Disneyland Paris Launches Disney Electrical Sky Parade with Drones, the First Experience of Disney Symphony of Colours
Hi everyone!
Disney Symphony of Colours kicked off yesterday at Disneyland Paris with the Disney Electrical Sky Parade, featuring more than 500 drones in a parade inspired by the Main Street Electrical Parade, which ran at Disneyland Paris from 1992 to 2003 (and earlier in the United States for those who visited Walt Disney World in the 1970s and 1980s). I am sure we will see many more awards coming this year for the resort!
Disneyland Paris shares more information below about the Disney Electrical Sky Parade and more that is coming not only for Disney Symphony of Colours, but for the resort in general. January is not over for new experiences, as the newly royally reimagined Disneyland Hotel reopens on January 25th, 2024! We are looking forward to being there for opening night.
Read below for all the details from Disneyland Paris.

This novelty is paying a dazzling tribute to the Main Street Electrical Parade, a nighttime spectacular that marked the history of Disneyland Paris when it was staged in Disneyland Park between 1992 and 2003. Disney Electrical Sky Parade gives nostalgic guests a chance to relive their childhood, and younger ones the opportunity to discover this iconic Disney Parks experience in a brand-new, never-seen-before format. More than 500 drones parade across the night sky in the form of illuminated floats, symbolizing the various icons of the Main Street Electrical Parade, including Mickey Mouse and his friends’ dazzling train, Elliott the adorable dragon and Cinderella’s carriage. The unforgettable electro-syntho-magnetic music, which has been remixed for the occasion, is once again setting the tempo for this spectacular festival of nighttime magic.
To develop Disney Electrical Sky Parade, the Disneyland Paris Entertainment teams have once again collaborated with Dronisos, official technology supplier of Disneyland Paris and European leader in drone shows based in France, United States and Middle East. This breathtaking new sequence is following in the footsteps of recent nighttime productions such as the award-winning and nominated shows*** Disney D-Light, Avengers: Power the Night and the incredible Bastille Day drone show performed on 14 July 2023.
*From January 8th until September 30th 2024
