The International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA) has announced its Brass Ring finalists, and the excellent Nightmare Before Christmas Sing-Along show from Disney Jollywood Nights has been nominated. The 20-minute show is exclusive to the Disney Jollywood Nights upcharge event at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and it features wonderful performers who use brilliant physicality throughout the experience as guests sing along to iconic songs from the Nightmare Before Christmas movie.
Nightmare Before Christmas Sing-Along Nominated for Brass Ring Award
The Nightmare Before Christmas Sing-Along has been announced as a finalist in the “Most Creative Winter Holiday Production” category, and is competing against the “Six Flags Holiday Special” from Six Flags Over Georgia and “Frosty’s Electric Snow Party” from Universal Studios Japan.
The tradition of the brass ring, a term now synonymous with spectacular achievement, dates back to the 1800s when rings were hung on carousels to pose a fun challenge for riders. Successfully grabbing a ring while riding the carousel often earned riders prizes, often including an additional free ride. Most rings were made of iron, but a few were made of brass, so grabbing the brass ring was a coveted and celebrated treat.
The IAAPA Brass Ring Awards honor this tradition by celebrating achievements of excellence throughout the global attractions industry. The IAAPA Brass Ring Awards are considered one of the global attractions industry’s most prestigious honors.
Brass Ring winners will be announced at the IAAPA Honors, April 28-30 at Europa Park.
