rankings#Length rankings|sixth-longest steel coaster]] in the world and third-longest in the US behind [[Fury 325]] at [[Carowinds]] and [[Millennium Force]] at [[Cedar Point]]. Materials used to build the attraction included {{convert|11,500,000|lb}} of concrete for the footers, {{convert|36|mi}} of electric cables, {{convert|167|mi}} of conductors, and {{convert|5,800,000|lb|}} of steel.<ref name="BlastFromThePast-NPN" /> It also became the longest roller coaster in the world to feature an inversion after the vertical loop on [[Son of Beast]] at [[Kings Island]] was removed in 2006.{{Citation needed|date=June 2023}}

Like several other coasters in Disney Parks, California Screamin' featured an onboard audio soundtrack during the ride, created by [[Gary Hoey]] and [[George Wilkins (composer)|George Wilkins]].<ref>{{Citation|title=Disney's California Adventure by Various Artists on iTunes|date=2001-01-01|url=https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/disneys-california-adventure/609144443|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180626054427/https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/disneys-california-adventure/609144443|url-status=dead|archive-date=June 26, 2018|language=en-US|access-date=2018-06-25}}</ref> On January 3, 2007, as part of the "Rockin' Both Parks" campaign, the audio track was temporarily replaced by a remixed version of "[[Around the World (Red Hot Chili Peppers song)|Around the World]]" by [[Red Hot Chili Peppers]], and the attraction was renamed Rockin' California Screamin'. This was promoted along with Rockin' Space Mountain, a similar change made to [[Space Mountain (Disneyland, Anaheim)|Space Mountain]] in [[Disneyland]], though that ride's audio was changed to the Red Hot Chili Peppers' cover version of "[[Higher Ground (Red Hot Chili Peppers song)|Higher Ground]]".

After the refurbishment of Disney California Adventure, from 2008 to 2009 the Mickey Mouse head located behind the vertical loop was changed to a sunburst icon with the Paradise Pier logo.

On July 15, 2017, Disney announced a complete renovation of Paradise Pier, renaming it Pixar Pier.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2017/07/new-pixar-pier-to-bring-favorite-pixar-stories-to-life-at-disney-california-adventure-park-limited-time-pixar-fest-celebration-coming-throughout-disneyland-resort/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170716220209/https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2017/07/new-pixar-pier-to-bring-favorite-pixar-stories-to-life-at-disney-california-adventure-park-limited-time-pixar-fest-celebration-coming-throughout-disneyland-resort/|url-status=dead|archive-date=July 16, 2017|title=New Pixar Pier to Bring Favorite Pixar Stories to Life at Disney California Adventure Park; Limited-Time Pixar Fest Celebration Coming Throughout Disneyland Resort}}</ref> Meanwhile, rumors began to circulate that California Screamin' would be rethemed to [[Pixar|Pixar Animation Studios]]' ''[[The Incredibles]]''.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.latimes.com/travel/themeparks/la-tr-pixar-pier-disney-california-adventure-20171028-story.html|title=What to expect from Pixar Pier at Disney California Adventure|website=[[Los Angeles Times]]|date=October 28, 2017}}</ref> On November 2, it was confirmed that the ride would be remodeled.
