Experience the grand finale of the Disney Music Festival every evening at Central Plaza with The Grand Finale Orchestra!
After a day full of music and joyful performances during the Disney Music Festival, gather at Central Plaza for a colorful ending. Mickey is the conductor, and all the musicians from the festival come together to close the day in style. From Vaiana’s / Moana Musicians to Minnie’s Marching Band, and from Goofy’s Imaginary Orchestra to Miguel’s mariachi band—all the music comes together in one big, joyful performance.
Although Disney promotes that all Disney Music Festival activations take part, Mary Poppins and the Pearly Band are not featured in this show.
The show takes place across four stages on Central Plaza, just like previous shows such as A Million Splashes of Colourand Dream… And Shine Brighter. However, this show focuses less on dancing and more on music.
The show begins when Goofy wakes the fountains in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle for his Imaginary Orchestra. Then, Minnie arrives from Main Street with her marching band to add extra sparkle to the music.
From Fantasyland, Donald and Daisy arrive with an accordion player for a fun Bella Notte sketch. Rapunzel and Flynn Rider also join in.
Frontierland is represented by Miguel and his mariachi friends, bringing the sound of Latin-American rhythms to Central Plaza with Un Poco Loco from the Disney•Pixar film Coco.
Vaiana arrives with the popular song How Far I’ll Go, which ends in a mash-up with When Will My Life Begin performed with Rapunzel. Also from Adventureland, Timon and his Matadance crew perform an energetic version of the Matadance song Suddenly, the show is interrupted by Stitch in an Elvis outfit, holding a guitar during the iconic song Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride.
Next, the spotlight is on the singers and musicians of the Disney Music Hits Concert, who perform a medley of recent Disney songs, including Nobody Like U (Turning Red), Try Everything (Zootopia), and This Wish (Disney’s Wish).
Of course, Mickey returns to invite everyone to sing along to the Disney Music Festival anthem Viva La Musique! The finale features spectacular daytime-fireworks, just like in The Jungle Book Jive and Dream… And Shine Brighter.
After the show, all performers walk through Main Street in a small parade. You’ll see:
- Stitch on his former Disney Stars ‘n’ Cars vehicle,
- Timon on a special tricycle,
- and the former Tree Lighting Ceremony / Dream… And Shine Brighter float, now reused for the Disney Music Hits Concert musicians and Chip & Dale.
- All other artists and Disney characters walk by foot.
The show lasts about 20–25 minutes and only takes place once a day. Check the Disneyland Paris app for the latest schedule. In case of bad weather conditions there will be a rainy day version.
