Remember...Dreams Come True

In terms of using fireworks for narrative storytelling, Remember… may be the greatest fireworks production ever performed, outdoing Epcot's IllumiNations. The show is a celebration of Disneyland's 50 year history, using fireworks, lasers, and advanced light projecting technology to pay tribute to park attractions past and present. Unofrtunately, the show experience is somewhat compromised unless you are in the Central Plaza in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle and people camp out for hours to get one of the best spots.

Time Commitment Information - Hide Section
  • Wait Times: Secondary viewing locations (Main Street Station, Rivers of America, Small World Mall) will provide decent viewing right up until the time the show starts. However, to get one of the ideal locations right in front of the castle will require staking out a spot more than two hours in advance on the busier days.

Access Information - Hide Section
  • Health Restriction:
  • Ride Access: There is no dedicated wheelchair viewing area for the fireworks show.

In front of the castle viewers have to stand and will block the views of those in wheelchairs and ECVs.
  • Wheelchair Transfer:

Parenting Information - Hide Section
  • Height Restriction: No
  • Child Swap: No
  • Other Issues: If your child is sensitive to loud noises but still wants to see the fireworks, viewing from Main Street Station or New Orleans Square along Rivers of America will provide the most distance form the loud noises. Small World Mall and right in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle are both very close to explosions.
History and Trivia - Hide Section
  • At this location: Fireworks have been a constant feature of the summer nighttime sky at Disneyland since nearly the beginning of the park. Fantasy in the Sky was the standard very long running fireworks show lasting from 1958 until 2000. Since then several new shows have been designed taking advantage of modern pyrotechnics and new lighting technologies.
