Disneyland is the official home of the Disneyland Disney100 anniversary of The Walt Disney Company! From limited edition merchandise to mesmerizing shows and Mickey-themed treats, let’s break down Disneyland's special events, food, shows, and more honoring Disney’s extraordinary 100 year legacy.
The two new nighttime spectaculars, “Wondrous Journeys,” a fireworks show inspired by Disney's century of storytelling, and “World of Color – One,” a water show featuring favorite movies in celebration of Disney's anniversary, debuted earlier this year. The “Magic Happens” parade also returned on February 24! Keep reading for more details on these shows.
Disneyland's MagicBand+ will interact with both the new “Wondrous Journeys” and “World of Color – One” shows (as well as select decorations throughout the parks later this year).
Disneyland's Disney100 celebration began on January 27, 2023, and will likely wrap up in mid 2024, leaving plenty of time for guests to enjoy the festivities. Be sure to plan a visit during this special year!

“Magic Happens” Parade
The Magic Happens Parade has finally returned! After a three year hiatus due to the pandemic, it is back in action now, highlighting beloved characters such as Moana, Miguel, Anna, Elsa, Olaf, Kristoff and Sven, along with several talented performers.
The Disney100 parade also features a contemporary musical score by Todrick Hall that presents a fun spin on Disney hits. Guests will experience an exciting grand finale that honors Disney's century of magic with moments from Disney classics!
Disney100 “World of Color – One”
This World of Color show, designed for the Disney100 celebration, revolves around the idea of how just a ripple can cause a wave—one that can fuel a world of change. The show takes us back through the most moving Disney moments over the last century, presenting us with stories that inspire us to grow and be our best selves.
In “World of Color–One,” projections illuminate up the water, featuring moments from some of Disney's most powerful films and shows: Star Wars, Moana, The Lion King, Avengers: Endgame, Encanto, and more. The magic is created by projections, fog effects, “dancing” fountains, and more! Disneyland's MagicBand+ will also come alive during the performance with haptic vibrations that synchronize with the action of the spectacular.
Classic and modern Disney characters make appearances, and moving scores powerfully underscore each scene. The score features 18 different musical compositions, including an original song, “Start a Wave,” composed by Cody Fry and with lead vocals by Loren Allred.
“World of Color–One,” is particularly special, as it is the first Disneyland spectacular to feature Walt Disney Animation Studios, Pixar Animation Studios, the Avengers, and Star Wars all in the same show!
“Wondrous Journeys”
“Wondrous Journeys” is the fireworks and projections show that celebrates Disney’s 100 years and brings the Sleeping Beauty Castle, Main Street, and night sky alive with bursts of color! Projections are tailored to each viewing area at the park (Main Street, U.S.A., Sleeping Beauty Castle, Rivers of America and the façade of “it’s a small world”), creating a unique experience per setting. Be sure to find your perfect fireworks watching spot and check out our other tips in our 2023 Fireworks at Disneyland guide!
The show includes references to all 62 Walt Disney Animation Studios films, featuring characters such as Bambi, Hercules, Mirabel, and more. It also features a flyby from Baymax from “Big Hero Six” and the Blue Fairy from “Pinocchio” over the castle!
The fireworks show includes an original song, “It’s Wondrous,” composed by Duddy Brown and Alex Geringas, and the recorded musical score was brought to life by an 80-piece orchestra, 16 vocalists, and a 33-voice choir. The MagicBand+ will put on its own colorful performance, lighting up and pulsing in synchronicity with the show above.
Disney Gallery: Disney100 Years of Wonder
In honor of the Disney100 Celebration, the Disney Gallery on Disneyland's Mainstreet is featuring a special exhibit—the biggest that has ever appeared at the gallery!
Disney 100 Years of Wonder explores the early days of Disney, showcases how Imagineers turn 2D concepts into 3D, and explores how Disney attractions have inspired films and vice versa. Here, you can explore models, concept artwork from attractions at the parks, and more, following their journey in turning from an idea to a reality.
Disney 100 Years of Wonder shows us that stories can transcend form and grow in ways that touch the lives of countless people.
New Disney100 Esplanade Background Music Loop
As you walk between Disneyland and Disney California adventure, you'll hear new music playing in celebration of Disney100! The playlist features a mix of Disney's 50th Anniversary tracks, Epcot music, and Disneyland classics.
Keep an ear out for Epcot's Test Track theme, the “Fantasmic!” finale, “Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow” from the Carousel of Progress, Disney California Adventure's “California Screamin,” and “Soarin' Over California,” “Nothing Can Stop Us Now” from Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway, and more!
