IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth

Revel in rousing original music as lasers turn the very sky into a work of art.

The British Invasion
Rock on with the best of British pop as these four marvelous mopheads play hits from the '60s. Sing along with your favorites, from "Nowhere Man" to "Penny Lane," and enjoy different songs during each performance. Revive yourself with the 1960s British rock 'n' roll revival!

Serveur Amusant
Thrill to dazzling achievements of acrobatics and artistry in this beguiling balancing act. Be amazed as these unique performers turn an ordinary table setting into a teetering tower that threatens to topple over the cobblestone streets of the France Pavilion. Be thrown off-balance by — Serveur Amusant!

Dragon Legend Acrobats
Marvel at the stunts of these terrific young Chinese acrobats as they defy gravity flying through the air, diving through hoops, forming human pyramids and much more!

Height Requirements
So as not to suffer any disappointment here is quick glance at some of the height restrictions for the attractions in The Magic Kingdom. A Disney cast member will be positioned at the entrance to these attractions and measuring guests. Close will not be good enough to allow you to pass by.

Mission: SPACE
Minimum height requirement 44 inches / 113 cm

Soarin'
Minimum height requirement 40 inches / 102 cm

Test Track

The “Child Swap”
If there are some in your party who does not quite measure up or who simply don’t want to venture on a certain attraction, while there are others who could not dream of missing the experience what do you do? You may want to consider a procedure known as a "child swap" option.

This procedure with allow those in a party who can't ride a particular attraction due to height restrictions or other reasons not to hold back those that want to. In order for this procedure to work there will need to be two adults in the party. This procedure has varied from time to time and from attraction to attraction over the years, but here is what you can expect.

As you approach the attraction in question consult with the cast member who is acting a the “greeter” and inform them that you wish to perform the “child swap”. The procedure will involve one adult waiting with those that will not be enjoying the attraction, usually at the loading area, while those willing and able enjoy the ride. At the conclusion of the first groups experience the second adult will be allowed to ride without waiting through the line again. A member of the first group can join the second adult in order that they don’t have to experience the ride alone.
