Fun Facts: The plush toys in ‘Dreamland’ looks awfully like Dumbo in the 1941 version.

At Dreamland, the announcer was saying the lyrics of ‘When I See an Elephant Fly’ one of the songs from the 1941 version.

Dreamland is inspired by Coney Island, World’s Fair and Disney Parks.

The bubbles mirrors ‘Pink Elephants on Parade’ from the 1941 version.
