Exciting developments are unfolding at Disney’s Hollywood Studios and they're happening swiftly!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
In just 10 days, two new shows will debut, infusing fresh energy into the park. Unfortunately, this also means some farewells, with Muppets Courtyard preparing to close. Let’s explore what's set to change.
The Little Mermaid—A Musical Adventure Is the Glow-Up We’ve Been Waiting For
If you remember the classic “Voyage of the Little Mermaid,” brace yourself for something entirely new. The theater is finally lighting up again with an all-new reimagined production titled The Little Mermaid—A Musical Adventure.
This isn’t just a minor update. Expect cutting-edge digital puppets, enhanced staging, and a revitalized storyline. Disney even hinted sneak peeks on Instagram with fun props like a treasure chest.
More about the show:
- The performance runs continuously from 9:15 AM to 7:15 PM, offering numerous opportunities to catch it.
- Lightning Lane access will be available, but it’s unclear if it's part of the Multi Pass or Single Pass system.
- Prince Eric gets more spotlight with "Kiss the Girl" taking center stage as the main musical number.
- For the first time, Ariel’s sisters are included in the stage show, adding a new twist of fun.
- Be ready for digital puppets, new musical segments, and visuals promising to elevate theme park stage shows.
Honestly, this sounds like a must-see. If you're heading to Hollywood Studios post-May 27th, make room for this in your plans.
Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After Is Set to Become the Park’s Most Dramatic Show
Villains are finally stealing the spotlight on Sunset Boulevard. Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After is taking over the former Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy space and it sounds like a thrilling improvement.

The concept is exciting: Maleficent, Captain Hook, and Cruella De Vil make their cases to the audience on why they were misunderstood. It’s part courtroom drama, part dark comedy—totally captivating.
Details include:
- The show runs 15 times daily, starting at 10 AM and wrapping up with the last performance at 7 PM.
- Despite many showtimes, the popularity may still fill seats fast, especially among die-hard villain fans.
- Besides the main villains, expect surprise appearances from other favorite villains throughout the show.
If you enjoy a dash of villainy or simply something unique, don’t miss this one.
A Bittersweet Farewell to Muppets Courtyard

Muppet*Vision 3D
This nostalgic gem was beloved by many and marked Jim Henson's last project. It blends 3D visuals, animatronics, and live action, delivering timeless charm. Its closure marks the end of a laid-back experience in an action-packed park.
Also closing on June 8th, the Muppet-themed eatery will serve its last slice on June 7th. Catch your final laughs with Kermit before time runs out.
