The final performance of award winning Disneyland Paris nighttime spectacular
Disney Dreams! will take place this
Friday, 24th March 2017, ahead of its replacement by the new
Disney Illuminations show.
In a change to the advertised programme, however, the last
Disney Dreams! will begin at
8.00pm on the dot — not “at park closing time” (8.30pm) as
published in the current show times guide.
This doesn’t affect the performances today (Wednesday 22nd March) or tomorrow, which will go ahead at 8.30pm.
Disney Illuminations will officially launch on Sunday, 26th March, but a preview performance is scheduled for Saturday as part of a weekend of press events.
The demise of Disney Dreams! one day earlier suggests this performance
may also be open to general visitors, or else
Disneyland Park will be without a nighttime spectacular for one night.
The coming days will therefore see the unique situation of guests being able to enjoy three different nighttime spectacular shows across the resort’s two theme parks, including the epic
Star Wars: A Galactic Celebration presented on
The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at
Walt Disney Studios Park.
Introduced for the
20th Anniversary celebrations in 2012, Disney Dreams! brought about a full-scale revolution in the Disneyland Paris visitor experience.
Providing a 365-day, year-round “kiss goodnight”, with longer park opening hours for much of the year, it has earned some of the highest guest satisfaction scores in Disney park history and become a signature attraction of the whole resort.
The show was
updated in 2013, replacing
Mary Poppins and
The Jungle Book scenes with
The Lion King and
Brave. A further update for
Frozen Summer Fun in 2015 saw
Brave replaced temporarily by
Frozen‘s “Let It Go”.
A seasonal
Disney Dreams of Christmas! edition was introduced from November 2013 but, without the all-important
Peter Pan story arc, failed to capture the hearts of most visitors and fans in the same way.
