Something spectacular is lighting up the skies over Disneyland once again — and trust us, you’re going to want the best seat in the house.
Disneyland is ready for its 70th!
As part of Disneyland’s 70th Anniversary Celebration, one of the resort’s most beloved nighttime spectaculars is making a triumphant return, and we couldn’t be happier! Here’s all you need to know.
Wondrous Journeys is officially back for Disneyland Resort’s 70th Anniversary Celebration!
If you missed it during its limited original run, or you’re just ready to feel all the feelings again, now’s the perfect time to plan your visit. This firework-filled tribute to Disney animation lights up the skies and our hearts once more, and we couldn’t be more excited to see it be part of the 70th festivities.
Let Wondrous Journey begin!
Wondrous Journeys is a jaw-dropping nighttime show that celebrates 100+ years of Disney animation. From early classics like Snow White and Pinocchio to modern favorites like Encanto and Wish, the show is a love letter to the artists, characters, and stories that built the Disney legacy.
Encanto!
Wondrous Journeys is more than just a fireworks show. It’s a stunning display of animation, heart, and Disney magic. Watch as the world around you transforms through state-of-the-art projections, turning familiar locations like Sleeping Beauty Castle and Main Street, U.S.A., into colorful, animated worlds.
I am on my way, I can go the distance!
The show features moments from some of Disney’s most beloved films, including:
- Hercules
- The Princess and the Frog
- Peter Pan
- Frozen
- Big Hero 6
- Moana
- Encanto
And more!
This show is STUNNING!
In one of the most magical moments of the show, the Blue Fairy from Pinocchio makes a grand appearance in the sky, granting a wish that sends you soaring through the world of Disney animation.
Get ready to feel emotional!
And as if that weren’t enough to leave you in awe, Baymax from Big Hero 6 takes to the skies, soaring high above Sleeping Beauty Castle in a heart-pounding moment that will have you cheering.
Look at Baymax!
It’s a breathtaking tribute to the magic and wonder of 70 years at The Happiest Place on Earth — and the perfect grand finale to a day full of celebrating!
We were speechless!

We do this because it’s important to us as journalists to ensure not only that we give you unbiased opinions, but also that you can trust us to do so since we’re paying our own way. On rare occasions, when we are invited by a company to attend a preview as media, and when we choose to accept that invitation, we will always make you, our readers, aware of that situation. Today, we were invited by Disneyland to attend their 70th Anniversary Celebration.
