From the Disney Parks Blog:
We can’t keep this news under Mickey’s sorcerer hat much longer. Fans of “Mickey’s PhilharMagic” will soon be tapping to a new song with the debut of an animated scene based on Disney and Pixar’s “Coco.”
The musical number “Un Poco Loco” will anchor the new scene when it opens to guests at Disney California Adventure park and Disneyland Paris on July 17, before being added to Magic Kingdom Park later this year during the Walt Disney World Resort 50th anniversary celebration.
The film’s fun, upbeat music and characters combined with the humor of Donald Duck marks the first time Disney and Pixar animators have worked on a creative endeavor where characters from both animation studios will be seen together on screen.
Because music is such an integral part of the show, we were also fortunate to tap one of the film’s original composers – the world-renowned Germaine Franco – to produce a “Coco” score unique to “Mickey’s PhilharMagic.”
New scene from Disney and Pixar’s ‘Coco’ coming to Mickey’s PhilharMagic
Guests will enjoy this new scene alongside all of the show’s current fan-favorite musical numbers. Now it’s time to put on those opera glasses and let the show begin!
I can't wait to see the new addition when us Canadians can cross the border and head back to our favourite place!

This is good news - now if only they'd fix the fuzzy parts. Like when they add to existing attractions... or as the imagineers call it - plus.

Honestly shocked they didn't add Frozen to Philharmagic before Coco... Welcome any new scenes, freshen a great show up... But Coco over Frozen??? I am shocked actually... Disney lived on Frozen for 5 years... Guess it is time for them to move on...
Looking forward to the Coco scene... Hope it is in when I visit end of October...
You're dead if you aim only for kids. Adults are only kids grown up, anyway.

It's interesting that they are doing a Disney/Pixar crossover. I would have liked to have seen Moana incorporated.
Speaking of fuzzy parts...I wonder when MuppetVision 3D will get some love or will they steam roll it to extend Galaxy's Edge? How about a Muppets in Space attraction or maybe a take off of the Muppets Star Wars episode?
