Coming in 2024, after four years of waiting, Disney is bringing back a musical inspired by “The Little Mermaid” to Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure will be based on the classic animated film, not the new live action “The Little Mermaid” film that debuted in 2023.
This new show will feature iconic songs like, “Part of Your World,” “Poor Unfortunate Souls,” and “Kiss the Girl.” This new show is being worked on now, with an opening date planned for Fall 2024.

For now, guests can meet the live action Ariel from the 2023 film starring Halle Bailey. She is located inside of the Walt Disney Presents building at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Guests can see the animated, cartoon Ariel in person, at a ride or during a parade at Disney’s Magic Kingdom Park. Soon the cartoon Ariel from the 1989 animated “The Little Mermaid” will be swimming back to Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
This new show will be in the previous place of the Voyage of the Little Mermaid show at the Animation Courtyard theater. This theater is located near the Disney Junior Live On Stage show and Star Wars: Launch Bay.
Walt Disney World recently just opened up World Celebration at Epcot. After numerous years of construction, this new central hub of Epcot offers relaxing spaces to enjoy the park portion of the theme park.
