  • Excellent video I remember watching this w my family when we went to Disneyland..best firework show ever! Btw are u gonna make any new videos for like Star Tours 3D or the new attractions at California Adventures..I'd love to see more Disneyland videos from u(:

  • I took my kids twice when this was still the fireworks show. It was the absolute best. They were both too young to remember the show now, but I remember the awe on their faces at seeing the fireworks in the sky and when Tinkerbell came out, I thought my older daughter would jump out of her skin she was so excited. This is true Disney at its best! Thanks for posting this.

  • Disneyland.. such a beautiful place where childhood memories are. And no matter how old you are, once you enter there. You feel young again!

    This is the best Firework Spectacular! I loved and was lucky to be at the 50th! So many great memories!

  • what is the theme at the beginning, when the little boy sings

  • 8 people confused the dislike button with disliking that this fireworks show isn't shown anymore.

  • they should bring this firework show back

  • 8 people don't have hearts lol

  • Comment removed

  • it all started with a mouse.....

  • I attended Disneyland for the reopening on May 5, 2005. Remember... Dreams Come True was the most amazing firework show ever and still is. I saw Magical: Disney's New Nighttime Spectacular of Magical Celebrations and it was nothing compared to this one here. World of Color and Remember... Dreams Come True are on the same pedistal. Both are awesome shows. 

  • watching this was the perfect ending to our disneyland trip. it pretty much summed everything up nicely :)

  • i love disneyland......iam 35 years old and been going there since i was 1 years old

  • RU -- please don't ever take this off of your page. He, he. Yes, it is now 4-5 years old, but even to this day, I feel this is STILL one of the BEST that DLR ever did. ;) I still "refer" to it as an "old school" offerings from TA, and you captured it so brilliantly.:) He, he. Btw, this is the 'old' GL from YT and VF.

  • 27 and this still touches my heart.

  • When i saw it, tinkerbell through across the air. I screamed. LOUD.

  • I remember sitting up at Main Street Station just waiting, the moment I heard Julie Andrews' voice I burst into tears and wept through the entire thing. 19 years old and my fist visit to the USA and Disneyland. I still think it's the most beautiful fireworks show I have ever seen.. watching it here I still tear up- Thanks for posting, this is brilliant!

  • Does anyone know what the next disneyland theme wil be? like from 2006-2008 it was year of a million dreams, from 2009-? it was celebrate..... does anyone know when and what the next theme will be? has anyone heard anything? thank you so much!

  • @tamisweetie "Let The Memories Begin" is the new campaign. 

  • My favorite part is the fire... and then the very end, those super loud firecrackers.

  • Suprizeing they didn't burn down that castle yet. =) LOL

  • I was legit crying, this show is jawdropping amazement right here!! i havent seen this show in forever :D

  • Was there last night and i am happy to say that Disney brought back the show. One of the best firework shows that i have seen dinsey do.

  • amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing and thats saying littile about it

  • One of the BEST Disney "shows" ever produced (and SO ASTUTELY documented/edited by Ru42!). Would be nice to see similar again. :)

  • Thanks for posting! I never got a chance to see this during my time there. The whole thing just brings back great memories of my childhood. Thanks again for posting this video!

  • GREAT VIDEO I WATCH IT ALL THE TIME

  • The best fireworks show ever!

    I cried every time I saw this ^-^

    God;; i want them to bring this

    show back :D

  • Me to (:

  • The brought the show back for Disneylands 55th Anniversary. I was there for my B-Day and they had this show instead of Magical so I think they are keeping it the whole year of 2010

  • I remember watching this show in disneyland during christmas then it started to fake snow it was really cool

  • This is perhaps the most beautiful and moving show they have ever done, I remeber crying tears of joy by the time it was finished. Thank You for Posting.

  • so true... same here absolutely!

  • As much as I liked Remember Dreams Come True, it was nice to finally get to see a new firework show this past weekend. I absolutely love Magical now. It has become my favorite show just because of it's finale. Remember Dreams ComeTrue focused on it's 50th anniversary and it was still going on until June. That's kind of long. I hope Magical can stay and hopefully Remember Dreams Come True will always live in our hearts as a great and wonderful show. Remember Dreams Come True I will miss you.

  • Well, I think it's supposed to come back this fall, and then Magical will be back next summer.

  • best Fireworks show YET!! Everything Is GREAT.... The Music, The Lights, Everything!! Even Better in person

  • Ah, you're the one who posted the nice Haunted Mansion video. . . you're the best!

  • Yeah compare that to the 52 - 75 million they make a day..... lol

  • it costs between 52 - 75 THOUSAND dollars per night for one show

  • i just remebered that they will have to change alot of the show for wdw

  • it has the beggining of wishes at wdw

  • We need this at Disney World fast.I rather have this or magical than wishes!

  • i agree

  • It is 8:30 on 6/3/09 (one hour until the "magic" fireworks are shot off) and i bet this will the last comment until the end of this era of fireworks. :(

  • i love it! thanks for posting it! when i went it got canceled cause of high winds! =[

  • it may not have been there, but when ever they are forced to cancel the fireworks, they blame it on winds at high altitudes. I am sorry to say but disney was dishonest to you.

  • It sounds like you used the same soundtrack as the "Opening Night" video.

    You can here the woman saying "It's behind the tree" in both videos

  • Nice

  • Thank you ru42 for posting this vid! This is the show that my children witnessed on their first visit to Disneyland...just a couple of days prior to your posting! It made me cry then & your video achieves the same result! Many thanks!

  • UGHHHHH they can't get rid of this.... They might bring it back after the Magical show leaves... they better... this is my favorite show other than fantasmic....

  • You will have to remember this by watching these vids and from your own memories. Disney has stopped doing Remember and will change their fireworks show. I hear that it is mostly due to crowd issues. They should realize that the reason for the crowd was because it was AWESOME. I saw it three or four times and was looking forward to seeing it again in June. Then I found out it will be stopped by then:( Thanks for the post so I can REMEMBER it.

  • I heard that it is temporarily replaced until next fall. It is scheduled to re-open.

  • Remember is still going on. It will stop pretty soon, but it's still going now. I believe Magical comes on the 12th, so the last day of Remember will likely be the 11th, until late August.

    I'm sure Magical will be great, so don't worry if you don't make it to see Remember. It's sort of like Celebrate replacing PoD. Sad, since PoD was so good, but Celebrate is a ton of fun.

  • I love how they include all the rides in the show my favorite parts are The Haunted Mansion and the whole Star Tours/Star Wars part!!!!!!!!!.

  • I love Disneyland and watching this make me cry. I hope Disney continues the good work.

  • 'This was even more beautiful and touching in person. I cry just watching the video. Disney really has captured my heart

  • i had a chance of going here and i decided not too. i regret not going. i'll go some other time

  • Just got back from Disney Land! This was what was shown yesterday. It was amazing because the last time I was at Disney Land was twelve years ago!

    Such an amazing change with the new park next door and new rides as well as modifications to the originals. With that said, 10 of 10 park for me.

  • lol u uploaded this on my birthday july 9

  • i agree it is the best firework show. Awesome vid. all your vids are really cool

  • haha ive seen it a million.. no a zillion times! lol

  • Wow! What beautiful music!

  • It's interesting and possibly sad how right after the Inner Space guy asks, "Can I possibly survive?" they play audio from Star Tours, which replaced Adventure Through Inner Space.

  • :O How did they get Tinker Bell to fly like that?

  • a wire. uh, i mean...magic :)

  • magic.. psh a wire duh!

  • I knew that, I was just surprised that it wasn't visible.

  • this is BY FAR the best fireworks show disneyland has seen! i love how they incorporate the different rides and characters throughout disney's history, along with walt disney's speech. i love disneyland!!

  • I gotta say, I LOVE this show!! Its soo perfect because it pays tribute to attractions past and present. It is an amazing show! =D

  • Words can't possibly describe the genius of Disney....

  • That is very true - - RU

  • Even though now the company and channel is totally messed up, I mean this gives me chills when I watch it, but will Hannah Montana give people chills in 50 years? I don't think so!

  • me nither.....HANNAH SUCKS!!!!

  • @jacknphntmgrl I agree!!!! Glad Steve came up with a show so special to celebrate Disneyland's Golden Anniversary!!!!

  • it actually is ,first of all the best fireworks show out there and it is the happiest place on earth!!! :D

  • I love this show. Julie Andrews is the perfect narrator for this show! It makes me cry to watch this show. I cant wait to go back to my favorite park in the world! =D

  • I love DISNEYLAND!! I also get all teary eyed when I watch these. I'm going in November. I can't wait!!

  • Ru - I commented before about how I felt(even as an ex-CM) that THIS SHOW was one of the very BEST and highest examples of TRUE and can we say "old" Disney QUALITY (ever since I worked as CM - 25 years ago!).

    Do you know who produced this show and which TA Exec greenlighted it?

    Finally, do you know what is coming next? Will it be as good?

    Cheers and Thanks!

    P.s. Have always loved your work/editing, way back to VF!

  • Thank you for the compliments. Steve Davidson was the creator of this show. I am not sure who green lighted it. - - RU

  • Wasn't it Matt Ouimet?

  • Could of been. Good insight, Alex, since MO was so instrumental in the "recovery" of Disneyland (specifically for the 50th). Still the best editing/production I have seen, BTW ... thanks again, RU.

  • This is the best parsde good video Ru

  • i love disney land :"}

  • This is THE BEST fireworks show I've ever seen!! Great video RU!!

  • I way more better live I saw it last night and it was so cool I stated to cry at the end

  • nicely edited! this is disney at it's best!

    - rlcoolastic

  • i always tear up when i go watch this at disneyland...

    [[it brings back the child in me everytime.]]

    now i can watch it whenever.[:

    thank you for posting this up.

  • i feel like crying watching this because i wish i was there but ill be there next month in august

  • great video. I was wondering if you could tape fantasmic also!!!!

  • Look in my video gallery - it is there. Also of interest might be members*cox*net/ru42 (replace the * with .) - - RU

  • I love this show! It makes me cry. I had to watch it today since it is July 17! Happy 53rd Birthday Disneyland! Thanks ru42 for posting!

  • My husband and I just went last week and this was the first time I saw this in person. I've watched this on youtube before but it is just AMAZING in person!! :)

  • I love remember dreams come true. plus I know my boo and I will love it.when we go for a whole week spending quality time together at our favorite place.

  • This is the most breathtaking firework show that I have ever seen, and probably will ever see. I saw this in May 07 and I remember being so utterly amazed, I cried. This show made my day all the better. I remember feeling the heat from the fire and the lasers were a wonder. I returned to Disneyland in Nov 07 and missed the firework show and I regret it. I am going back to DL in June and this is one of the things on my "must-see" list. Thanks RU42, I find myself always watching your videos.

  • These are indeed the BEST fire works ever!!! I hope they keep them for a very long time

  • Awesome work on this video!!! this is the best Firework show in my vote!!!

  • Finally got the chance to see it just a couple of weeks ago, and this is really a show for those that love the park. LOVE that the Electrical Parade is "home" for that few minutes, it shows someone still remembers where it belongs. I agree with you that this is the best fireworks show they have produced.

  • best fireworks show EVER! i saw this when i was 10 and i loved it soooo much!! thanks for posting RU42, and great job filming!

  • I agree 100%

  • agreed! :)

  • who does those fireworks?

  • Nothing Can beat the true wonders of this firework show. If disneyworld is better it better have biger fire works and morerides in it

  • Disneyland is the original and will always be better no matter how much bigger disneyworld is.

    No comparison

    Disneyland wins by a long shot.

  • exactly! it's quality, not quantity

  • I totally agree!

  • @Sjsharks2011 Disneyland also lays claim to be the only park Walt Disney ever set foot in. Walt Disney World does not hold that honor. Walt Disney World was started by Walt, but he died before completion and was almost scraped due to his death.

  • This show will be in hiatus for rest of the 2007 year but don't worry it will be back in 2008 Believe ... in Holiday magic will be in for the season cant wait RU YOUR VIDS R THE BEST

  • This fireworks show made me cry when I was there. It just touches your heart exactly where your wishes are.

  • it made me cry 2

    it really does touches your heart!!

  • i cried like a freaking baby when i saw it for the first time too!! and i still cry!!

  • it makes me cry too! i thought i was the only one.

  • I always cry too. I thought I was the only one too.They are the best.

  • What an amazing show! RU42 thanks you for posting all your vids. They bring back so many memories. By the way is the Firework 50 year Spectacular still showing?

  • The show is mostly the same. Some of the 60th narrration has been changed and some of the projections have changed/been removed. - - RU

  • I miss Disney Land SO MUCH 8: ( Thgis vid SERIOUSLY almost made me cry...lol

  • I have some 100 Disney videos that I have created over the years and this one is still one of my absolute favorites (the other is Fantasmic.) I never get tired of watching them. - - RU

  • I know wwhen we will be going back. We will be going back on april 1st. funny thing is that we go there about 4 times a year...yet sometimes I still watch it.

  • four times a year? you every thought about a different holiday lol Its a great vid this^

    Is this Disney LA or Florida?

  • Disneyland In Anaheim, California

  • OMG! I don't know if i commented on this one already.. but this is... so.. MAGICAL! and the editing added more to it! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! Although i want to see it live, this is already enough for me! Thank you! It is my dream to get there... i've only been to HongKong Disneyland, but their fireworks is awesome too so I really can't compare this and the HK Disney's fireworks... they're both unique. Thanks again!

  • BTW, RU42, you SHOULD work for Disney, if you could tolerate their poor pay scale! "D'ooh!" Your direction and edits are much better than their own! Ha! Cheers!

  • Thank you again! (I saw your post under Electrical Parade) I went to go hit reply and accidentally hit remove. Sorry about that. A RU42 edit takes 4 to 12 complete recordings depending on the complexity of the ride/show. I think I did this one with 6. - - RU

  • RU42, I agree with you. This IS and was the BEST fireworks show Disney has EVER produced and your edit of it is SUPERB! I have enjoyed MANY of your videos on "many" sites! How long/how many edits does it take to get your finale product? Just wondering. Great, great, GREAT!

  • best fireworks I have ever seen.

  • keep makeing great videos i love disneyland

  • It's a great show. The one thing I don't like is that the beginniong is mostly a copy of "Wishes" at the MK. It just doesn't make sense how the show is about Dreams, but the song is about Wishes.

  • awe im so sad now.. i worked at disney in the stores in tomorrowland fantasyland and toontown, today was my last day.. the fireworks were always my fav part of the night..

  • Are you serious? I really want to work in Disneyland but I live too far from Aneheim.

  • what is the name of the very first song ? ["star light...starbright..first star i see tonight.."]

  • never mind, i mean who sang it ?

  • i used to work at disneyland as an outdoor vendor, so i would be the guy selling churros,popcorn,etc., and when i would work the ice cream cart in main st. i would get to watch this show, good job, miss it alot

  • RU DUUUDE i was on disneyland last week and OMG i recorded the video and seriously i love disneyland!!! ND I HOPE U BRING US MORE VIDS LIKE THESE ONES!! GOOD JOB! And thanks to the locations you gave to me cuz the video looks fantastic and now the dont throw the fireworks on the left they throw em from the right lol and i hope u love a video i made about beauty and the beast search it!! tags:"Be our Guest!"

  • awesome!!!

  • so this is a mix of wishes from walt disney world and ride quotes. nice combo. they need to bring this to wdw when it turns 50!

  • UM NO! Disneyland is much more significant than WDW it was the original Disney park and the only one that was fully built with him helping! Yes of course there will be a huge WDW 50th but it will NEVER beat Disneyland's!

  • RU - My kids and I seriously watch your videos every Sunday as a family. Keep posting them, we love your work. Amazing... From 1 die hard Disneyland fan to another!

  • Thank you so very much! Have you ever visited my site? - - RU

  • YES! Wait, visionsfantastic, or the cox dot net one?

  • Both!

  • I llllooovvveee this fireworks show!!! It is definatly the best show Disneyland has ever shown. I just love the way the fireworks and the music go together. And ru42, you did a great job filming. Good job!

  • man i never get tired of dis.. last time i went to see dis, someone was cryin cuz he felt so touched... lol

  • thank you so much and i hope to get a great view 4 record the show.. thank you u are so kind and thank you very much... u are so sweet!!

  • If you want you can own this video. Just visit my site

    members*cox*net/ru42

  • I think that this recording took you like 3 days to go to disneyland huh? lol im going to this July 17th and i hope i get a good recording like you tough...tell me where did you took the frame of the mickey mouse head? tell me to record that place!! please? thank you bye take care

  • Actaully, I think this video was created from 5 or 6 different locations. If you want the single best spot to shoot from it would be in the middle of the street, slightly (about 15') to the right of the center of the castle (as you were facing it.) In other words, lightly towards the Tomorrowland entrance direction.

  • PART 2 - If you can look through the Castle and see Fantasyland, you are too centered - move to the right some more until you cannot see through the Castle. This will place a majority of the fireworks directly over the Castle plus gives you a clear view to shoot around you as well. - -RU

  • It's the most magical show on the eath!

  • Hey there!!! thank you so much for posting this video!!!! i was just there 2 days ago... and this firework show just hits the spot!!! i makes me cry everytime haha.. it really makes you believe again! and i just wanted to say THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS!!!!!! i wish i could buy the soundtrack to the firework show...just listening to it makes me weepy haha but once again thank you!!!

    Shawn

  • Such a great video. The multiple angles are magical - thanks for all your filming and editing efforts. I watch this about once a month and it never gets old.

  • Thanks very much! As a reminder to people; you can own my videos in true DVD quality. Just follow the link in my profile! - - RU

  • Wow this video is so awesome. It brings back so many childhood memories. Thank you so much for uploading it. I must have watched it about 15 times already. It makes me cry everytime. I guess you can only really be touched by it when you've been there. I have been to this park 6 times and I'm off to Disneyland Paris in 4 weeks for the 8th time! Thanks for bringing me a little bit of the magic at home. Oh and please keep making videos. Amy x

  • Amy - thank you very much for your comments. I feel the same way! - - RU

  • This isn't the video where those annoying as hwll pasholders ruin it for everyone, is it? :/

  • this is honestly the most beautiful thing i've ever seen.

  • truly great thank you

  • These fireworks have a special place in my heart. This was a big deal after my sister passed away. my whole family minus dad and mom where there, and no one could keep a dry eye! This is Amazing how they coordinate the music, fireworks and the colored lights on the castle!

  • l2tripod newb

  • Yes its called "Remember When" by Leeann Rimes.

  • hi , can you remember the song that used for final show when the people exit for the park?

  • Fantastic work!

    This is a fix for us disneyfans

  • omg i was watching another

    video of this

    and in that video a girl yelled cut the tree!

    and did in your video tooo..

    was this the opening night of the show?

    cuzz, the other one said it was.

    FREEAKKY.

  • That is so awesome. Much better than Wishes. I love the HM part. Thanks for posting!

  • in your opinion which is the best spot to watch it?

  • Best spot is right in front of the Castle area; I like in the middle of the street (if you get too close to the Castle you miss some stuff.) I don't get dead center of the Castle, I go slightly toward the right (towards Tomorrowland.) That position seems to center the fireworks over the Castle better. - - RU

  • in which exact place where u ?? im going to disneyland in 2 days and i want this view of the fireworks its awesome

  • damnit, when i went there 2 weeks ago and they didn't have fireworks! FYI, they only have fireworks on Friday and weekends!! and I went on Monday!!! I flyed all the way there from the east coast!
