It’s the imagination factory that has been entertaining the young and the young at heart for almost a century.
And as The Walt Disney Company gears up to celebrate 100 years this year, some of its most beloved characters will be taking to the ice for a jaw-dropping Newcastle celebration.
From the unabashed joy of Mickey and Minnie Mouse, to the intergalactic adventures of Buzz Lightyear and the epic tale of Elsa and Anna, to the magical worlds of The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin and more, Disney is a wonder we all grew up with.
This wonder will be celebrated this July when Disney on Ice presents 100 Years of Wonder comes to the Newcastle Entertainment Centre for nine wonder-filled shows.
This jaw-dropping extravaganza is an adventure for the whole family, filled with world-class skating, high-flying acrobatics, unexpected stunts, and wow-moments both on the ice and in the air, courtesy of some of the world’s most beloved characters, and some of the most advanced ice-skating technology yet!
Mickey Mouse and pals start the party, with Captain Hook’s treasure map taking them through Tinker Bell’s immersive, fantastic worlds.
Audiences will laugh as hilarious pirates flip, tumble, and twist on tumble tracks and stilts as they show off for Captain Hook.
Then, the colourful spirit realm of Disney/Pixar’s Coco is explored before Moana sails across the ice as she bravely saves her island from the fiery wrath of Te Ka,
Belle is seen in the sky as the enchanted chandelier comes to life, and of course the entire crowd will sing-along with Elsa in the icy world of Frozen.
When Buzz Lightyear, Woody and Jessie recruit the Green Army Men for a daring rescue in Andy’s room, the power of teamwork is everything!
Disney on Ice presents 100 Years of Wonder is on at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre from Thursday 20 to Sunday 23 July. Tickets are on sale now. Head here for more information.
