Disney On Ice: Spotlight Magic Brings Childhood Memories to Life
Once Upon a Rink: Disney On Ice Spins Childhood Favorites into a Spectacular Night of Skating, Sparkle and Storybook Magic.
September 9th, 2026
What if, for a couple of hours, you could step back into your childhood and bring your children along with you?
That is the magic of Disney on Ice Presents: Spotlight Magic. As the lights dim and Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Pluto glide onto the ice, the familiar music, dazzling costumes and unmistakable Disney characters create an instant sense of nostalgia. But this production is more than a trip down memory lane. It is a showcase of athleticism, artistry and imagination that brings multiple Disney worlds to life right before your eyes.
The show begins and ends with Disney classics Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Pluto, continuing a tradition that connects generations of fans. In between, audiences are taken through some of Disney’s most memorable stories, with scenes and music from Tangled, Toy Story, Beauty and the Beast, Monsters, Inc. and Moana.
Each story creates its own world on the ice. With Moana, the production transports the audience into a colorful Pacific Island setting filled with adventure. Then, with Beauty and the Beast, the rink takes on the atmosphere of Belle and the Beast’s romantic story, with the ever-charming Lumière joining them along the way.
The combination of skating, music, costumes, scenery and special effects makes the transitions feel like stepping from one Disney movie directly into another.
There are also some new faces joining the fun.
One of the most exciting additions is Angel, who makes her North American on-ice debut after being introduced by Stitch. The show also welcomes characters from Zootopia 2, including Judy Hopps, Nick Wilde, Gazelle and Gary De’Snake.
For me, Zootopia was the absolute highlight.
It brought an incredible burst of energy to the ice, combining impressive skating and choreography with music, dancing and a spectacular firecracker-style effects display. It was one of those moments when the entire arena seemed to come alive. The creativity and precision of the performance made the sequence especially memorable.
Throughout Spotlight Magic, the visuals add another dimension to the experience. Lighting, elaborate costumes, scenery and special effects continually transform the rink, allowing the audience to move from one Disney universe to another without losing the momentum of the show.
Yet beneath all the Disney magic is the impressive talent of the skaters themselves. These performers have the difficult task of making familiar animated characters feel alive while executing demanding choreography and theatrical movement on ice. The skating gives adults another element to appreciate beyond the characters and stories.
That is also what I loved most about Spotlight Magic. It manages to do two things at once. It takes adults back to the Disney stories that were part of their own childhoods while creating entirely new memories for their children.
Watching familiar characters and stories unfold on ice is nostalgic, but watching the performers bring them to life through skating, choreography and theatrical movement makes you appreciate just how much work goes into creating the spectacle.
For families, Disney on Ice Presents: Spotlight Magic is an event filled with music, humor, athleticism, colorful visuals and plenty of sparkle. Whether your favorite Disney world is Moana, Beauty and the Beast, Zootopia, Toy Story or simply the timeless world of Mickey and Minnie, there is something here for multiple generations to enjoy together.
Sometimes the best way to make new family memories is to spend a little time revisiting the magic we loved as children ourselves.

Luli Fama celebrates its Paradise Found Cruise ’27 swimwear and resortwear collection with a luxury Miami launch at its Dadeland Mall boutique.
August 20, 2026
Miami swimwear favorite Luli Fama is stepping into Cruise ’27 with Paradise Found, a new swimwear and resortwear collection inspired by tropical escapes, exotic prints and effortless vacation glamour.
South Florida Insider has already taken a closer look at the Luli Fama Paradise Found collection, and it feels made for Miami.
The new Cruise ’27 collection combines the bold, body-confident swimwear Luli Fama is known for with elevated resort pieces designed to move effortlessly from the beach and pool to cocktails and dinner.
On Thursday, August 20, Luli Fama will celebrate Paradise Found with an exclusive evening at its newest Dadeland Mall boutique in Miami, complete with fashion, light bites, personalized surprises, and a luxe espresso martini bar.
Inside Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 Collection
Paradise Found is inspired by the feeling of discovering a hidden tropical retreat.
Think lush landscapes, warm golden hour light, exotic patterns, and silhouettes made for somewhere beautiful.
The collection features Luli Fama signatures, including flattering ruched details, seamless construction, adjustable fits, and statement swimwear, alongside an expanded selection of resortwear.
We especially love the pieces that blur the line between swim and ready-to-wear.
Flowing dresses, sleek coverups, and body-skimming silhouettes make it easy to transition from a sun-drenched afternoon to an evening out without losing that relaxed resort feeling.
It is sensual, polished, and unmistakably Miami.
Luli Fama Brings Luxury Resort Style to Miami
There is a reason Paradise Found feels so natural in South Florida.
In Miami, resortwear is not reserved for vacation.
A swimsuit can become part of an outfit. A coverup can take you to lunch. A flowing resort dress can carry you from an afternoon by the water straight into cocktails and dinner.
Luli Fama has always understood that lifestyle.
Paradise Found takes it a step further, creating a Cruise ’27 wardrobe that feels as appropriate for a tropical getaway as it does for a weekend in Miami.
The campaign captures that mood beautifully, pairing the collection with palms, lush greenery, tropical architecture and the kind of sun soaked setting that makes you want to extend your vacation indefinitely.
Paradise Found Comes to Luli Fama at Dadeland Mall
Luli Fama will bring the world of Paradise Found to life on Thursday, August 20 from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM at its newest boutique at Dadeland Mall in Miami.
The intimate celebration will bring together invited guests, influencers, celebrities and media for an early look at Cruise ’27.
Luli Fama is also dressing invited guests in pieces from the brand, allowing the new collection to be experienced the way it was designed to be worn: in motion, styled and out for the evening.
Luli After Hours Espresso Martini Bar
Fashion is only part of the experience.
For the Paradise Found celebration, Luli Fama is introducing Luli After Hours, an Espresso Martini Bar inspired by the glamour of the collection.
Guests will be able to sip three specialty espresso martinis created for the evening.
The Luli Babe puts a polished spin on the classic espresso martini, while Golden Hour pairs salted caramel with edible gold shimmer. Miami After Dark takes a richer approach with chocolate hazelnut and a cocoa dust finish.
Along with cocktails, guests can expect light bites, curated details and a special personalized surprise.
The result feels less like a traditional retail event and more like checking into a private resort for the evening.
A Miami Swimwear Brand Celebrates at Home
For a brand with such a strong connection to South Florida, launching Paradise Found in Miami feels especially fitting.
Luli Fama has built its identity around colorful, confident swimwear and resort fashion with a distinctly tropical point of view.
Paradise Found carries that identity into Cruise ’27 while giving it a more elevated, escapist mood.
And with Luli Fama’s newest boutique now at Dadeland Mall, Miami shoppers have another destination to experience the brand in person.
After getting our own closer look at Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 collection, we can safely say the name fits.
Paradise has officially been found, and this time, it is in Miami.
