Disney on Ice presents Mickey & Friends is snow much fun! The high-action ice skating show combines the magic of Disney storytelling with athletic mastery and beautiful choreography.
Thank you to Feld Entertainment for hosting this blog post. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
We’ve been fortunate to have Disney on Ice come to our area numerous times, and so thrilled to have been able to make it a family tradition. With new shows meaning new stories and character line-ups, each visit is just as magical as the first.
Although she’s almost 13, my tween still loves going to the show. It’s definitely a family friendly activity, with throngs of preschoolers and parents mixed with Disney fans of all ages. The inclusion of aerial performers, high theatrics, and nostalgia makes it so special.
We arrived about 30 minutes before the show started, and if you know me, you know that being late is the biggest anxiety-inducer in my life. I would recommend giving yourself an hour to park, get into the venue, buy snacks, and find your seat (check out the FAQ’s below for more tips).
The show runs about an hour and forty-five minutes, with an intermission about the one-hour mark. It’s engaging and will keep guests singing and dancing the whole time. I loved watching the families sitting on the ice level with their kids twirling and dancing. If you’ve got a mover & shaker in the family, I’d make sure to get seats with a little wiggle room.
One thing that was really special about this Disney on Ice show was how interactive it was! Definitely makes it an energetic experience.
