Mickey’s Dream Becomes a Nighttime Spectacle
As darkness falls over Disneyland, the Rivers of America transform into an epic stage for one of the park’s most breathtaking nighttime shows: Fantasmic. Mickey Mouse, fast asleep, begins to dream—and what follows is a stunning journey of imagination brought to life through fire, water, light, and music.
Classic Disney Magic Comes to Life
The show opens with Mickey as the Sorcerer’s Apprentice, directing iconic scenes from Fantasia across towering water screens. Sparks fly, music swells, and images of Disney favorites—Aladdin, The Lion King, Tangled, and Pirates of the Caribbean—dance across the mist.
With every turn, the Rivers of America become a canvas for dazzling projections and pyrotechnics. Characters appear on stage and aboard passing rivercraft, making it a fully immersive experience.
Villains Turn the Dream Into a Nightmare
Suddenly, Mickey’s dream takes a darker turn. Pulled into the Magic Mirror, he faces a lineup of Disney Villains conjured by the Evil Queen. The suspense builds until Maleficent herself transforms into a towering, 45-foot, fire-breathing dragon, setting the river ablaze.
Mickey Saves the Day
Using only the power of his imagination, Mickey defeats the darkness and restores the dream. In a spectacular finale, fireworks burst over the river as the show ends with Mickey standing triumphantly.
A Must-See Disneyland Experience
With its live performers, high-energy choreography, enhanced special effects, and unforgettable Disney storytelling, Fantasmic is a must-see for any Disneyland visit. Whether you’ve seen it once or a dozen times, it never fails to amaze.
