Tokyo Disney Resort 35th Anniversary: Happiest Celebration
- Thread starter mickeyfan5534

Cool the heat????
Plus the summer night shows the 25th year and a few years after.
Ah, thank you. Forgot abut those.
Granted those were on the stage and the castle, nothing to the level Celebrate is getting. But they were fan favorites until stage shows were stopped in favor of OUAT.
Was it ever explained why they couldn't do the shows in addition to OUAT? Could they not build a stage like they did with DisneySea's stages that can sink into the ground?
"Celebrate!Tokyo Disneyland" will continue until 2020!

Celebrate is indeed TDL's Remember - it celebrates the park itself and not so much Disney movies. It's a Davison production, so it will be fantastic. Anything re: WDW is pure speculation.

So, slightly unpopular opinion alert. After letting Dreaming Up! sit with me for a bit, it ranks just below Festival of Fantasy for me (So at #3, since HiH is #1 and FoF is #2 for me) due to a couple of key things. The float has some incredible floats, but the rest are resoundingly mediocre. The Great Floats being Airship, Alice, Princess, Belle, and Poppins/Pan, while the less than ideal are all of the broom floats, Pinnochio, Pooh, and BH6. For me, I like everything being kept to a high standard, which is exactly what FoF and HiH did. While DU has the brooms and Soundsational has the drums, FoF and HiH have no such crutch and stick to a similar aesthetic.
But, above all, my biggest pet peeve was the lack of a finale. I love a cavalcade of characters as much as the next guy, but the Pinnochio Unit should have been scrapped in favor of a two piece finale. I would have even been okay with them reusing the finale HiH floats, but alas.

The broom floats are meant to accomplish what the carousel horses did in Happiness is Here; introduce each section of the parade.
I actually like the brooms more than the carousel horses.

About that, There is however a Pre-release for the soundtrack inside the resort days after the show premiered. Its not leaked its just Sold earlier than other media outlets, But some soundtracks are available on iTunes, Apple Music and Spotify. I dont know if its a japan store exclusive but I think you can see some soundtracks. Like Minnies tropical splash, TDS15th, BBB, Minnie Oh Minnie ETC..
But its still registered as a regular night time show. maybe it will be an anniversary exclusive show. They’ve put a ton of money in this show. i don’t think they want to waste that muh money, but then again Celebrate! we will get a new nighttime spectacular.

Might we end up with a seasonal rotation? Something new next Spring, Celebrate! in the summer, something new for Halloween, and Gifts of Christmas?
I'm thinking Donald is the Aladdin unit. As for the finale, I'm thinking TDL planned for Pan/Wendy and the character flood behind it, to be the finale. If you think about it, Pan/Wendy flying by wires takes the effect to another level above Mary and Tink in PTN using a lift crane. Plus I don't think TDL ever had a character flood in a regular parade before, so that's new for them.

So I was at Tokyo Sea on 4/16 and TDL on 4/18. They had It's a small world on Fastpass because of the changes. The family loved the new characters. They pretty much had characters from every animated movie property (non pixar). We also enjoyed the Parade and Water show at both parks. One funny thing was, it was raining pretty hard on 4/18. My wife and I thought that would translate into lower local crowds showing up and mostly tourists at the park. It was completely opposite, the park was packed with locals (the small world line was consistently 40 min). Barely any tourists showed lol.

Still not sure who the singer is. But! I found out the writers/producers of "Dream Up", the main theme of the parade, thanks to the ASCAP repertory. Andy Dodd and Dewain Whitmore Jr., both of whom have a prior history with Disney music (but nothing pertaining to the Parks as far as I can tell).
