The fireworks gave their final performance as the 2015 Frozen Summer Fun run ended on September 7, 2015, and the show was never staged again.

Inside the Magic gives the 2015 run as June 17 to September 7. Wikipedia's park attraction list files "Frozen Fireworks Spectacular (2014-15; seasonal)" under former nighttime entertainment.

The show returned for a second summer on June 17, 2015 with a new pyro design and with Olaf out on stage alongside Anna, Kristoff and Elsa instead of appearing only on a screen.

Inside the Magic wrote that "the new Frozen stage is highly visible in front of the Chinese Theater" and that "the fireworks has also gotten some new pyro design" - the 2015 event was built around that stage rather than the Sorcerer Mickey Hat projections used in 2014.

Frozen Fireworks debuted at Disney's Hollywood Studios as the 9:45 p.m. nightly finale of the limited-time Frozen Summer Fun event, giving the Sorcerer Mickey Hat on Hollywood Boulevard a Frozen treatment under fireworks.

Billed in 2014 simply as "Frozen Fireworks"; the event was announced to run July 5 through September 1, 2014. Anna, Elsa, Kristoff and Olaf featured in the show, and Inside the Magic's 2015 follow-up establishes that Olaf appeared only on a screen that first year. A Frozen Summer Fun Premium Package ($59 adult / $34 child, tax and gratuity included) sold reserved viewing and a dessert party for the fireworks.
