Disney 'Dreams That Soar' drone show lights up sky with Star Wars, Marvel and more sci-fi favorites

Baymax (Big Hero 6) from the Disney Dreams That Soar drone show.

Walt Disney World and Disneyland have been dazzling guests for decades with their nighttime spectaculars. Incorporating everything from elaborate fireworks displays and inspired water projections to stunning pyrotechnics and the half-million-plus LED lights that brought the fan-favorite Main Street Electrical Parade to sparkling life, these evening events have consistently provided a perfect way for patrons to cap off a busy day at the parks.

With its new Dreams That Soar show — performed nightly through Sept. 2 at Orlando's Disney Springs shopping and dining district — the company is continuing this tradition, but ratcheting it up with a fresh technological twist. More specifically, the limited-time evening event is leveraging 800 drones to retell some of Disney's most iconic tales. But as the production's title cleverly suggests, its content is solely focused on flight, including nods to popular franchises and characters that are associated with their ability to take to the skies.
