I've been to the Cardiff International Arena in Wales where I experienced 100 years of Disney with an incredible and magical concert to celebrate the occasion with an amazing orchestra & conductor, and I really liked the opening ‪@Disney‬ medley where they showed a montage of all things Disney as projected on the giant screen behind them...
