On July 14, Disneyland Paris held a special nighttime spectacular as part of its celebrations for Bastille Day, a French national holiday. During this show, the park set a new Guinness World Records title for putting on “the Largest aerial display of a fictional character formed by multirotors/drones.” During the show, there were 1,571 drones that formed a massive tricolor Mickey Mouse head over the castle.

The special nighttime spectacular was a 12-minute show that highlighted iconic Disney stories inspired by France. It included symbols of French culture like the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame Cathedral as well as scenes from Disney and Pixar films like “Beauty and the Beast,” “The Hunchback of Notre Dame,” “Sleeping Beauty,” “The Aristocats,” and “Ratatouille.”
