Manchester Arena will be transformed into the wintry world of Arendelle as the enchanting tale of Frozen is brought to life in Disney on Ice.

Princesses Anna and Elsa will be getting their skates on along with pals Olaf and Kristoff to recreate some of the smash-hit film’s best-loved moments in front of thousands of fans at the venue this autumn.

The story, based on Hans Christian Andersen’s classic fairy tale The Snow Queen, follows Anna as she embarks on an epic adventure with snowman Olaf and rugged mountain man Kristoff to find her sister, the magical Elsa, whose icy powers have trapped the kingdom of Arendelle in eternal winter.

Show co-producer Nicole Feld said: “Our recreation of Arendelle and the visual splendour on the ice sets the stage for the magical transformation from summer to winter.

“While it might seem obvious that Frozen is well suited for the ice, this Disney on Ice production will touch audiences emotionally through innovative show elements and world-class skating.”

The story is one of four fun-filled Disney and Pixar favourites that will be brought to life during the Worlds of Enchantment tour, along with The Little Mermaid, Cars and Toy Story 3.

And of course no Disney on Ice show would be complete without Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy putting in an appearance.

The show comes to Manchester from October 14 to 18. Tickets are on sale now priced at £20 plus booking fee.
