Shanghai Disney Resort ushers in the Year of the Snake with festive celebrations

Gary will be incorporated into the seasonal lantern display, and decorations with it will hang around the Year of the Snake mosaic, featuring Gary as the center imagery. Gary's presence will also be spotted throughout festive adornments along Mickey Avenue.

The nighttime show, Spring Festival Celebration: "Our Families", will incorporate Gary's image from the eve of Spring Festival on Jan 28 through to the Lantern Festival on Feb 12. Projections of Disney families and a special fireworks effect writing the Chinese character for snake in the night sky will appear during the show.

Throughout the resort, lanterns with traditional red and gold decor will adorn the eaves, symbolizing luck and prosperity. Snake motifs will be woven into festive displays as well.
