Disney On Ice is a touring figure-skating show produced by Feld Entertainment that brings Disney characters to arenas across North America and beyond. Each production strings together stories from Disney and Pixar films, and a tour visits each city for a few days before moving on.
A Disney On Ice outing goes well when the show suits your children's favourite films, the seats give a clear view of the ice without blowing the budget, and you buy at the right moment. The Disney On Ice website lists shows, cities and dates and links through to the official ticket seller for each arena.
Which Disney On Ice show
Disney On Ice runs several productions at once, each with its own title and line-up of stories. One may lean on Frozen and Encanto, another on Toy Story, Moana or The Lion King, and Mickey and Minnie usually host.
Check which production is coming to your city and read its character list. A child obsessed with one film will be happiest at the Disney On Ice show that gives it a long segment rather than a cameo.
Shows typically run around two hours including an intermission. For toddlers, a morning or early afternoon slot is kinder than an evening one.
Seat sections and sightlines
Disney On Ice is staged on an ice rink laid over the arena floor. Rinkside and floor seats put children close to the skaters, which is thrilling, but the view is flat and taller adults in front can block small children.
Lower-bowl seats a few rows up along the sides often give the best overall view of the whole rink and the formation skating. Upper-level seats are the budget option; the show is designed to read from a distance, but the characters look small.
Some Disney On Ice dates offer premium packages with extras such as a meet-and-greet or front-row seats. Read exactly what is included, since the extras vary by city.
When tickets are cheapest
Disney On Ice prices vary by date and time. Weekday and early matinee performances are usually cheaper than Saturday shows, which sell out first.
Tickets go on sale weeks or months ahead, and presales and opening-week discounts are the usual moment for codes. Signing up to the Disney On Ice email list is how most families hear about a presale for their city.
Buy through the Disney On Ice site or the arena's official ticket seller. Resale sites can charge well over face value and leave you with no help if something goes wrong.
Fees and what the total includes
Ticketing platforms add service and facility fees on top of the ticket price, and they appear late in checkout. Compare the all-in total when choosing between two Disney On Ice seat sections, not the face value.
Children usually need their own ticket above a stated age, with infants on a lap often free. Check the arena's rule before buying for a baby.
Merchandise, snacks and the day itself
Disney On Ice sells light-up toys, snow-cone cups and character souvenirs in the arena, and they are priced like any event merchandise. Set a budget with the children before you go, or buy the souvenirs from the Disney On Ice online shop ahead of time.
Arrive early. Arena queues, bag checks and parking take longer with small children, and the opening number is often the one they talk about most.
Arenas are kept cold for the ice, so bring a jumper or light jacket for each child, especially in rinkside seats. Many families also pack ear defenders for toddlers, because the music and crowd noise at Disney On Ice can be loud. Check the venue bag policy first, since some arenas limit bag sizes.
Where the Disney On Ice savings are
Disney On Ice ticket codes are usually tied to specific cities, dates and seat levels, and the 35% code looks like a Cyber Week offer. Enter it on the ticket page for your performance; if it is not valid there, try the 25% code.
Percentage codes work best on higher seat levels because the saving scales with the price. Fees are often charged on the reduced ticket price, so compare totals.
The free-shipping code belongs to the Disney On Ice merchandise shop rather than tickets. Use it on a souvenir order placed before the show.
