Show Facts

• Disney's Fantillusion has 12 floats, 400 000 light bulbs and 60 km of cabling.

• Everynight, up to 50 performers take part for this magical parade. So do, approximately, 20 Guest Flows and more than 25 guest controls.

• One show can use over 600 litres of dry ice for the “show modes” and 9 tonnes of batteries are used every evening... recharged for the next day.

• Computers onboard each float control the lighting display, effects and music. The only thing that is sent to the units is a signal to keep the music in time with the underliner (background track) played in the park.

• Each float has its own orchestration and variation on the main theme, with music from the appropriate film telling the story along with character voices.
