Originally published at Disney Parks News
With the 30th anniversary of Disneyland Paris coming to a close on September 30, 2023 the resort has some incredible finale experiences planned for guests. From a brand-new Marvel drone show performed daily featuring your favorite Super Heroes and the return of the Disney Dreams! nighttime spectacular to the launch of a new show “Pixar: We Belong Together,” we’re thrilled to share details on this exciting news!
“Avengers: Power the Night”
From January 28, 2023, through May 8, 2023, guests will be treated to an incredible drone show that will light up the night skies at Walt Disney Studios Park. This exclusive new show dedicated to fan-favorite Super Heroes combines music, lights, pyrotechnic effects and video projections onto the Tower of Terror.
And that’s not all – up to 500 drones (yes, 500!) will form a series of lighting sequences themed to the powers of heroic Super Heroes. Such as Captain America, Captain Marvel, Scarlet Witch and, for the first time at Disneyland Paris, Shang-Chi. Innovation is in our DNA, and we’re excited to embrace a breadth of technological elements to bring these stories to life in thrilling new ways.
But no show is complete without great music – and “Avengers: Power the Night” will not disappoint on the tunes! The show will feature a soundtrack composed of some of the most iconic scores that were reorchestrated with a symphony orchestra. Including more than 70 musicians at the famous Abbey Road Studios in London.
Disney Dreams®! Nighttime Spectacular
It’s back! Beginning April 12, 2023, Disney Dreams! will return and take guests on a magical and emotional journey following the “Disney D-Light” Drone show. Projections of some of the greatest Disney stories will illuminate Sleeping Beauty Castle, guided by Peter Pan’s shadow.
Not only will the story stay with you long after you watch it, but you’ll find yourself whistling the soundtrack on your way home. And how could it not with songs from fan-favorite movies….? Such as Walt Disney Animation’s “Beauty and the Beast,” “The Lion King,” and more.
The projection mapping technology used creates illusions of rotating towers and swinging motions on the walls of the castle. And, thanks to innovative LED technology that will deck the rooftops of the castle, Sleeping Beauty Castle will light up in sync with the show’s nostalgic soundtrack. Quel show fantastique!
“Pixar: We Belong Together”
As previously shared at the D23 Expo, a brand-new stage show is coming to Walt Disney Studios Park! “Pixar: We Belong Together” will take guests on a journey with their favorite Pixar Pals. Combining incredible technology, light effects, and iconic songs, the show will take guests on a journey to find out how friendship brings us all together. This is a can’t miss if you’re a Pixar fan!
Many more surprises await those who plan a visit during the resort’s 30th anniversary grand finale. Including a brand-new collection of exclusive merchandise, delicious food and beverages, the reopening of ‘it’s a small world’ and much more!
