Refurbishments
Disneyland's ''Fantasmic!'' has undergone several technical refreshes. A new sound system debuted in the summer of 2007, along with new show barges featuring LED lighting arrays.

In 2008, the three original 70mm projectors were replaced with high definition (HD) digital projectors. A new audio-animatronic dragon (nicknamed Murphy by fans, after
Murphy's law, when the dragon experienced multiple delays in 2009) was built to replace the previous dragon which had been a mechanical dragon's head on a JLG cherry picker. The new dragon was designed to be a full-bodied replica of Maleficent's final form in ''Sleeping Beauty'', standing at 45 feet tall.
In early February 2010, the entire
Rivers of America were drained. Both the ''Mark Twain'' and the Sailing Ship ''Columbia'' were refurbished, and the track along which the ships travel was replaced. The show's underwater effects underwent maintenance as well, and the laser effects for the finale were upgraded. On August 28, 2010, the second-generation dragon broke again, partly collapsing during a performance. It was restored to the show on November 12, 2010.
On January 11, 2016, ''Fantasmic!'' and other attractions closed due to the construction of
''Star Wars'': Galaxy's Edge. It reopened on July 15, 2017. This version features some scenes that are inspired by the defunct Tokyo DisneySea version of ''Fantasmic!'', along with the "Imagination" song as part of the post-show.
