The PeopleMover was a mass transit system within the Disneyland Confederation. When it was in operation, it carried thousands of people—both blue-collar and white-collar—to jobs, homes, and recreation every day. The destruction of the PeopleMover by Pirates in 1995 caused further polarization of the Disneyland electorate, already traumatized by the 11-9 attacks on the Skyway the previous year.

- The PeopleMover was a ride in Tomorrowland at Disneyland. The attraction was also built at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World, but under the name Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover.
- The PeopleMover was an attraction in Tomorrowland at Disneyland in Anaheim, California. The PeopleMover opened as part of New Tomorrowland on July 2, 1967. The attraction's vehicles were always in constant motion, and were accessible by a large turntable inside the station. The PeopleMover was presented by Goodyear. The trains were not powered by motors within themselves, but rather by rotating Goodyear tires embedded in the track, which the trains would pass over every nine feet. The cars were all red, blue, yellow, and green with white roofs until they were repainted all white with colored stripes in the 1980s. The PeopleMover closed in August 1995 as part of Michael Eisner's program to save money by shutting down expensive and classic attractions and was replaced by Rocket Rods in 1998.

The PeopleMover was sponsored by Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company from its opening in 1967 until December 31, 1981, and was colloquially referred to at times as the Goodyear PeopleMover. Among those who provided the PeopleMover's onboard narrations were Jack Wagner and B.J. Ward.
