Immersive Disney Animation exhibit at Sands Theatre
Avid Disney fans, we’ve got the latest tea: the Immersive Disney Animation event is finally hitting our shores this November, so mark your calendars ‘lest you miss out.
From 18th November 2023, there’ll be cool interactive exhibits on various Disney hits including Frozen, The Little Mermaid, and The Lion King at Sands Theatre. And if you’re parents to young kiddos, take this opportunity to introduce them to your favourite films growing up. Here’s everything you need to know:

Held at the Sands Theatre at Marina Bay Sands, the Immersive Disney Animation is a 90-minute affair where you’ll be able to experience various exhibits that are all things Disney.

We’re talking Frozen, Encanto, Zootopia, Big Hero 6, The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, and Peter Pan – all the big hits from the 1980s to recent years. Budding Picassos can watch time-lapse videos of how each character is sketched, line by line. Spoiler alert: it’s not as easy as typing a couple of words into an AI image generator.

Then, enter the vault to get to the 360° gallery. Iconic scenes from various films will be played on the giant screens, so feel free to sing along to Let It Go or belt out the Circle of Life. In case you need help, the beginning of the song goes “Nants ingonyama bagithi Baba.” You’re welcome.
The wristbands you receive will also light up in several colours.

Adding to the experience are the bubble machines that are constantly blowing little blobs around the room so you’ll truly feel like you’re under the sea. We already know that this element will be a big hit amongst the children.

The floor here ain’t lava; it’s ever-changing. The floor of the gallery is also interactive. Think image projections that’ll change as you tread around the room. Just imagine you’re frolicking in a field of flowers with Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, and each sunflower sways with every step you take.

Do you wanna build a snowman? Or more specifically, learn how to draw the lovable Olaf and his friends. For a hands-on activity, head to the Drawing Table where you’ll get to learn the techniques used to draw different Disney characters. You can then use these same skills to create new animated characters, and who knows, you might just be the next Walt Disney!

It’s time to whip your Disney prince or princess outfit out of the storeroom and don it. If you’re too shy, make your kids dress up instead – hehe – because this is your chance to fulfill your Disney dreams.
