It’s been a HUGE week for Disney World!

Celebration of The Festival of The Lion King
Although much of Disney World’s entertainment was suspended when the parks reopened, we’re starting to see some shows return to the parks. And one of the most popular shows at Disney World, a modified version of Festival of the Lion King at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, soft opened this past week!
And although there are some differences about the show, it’s still on our must-see list of things to do at Disney World! But seating for the show is very limited, and well, you might not be able to get to Disney World anytime soon to see it. But there’s still a way to view it!

It’s still a great show!
Disney has announced that it will livestream the first official opening performance of A Celebration of The Festival of the Lion King on May 15th (tomorrow!) at 12:25PM EST on the Disney Parks Blog. So you don’t even have to go to Disney World to see it. Mark your calendars because you are in for a treat!
And stay tuned because we’ll keep you updated on other entertainment when it returns to the parks!
