In this early concept, we can see characters like Simba and Mufasa from The Lion King (1994), Mulan, Moana, Mirabel from Encanto (2021), Miguel from Coco (2017), and Joe Gardner from Pixar’s Soul (2020), but surely the show will include so many more with Disney’s characteristic charm and emotional storytelling, that will give Guests a performance that will leave them misty-eyed.
And over at Disneyland Park, the new fireworks show “Wondrous Journeys” will ignite the wonder in every Guest visiting Walt Disney’s original Park, and showcase a century of creativity, as the show features nods to all 60 Walt Disney Animation Studios films to date, taking viewers on a journey filled with artistry, music, storytelling and heart, with an emotional new song called “It’s Wondrous.”
