History
Soon after Mattel's Irvin & Kenneth Feld Productions purchased Ice Follies and Holiday on Ice in 1979, the company approached Disney about doing a Disney-related show on ice. Feld Productions licensed the rights to Disney material for ice shows.[1][2] In 1981, they began productions under the name Walt Disney's World on Ice.[2][3]
In March 1982, Irvin & Kenneth Feld purchased back Feld Productions from Mattel including Ice Follies/Walt Disney's World on Ice.[2] In 1987, Walt Disney's World on Ice made its international debut[4] in Japan with Happy Birthday Donald.[5] In 1988, the company had five touring shows.[6] The name was changed to "Disney on Ice" in 1998.[7] By 2008, a new show was launched every year.[5]

Perspective
The show is usually hosted by Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, assisted at times by Goofy and Donald Duck. The series also implements characters and stories from recently released Disney films as a cross-promotion tactic, with each subject changing as the show annually updates.
In 2020, Disney on Ice shows were cancelled worldwide due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[8][9][10][11] Performances eventually resumed on November 6, 2020, beginning with "Dream Big".
In Saturday, June 12, 2025, Disney on Ice presents: "The Lion King" based on the 1994 Walt Disney animated feature film classic story theatrical experience motion picture of the same name The Lion King movie.
