Starting in January 2025, Disneyland Paris will unveil a brand-new evening show for Disneyland Park, replacing the current Disney Illuminations with a production featuring drones, fireworks, and video projections. The announcement was made during the Horizons: Disney Experiences Showcase at the D23 Expo in California.

This daily show at Disneyland Park will feature iconic songs from famous Disney and Pixar films. Although the show’s name has yet to be revealed, it will mark a first for Disneyland Paris by incorporating video projections on the buildings of Main Street U.S.A., in addition to the traditional castle projections.

Described as “a journey filled with emotion and nostalgia,” the show aims to remind visitors that “true magic lies within every moment of life.” A concept image released during the presentation features characters from Beauty and the Beast, Mulan, Sleeping Beauty, Pinocchio, The Lion King, Inside Out, Encanto, and Moana.

The show will also feature drones forming visuals, such as Lilo and Stitch sitting in a rocket—marking the first time drones will be used in a regular evening show at Disneyland Paris. Previously, drones were only seen in special events like Bastille Day or pre-shows like the Disney Electrical Sky Parade.
