Disneyland Resort is set to bring back one of its most beloved nighttime shows, “Fantasmic!” This long-running spectacular will return on May 24th with some notable updates, including new special effects and a reimagined battle scene.
In anticipation of its return, Disneyland has released new images of “Fantasmic!”, which has been on hiatus since the Maleficent dragon caught fire over a year ago. When it resumes, the show will not include the fire-breathing dragon. Here’s what guests can expect from the refreshed performance.
New Special Effects and Battle Scene
“Fantasmic!” has always been known for its impressive visuals and engaging storyline. In this updated version, Sorcerer Mickey faces off against Maleficent in a newly envisioned battle. Maleficent will don her dark gown and wield a powerful scepter, ascending to a height of 35 feet as she appears to ignite Rivers of America in flames. This dramatic enhancement aims to elevate the viewing experience for audiences.
Return of the Iconic ‘Peter Pan’ Scene
Fans of the classic “Peter Pan” scene will be pleased to know it returns with added elements. The Lost Boys join Peter Pan and Wendy as they engage in a battle against Captain Hook on his pirate ship. This addition is expected to bring more excitement and depth to an already captivating segment of the show.
Viewing Information and Dining Packages
The show will be presented twice nightly. Guests are advised to check the Disneyland app or Disneyland.com for the latest showtimes. Viewing is on a first-come, first-served basis, with entry to the viewing area via Frontierland. For those looking to secure a reserved spot, dining packages are available at Blue Bayou Restaurant, River Belle Terrace, and Rancho del Zocalo Restaurante.
Conclusion
The return of “Fantasmic!” at Disneyland Resort promises to be an event not to be missed. With enhanced special effects and fresh elements added to beloved scenes, guests can look forward to an exciting and immersive experience.
