I visited the Sands Theatre at Marina Bay Sands with my family to experience the Immersive Disney Animation. If you've ever felt that reality and growing up has extinguished the spark in you, this is a chance to rekindle that spark and magical feeling. Celebrating 100 years of Disney animation excellence, the experience promises to transport visitors to the dynamic and enchanting worlds of many beloved Disney characters.
Presented by Base Entertainment Asia in collaboration with Walt Disney Animation Studio, the opening show on November 18, 2023 was a triple celebrations as Immersive Disney Animation marked its Southeast Asia premiere and the show also saw the premiere of Let It Go from Frozen. Not only that it was also Mickey Mouse's and Minnie Mouse's 95th Birthday.
The entire 90-minute experience is presented in three sections. Be sure to arrive early to take photos outside too. I dressed my girl up as a classic Snow White princess for this Disney experience.
The first section is Exhibit Area 1, where 62 movie posters from 100 years of Disney animation are displayed on the wall. We took lots of photos with the larger-than-life 3.6 meter tall Mickey Mouse and also with the statues of Elsa and Anna. We picked up the fall leaves on the floor and did a cute boomerang with them.
The next section is Exhibit Area 2 where visitors can delve deeper into the exhibition for a behind-the-scenes look at the technology and creativity that brings the sketches of Disney's legendary animators to life. We witnessed the evolution of our favourite Disney scenes, characters and songs. There are also drawing tables where visitors can learn the techniques used for sketching various Disney characters.
Finally, we entered the Show Gallery, a transformative 360-degree environment that immerses visitors in a captivating Disney narrative with scenes, characters and songs from Disney animated films of the past and present. There is also a responsive floor projection that synchronises with visitors' steps and our interactive wristbands that light up and change colours accordingly.
Here, it's a big free-seating area, adults can sit anywhere they like while the children are free to run, dance and jump around. Some moment of highlights includes how the Show Gallery transports visitors Under the sea, from scenes in The Little Mermaid, using shimmering bubbles. Another remarkable moment was when snow bubbles appears, unveiling the icy landscapes of Show Yourself from Frozen II. We also sang our hearts out to many Disney songs, with Let it go from Frozen being the loudest.
The Immersive Disney Animation exhibition also includes sensory-friendly sessions in the Show Gallery that will be specifically adapted for individuals with sensory sensitivities. These sessions will be presented at reduced volume levels, with adjusted lighting and designated quiet spaces.
