Beloved Disney characters, stunning costumes, breathtaking choreograph and dazzling special effects ensure an unforgettable experience for everyone as the talented cast of world-class skaters dazzle with their exceptional skills and grace, executing breathtaking jumps, spins, and lifts.

Many of the cast, including Calgary born Shay Jackson, have been skating since they were two years old, driven by a passion to “inspire children” and “put a big smile on everyone’s faces”.

Stars like Shay rehearse for more than 550 hours to perfect each performance and encapsulate the characters, while a team of choreographers and set and costume designers create approximately 181 props and 250 different costumes.

These take thousands of yards of fabric to make, and alongside the magical set for Disney On Ice presents 100 Years of Wonder, everything is all transported in 19 trucks from city to city, taking approximately 10 hours to set up.

Whether you're a devoted Disney fan or a newcomer to the magical world of Disney, this is an event not to be missed.

Immerse yourself in the wonder, excitement, and nostalgia as Disney On Ice commemorates a century of imagination, joy, and storytelling.
