With the exciting return of firework spectaculars over Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, along with Animal Kingdom’s modified Celebration of the Festival of the Lion King, we’ve been anxiously anticipating the return of other shows and live productions throughout Walt Disney World. Well, we’ve got great news… this summer, four more favorites will rejoin the entertainment lineup!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Beginning August 1st, Disney’s Hollywood Studios will light up the night (and the Chinese Theater) with the return of Wonderful World of Animation; a cinematic celebration of 90+ years of Disney and Pixar animation. Colorful scenes filled with favorite characters are projected onto the Chinese Theatre and surrounding buildings, synced to beloved Disney tunes.
And on August 15th, a tale as old as time returns to the Theater of the Stars on Sunset Boulevard with Beauty and the Beast – Live on Stage.
With these two DHS shows reopening, we still await operational updates for Fantasmic!, Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular, Voyage of the Little Mermaid, and Disney Junior Dance Party.
Magic Kingdom
On August 8th, Monstropolis will once again welcome humans (HELLOOOO HUMANS!) at Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor in Tomorrowland. Do you have any go-to jokes for Mike Wazowski?
Additionally, Disney has clarified that Happily Ever After will end on September 29th at Magic Kingdom before the new spectacular Disney Enchantment debuts on October 1st. Plan accordingly!
EPCOT
Finally, beginning August 21st, chat with your favorite 150-year old sea turtle in Turtle Talk with Crush!
EPCOT Forever will conclude its limited-time run on the night of September 28th, before Harmonious premieres on October 1st. Will you be there for its last hurrah?
