Wishes: A Magical Gathering of Disney Dreams is a fireworks show at the Magic Kingdom theme park of Walt Disney World. The show debuted at the park on October 8, 2003, and was developed by Walt Disney Creative Entertainment, under the direction of VP Parades & Spectaculars, Steve Davison, who was assigned to create a replacement for the 32-year-old Fantasy in the Sky fireworks. In September and October, during "Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party", the show is replaced with Happy HalloWishes, and in late November and December, Holiday Wishes during "Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party". In 2007, the Magic Kingdom presented a new separate admission (known as a "hard ticket") event called Disney's Pirate and Princess Party with its own fireworks program titled Magic, Music and Mayhem. The version at Disneyland Park in Disneyland Paris premiered on July 16, 2005; its only similarities to the American version were the music and narrative.

Famous quotes containing the word wishes:

    “The approval of the public is to be avoided like the plague. It is absolutely essential to keep the public from entering if one wishes to avoid confusion. I must add that the public must be kept panting in expectation at the gate by a system of challenges and provocations.”
    —André Breton (1896–1966)

    “The problem of the novelist who wishes to write about a man’s encounter with God is how he shall make the experience—which is both natural and supernatural—understandable, and credible, to his reader. In any age this would be a problem, but in our own, it is a well- nigh insurmountable one. Today’s audience is one in which religious feeling has become, if not atrophied, at least vaporous and sentimental.”
    —Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)

    “Mental health depends upon the maintenance of a balance within the personality between the basic human urges and egocentric wishes on the one hand and the demands of conscience and society on the other hand.”
    —Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
