Guests at Disneyland After Dark: Pride Nite are treated to a special “Welcome Fireworks” spectacular above the skies of Disneyland during the event. And if you weren’t lucky enough to snap up a ticket, don’t worry because you can experience the show from home!
Pride Nite “Welcome Fireworks”
You can watch the full show above courtesy of our YouTube channel, or keep scrolling for photos and descriptions.
The short six-minute fireworks spectacular kicks off with “When You Wish Upon a Star.”
We hear bits of Walt Disney’s speech welcoming all who come to this happy place.
The energy rises immediately with “Welcome” from “Brother Bear.”
We then move into “Better Together” from the “Descendants” franchise.
Next we move into a medley of Disney film songs, including a verse “How Far I’ll Go” from “Moana,” followed by a chorus of “Go the Distance” from “Hercules”
After, we hear “Show Yourself” from “Frozen II,” making its second appearance in a Disney nighttime spectacular after “Believe! Sea of Dreams” at Tokyo DisneySea.
A slow version of “Two Worlds” from “Tarzan” leads in the next segment before picking up tempo.
Nearing the end, a powerful rendition of “Reflection” from “Mulan” takes over the skies.
The grand finale of the show was a surprise hit from the Fox catalog — “This is Me” from “The Greatest Showman.”
