Hong Kong Disneyland has kicked off its annual Pixar Summer Fest with a packed lineup of new entertainment, interactive experiences, and a brand-new nighttime spectacular. The celebration launched on June 11, 2026, and runs through the summer season.
Coverage from HKDL Fantasy documented the opening day festivities and the debut of several new shows and experiences across the park.
Pixar Pal Spectacular: A New Nighttime Show
The biggest debut of the festival is the brand-new “Pixar Pal Spectacular,” a nighttime show featuring Pixar-themed drone patterns, projection mapping visuals, and classic Pixar music. The show made its first appearance on June 11 and immediately became a highlight of the festivities. HKDL Fantasy called the debut a first look at what will be one of the signature experiences of this year’s summer season at the park.
New Interactive Shows
Two brand-new interactive shows have been added to the Pixar Summer Fest lineup this year. In Adventureland, guests can join Miguel from Coco for a sing-along talent show called “Seize Your Moment,” featuring several of the film’s iconic songs. Near Tomorrowland, a new Turning Red show transforms a school lunch break into a 4*Town fan celebration, with Mei Lee and friends dancing along to 4*Town’s music.
The Turning Red show also marks Mei Lee’s first appearance at HKDL in her human form, making it a notable character debut for the park.
Toy Story 5 Costumes and More
The Opening Day showcase on Main Street U.S.A., called the “All Star Showcase,” featured Woody, Buzz, and Jessie debuting their updated looks from Toy Story 5. The Pixar Water Play Street Party also made a return this year after a one-year hiatus, giving guests a fun daytime water experience tied to the festival. The iconic giant Luxo Jr. lamp and Luxo Ball have also been installed at the park as signature photo opportunities for the summer!
