Imagine... A Fantasy in the Sky

Imagine... A Fantasy in the Sky was a fireworks show at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California that ran from late 2004 to mid 2005. It was a relatively small show intended to bridge the gap between two of Disneyland's most extravagant fireworks shows of all time: "Believe... There's Magic in the Stars" and "Remember... Dreams Come True".

"Imagine" was created by Disneyland's in-house entertainment department while Walt Disney Creative Entertainment was in the process of developing "Remember..." The show contained elements of "Fantasy in the Sky", Disneyland's fireworks show from 1958-2000, and "Believe", the show from 2000-2004.

"Imagine" also was the first Disneyland fireworks show to employ pneumatic launch technology. This technology uses compressed air instead of gunpowder to launch shells into the air, thus resulting in reduced pyrotechnic fallout into the park and surrounding residential neighborhoods.

The show

The show opens with "The Second Star to the Right", and then a woman says

"Since the beginning time the stars have inspired us to wonder, and to open our hearts to the beauty of the sparkles in your imagination, for imagination is a small world, and remind us that dreams come true, so case in the sparkling stars to that magical place, that only you could imagine"

Then the song "When You Imagine" and "When you Wish upon A Star" plays and a woman says:

"Dreams can come true, and when you share them ... imagine the possibilities"Then the following songs are performed:
* Someday My Prince Will Come
* So This Is Love
* Once Upon A Dream
* Chim Chim Cher-ee
* Part Of Your World
* Beauty And The Beast
* Just Around The Riverbend
* The Circle Of Life
* A Whole New World

At the end, "Share a Dream Come True" plays and Tinkerbell flies over Sleeping Beauty Castle.
