This year’s Disney on Ice has left parents fuming and kids bored, with TikTok mums calling the 2025 production a “major flop”.
A viral trend comparing clips from previous years has sparked outrage from audience members, with many saying this year’s show lacked the “wow factor” that once made it a must-see family event.
“POV: Disney on Ice 2025 was disappointing compared to previous years,” one viral video said, showing side-by-side footage from the 2024 and 2025 shows.
The comparison was stark.
The 2024 show featured dramatic cape reveals, background dancers, smoke machines and even an aerialist suspended from a hoop.
This year was a “slack” performance that left audiences scratching their heads.
“I think I’m going to let Disney on Ice go for 2026,” one mum admitted in the comments.
No Toy Story, no Lion King, no Aladdin … my three-year-old wasn’t interested at all and my daughter, who always LOVES going, said it was boring,” another said.
“We’ve gone every year for four years, this was the weakest show by far.”
