Nightly drone show makes debut at Disneyland Paris

A nightly drone show has made its debut at Disneyland Paris, kicking off the theme park’s new programme called Disney Symphony of Colours.

The Disney Electrical Sky Parade combines synchronised drones, video projections, lights and fountains across Sleeping Beauty Castle.

It has been designed as a tribute to the Main Street Electrical Parade, a night-time show that marked the history of Disneyland Paris when it was staged between 1992 and 2003.

More than 500 drones parade across the night sky in the form of illuminated floats, creating images such as Mickey Mouse, Elliott the dragon and Cinderella’s carriage.

It can be seen at the park until September 30.

Other elements of the Disney Symphony of Colours programme will get under way next month, from February 10.

A Million Splashes of Colour will be a daytime show celebrating animated films from Walt Disney Animation Studios and Pixar Animation Studios, with a host of characters and 30 dancers.

Performed several times a day until September 30, it will feature songs from favourite films.

Meanwhile, Main Street, U.S.A., will feature new colourful decorations called Blooming in Colours until May 5.

Elsewhere, the theme park will reopen its five-star Disneyland Hotel on January 25, and another new show will make its debut in spring: Alice & The Queen of Hearts: Back to Wonderland.
