When does Disney on Ice 2023 start, and what are this years shows?

There’s nothing like the magic of Disney, the way it inspires and encourages as it highlights the importance of family, friendship, and falling in love. We all grew up with Disney, Pixar, fairytales, and characters we saw ourselves in, ones we wanted to be more like, and ones that warned us to be careful who we let into our hearts.

While Disney Parks are one way we can connect with the magic of the Mouse House, Disney on Ice is another way that those of us who can’t make it to the parks as often as we’d like to (see also: daily) can connect with some of our favorite characters and stories in an exciting way. From babies and toddlers to adults, there’s much to explore at every Disney on Ice stop. Audiences have fun no matter how familiar they are with the characters taking the ice, and the memories you make there with your friends and loved ones can’t be replaced.

From Frozen and Encanto to Tangled and Beauty and the Beast — Mickey and his best friends take audiences through some of the most compelling stories in Disney history as the characters perform beautifully across the ice of cities everywhere. As we said before, it’s something extraordinary to witness.

Disney on Ice is about to kick off a new run of shows for the remainder of 2023, and with five exciting shows soon to be traveling around the country, there are many options for Disney lovers to take in some of the magic in their own hometowns. So what are the 2023 stops, and where can you pause your life to celebrate the magic for a few hours?
