Remember... Dreams Come True was a Disneyland fireworks display commemorating the 50th anniversary of the park in 2005 and 2006.^[1]^[2] The show featured fireworks, lower level pyrotechnics, isobar flame effects, projection mapping, lasers, searchlights, and lighting set to the soundtracks of some of Disneyland's rides and shows.

The show was produced by Walt Disney Creative Entertainment.

The show ran until November 2, 2014, when it closed to make way for the integration of a new fireworks system, and for Disneyland's Diamond Celebration, which included the return of Fantasy in the Sky and the new Disneyland Forever fireworks. The show returned on February 3, 2017, and ran until April 7, 2018, when it was relaunched to accommodate Pixar Fest and its Together Forever fireworks. The show reopened again on September 7, 2018, featuring the searchlights and projection technology developed for Disneyland Forever.^[3]^[4] Mickey's Mix Magic replaced it and opened at Disneyland on January 18, 2019.^[5]^[6] The show, though never officially renamed, is part of Disneyland's Potential Fireworks Library, alongside titles like "Disneyland Forever" and "Together Forever: A Pixar Nighttime Spectacular". "Remember...Dreams Come True" remains unique as the sole fireworks display in any Disney Park celebrating theme park attractions rather than film properties.

Conclusion

Julie Andrews concludes by declaring Disneyland the "Happiest Place on Earth". Tinker Bell reappears, flying over the castle to the tunes of "Wishes" and "When You Wish Upon A Star". The show concludes with a dazzling fireworks display as Andrews reminds, "Remember...Dreams Come True!"

Revisions

At the conclusion of the show, "Remember When", written by Richard Marx and performed by LeAnn Rimes, is played throughout the park. This song was the official song of the Happiest Homecoming on Earth, celebrating the 50th anniversary of Disneyland and Disney Parks worldwide.

Later during the second season of running the fireworks show, a second song, Wishes!, performed by Peabo Bryson and Kimberley Locke (from the album Disney Wishes!) was added to play after "Remember When". After both songs, the lands' normal area loop music returns.

Although "Remember When" and "Wishes!" are the exit music of this show, this portion was occasionally altered due to special occasions:

Prior to the introduction of Disney's Celebrate America in 2008, there was a special Independence Day fireworks finale every July 4, namely A Salute to America's Golden Dreams, replacing two exit music(s) in their regular version. This theme song was borrowed from Epcot's The American Adventure and Disneyland's Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln attractions. This special show used a combination of former Believe and Remember... pyro equipment.
For the 2005 holiday season, "Remember When" was replaced with the "White Christmas" segment of Believe... In Holiday Magic, complete with magical snowfall. This version of the "White Christmas" segment contained a short introduction by Julie Andrews.

In acknowledgment that Disneyland became more than 50 years old, later showings changed Julie Andrews' narration from "Fifty years ago" to "in 1955". "Fifty years later" was also dubbed over with the word "today".

Additional information

This fireworks show was also used during the 2006 and 2007 Grad Nite programs. The show itself remained almost unchanged except for the soundtrack being replaced with one consisting primarily of contemporary music (different each year) and projection to match it. The show was renamed to Grad Nite Explosion for these events and ran for 10 minutes at 1:00am and 3:00am. Video screens along with additional lighting effects were also added on either side of the hub (already in place as part of Club KIIS).

The entire soundtrack to the show can be found on A Musical History of Disneyland and The Official Album of the Disneyland Resort. The soundtrack reappeared on the Official Album for the Year of a Million Dreams with new narration to coincide with the end of the 50th Anniversary. The score was arranged by Greg Smith.

The music used during the opening and finale of Remember... Dreams Come True originated from Wishes: A Magical Gathering of Disney Dreams at the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World in Florida, which is performed by Charity Farris.
