Mickey's PhilharMagic

[brookmey]

It's the only thing on my must-do list. I love how it brings so many of our favorite characters together. It brings out the sentimental, nostalgic side of me.

We pretty much let our kids decide what we do in the parks when we visit, but this is the only attraction that DH and I insist on seeing.

For our first two trips, this is the last thing we do before leaving the parks before going home, and when we go in August this summer, it will be the last thing we do before leaving the parks as well.

It just totally captures of all of Disney's magic into one experience.

This was the first attraction that we visited on my DH's first trip EVER to WDW, and he didn't know what quite to expect. He knew we were going to have fun, but after we walked out of this show he knew that our trip was going to be magic

When I am listening to my MP3 disc with all of the theme park attractions and area music and Philharmagic comes on, it is one of the attractions that make me long to be in Disney and I even get a little teary-eyed while listening to it.

We love Philharmagic! My favorite scene is "A Whole New World" from Aladdin--it really makes me feel like I'm flying. Breathtaking!

Agreed. The wind effect is very exhilarating.

This is my favorite 3D attraction as well! I had heard a lot about it before my first trip 2 years ago but when I actually experienced it I was blown away by how much it exceeded my expectations. Definitely a MUST DO for me!

Philharmagic is one of my favorite attractions. I had the pleasure of seeing it for the first time during a trip to Disney World with my band when I was 15. I came home and told my family how great it was, but they did not get it until we were all able to return 5 years later! Now it is a family favorite.

There is one thing that could be improved though. I think they should add some new scenes such as something from Tangled and the frog princess movie and then alternate the scenes kind of like they are doing with the new Star Tours. That way things would be even more interesting and you would see different scenes each time. That would also help the film from getting to long if they simply added those scenes…

We love Mickey's PhilarMagic. Absolutely a must do, and the short wait is always a bonus

Did the show ever go through a change? We felt like it was shortened on our trip in '09 from what we saw in '07. Not sure if it was just perception or not....

PhilharMagic sums up the magic of Disney. It is so much fun and sums up the magic of Disney. I absolutely love it!

 

[Always Dream]

I agree - it's one of my favourites and I really missed it while I was at Disneyland last year.

My husband (who hates all shows) and ds 11 stepped into Philharmagic while dd and I were at BBB. I called him when we got out and he said "We just went into a show and it's about to start. I don't even know what it is." When they came out, he said "that was good." We ate lunch, and I almost forgot about it. That night we were about to leave. It was our last night there, and he looks at me with big eyes and said "Hey! You two never got to see Philharmagic did you? You need to see it." I was shocked. We walked around the castle, went right in, and needless to say I fought back tears the whole time. I knew we were about to leave. It was the first time we had been to Disneyworld, and it may be the only time we get to go. DD 8 loved it to. DS 11 said, "mom there's something really cool that happens at the end." I couldn't believe he liked it too. Now it's one of our treasured Disney memories.

Definitely one of my favorite attractions. This is an absolute must the moment I set foot in MK this August.

 

[JerseyJanice]

We see it at least once every trip, and I am still mesmerized by it every time. I agree--it's awesome!

 

[kathy884]

This is my favorite MK attraction for sure. How could you go wrong with all that great Disney music.

WE just got back from our first trip to WDW and this attraction was definitely on the must-do list based on all the hype I've read about it. It lived up to it's hype and I was very pleased with the overall experience, however the only con I have on it is the video quality. It's a bit fuzzy/dated and transforming it into high-def 1080p would help, IMO.
Outside of that, it still was magical enough to watch it 4 more times before leaving the MK.

We this ride we've seen it at least three time every trip and is just the two of us with no kids.

 

[mlittig]

I also love Mickey's PhilharMagic and make sure I go many times when I am there

 

[BebopBaloo]

It's one of my all time favorites for so so many reasons.

I was sad to see, a couple years ago, that when we got Fast Passes for Winnie the Pooh - we were also given (multiple times) fast passes for Philharmagic, as a perk to get more people to go see it. We were also surveyed by a CM on the way out of the show the year before that.

I really hope that Philharmagic doesn't go away. It's truly a piece of Disney magic.
