Disney on Ice

For decades, Newcastle's Utilita Arena has played host to a widely regarded timeless spectacle that speaks to viewers of all ages – Disney On Ice. Born nearly 40 years ago, the production customarily transforms some (if not all) of the most beloved Disney tales into eyeball-fixating ice-skating renditions.

Classic princess adventures. Action-packed Pixar tales. Mind-boggling fairy narratives. The production makes sure to showcase the holistic spectrum of its animated screenplays. More often than not, each show is replete with displays of skillful choreography, stunning set design, and thrilling icy acrobatics. These elements have helped it captivate both children and adults alike.

As one of the longest-running and most patronized ice shows on the planet, it has now become a somewhat worshiped viewing tradition for families from across the globe. Its long-running popularity testifies to its ability to take audiences into the rather enchanting world of Disney, the one place where imaginations come to life on thick, skate-worthy ice.

At Utilita Arena, audiences are treated to the greatest films obtainable for the franchise’s archives. The iconic castles of Cinderella. The Sleeping Beauty tragicomedy. The whimsical landscapes of Frozen, as well as those of Toy Story. Every set, curtain, and stage play is more or less a magical adventure spiced with professional acting and direction.

For over two decades, Disney On Ice has brought smiles to faces and created lasting memories, especially for generations of families. Over these several years, it has transmogrified into a celebration of sorts, one that honors imagination, creativity, and the timeless appeal of Disney's storytelling. Being set against the backdrop of ice skating makes it even more interesting.

History of Disney on Ice

The show made its international debut in Japan in 1987, hitting things off with Happy Birthday Donald. Then, it was rebranded as Disney On Ice in 1998. In Newcastle, the show premiered in 1999 at what was then referred to as the Telewest Arena.

Each following year brought a new method of delivery for the show. It introduced fresh characters and stories to up the ante and keep audiences spellbound. Case in point, in 2001, Toy Story inspired a show that was specially choreographed by Robin Cousins, alongside favorites the likes of Buzz and Woody.

In 2003, it marked Walt Disney's legacy with 100 Years of Magic. The celebration put on show more than 60 characters and nostalgia-eliciting scenes from classics such as Mulan and A Bug’s Life. Other editions honored films like The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, and Disney Princesses. Worlds of Fantasy, in 2011, journeyed through magical, from Cars to Tinker Bell's Pixie Hollow.

In 2016, Frozen became a standout hit. The Oscar winner prompted extra performances due to overwhelming demand. However, Disney on Ice faced a setback in 2020 with cancellations due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But in December 2021, it returned with a new show highlighting heroism. Mickey, Minnie, and friends took audiences on a discovery adventure, showing what it truly means to be a Disney Kingdom hero.
