Two brand-new shows are coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios — and we couldn’t be more excited.

First, Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After will take us into the world of some of Disney’s most wicked baddies to explain how they’ve been treated unfairly. However, we’re also getting a brand-new Little Mermaid show in the park, The Little Mermaid — A Musical Adventure, which will replace the previous Little Mermaid show that has been closed there since 2020. Even better? Both shows are set to premiere on May 27th. Ahead of its premiere, Disney just made a BIG change to the theater that will be home for Ariel’s new adventure.
With The Little Mermaid — A Musical Adventure opening in just a few weeks, Disney has unveiled the marquee for the show on the theater. Look at this stuff…isn’t it neat?

You might notice that there’s also a standby entrance, as well as a Lightning Lane entrance. Disney previously confirmed that this show would be available as an attraction you can book through via a Lightning Lane (either Lightning Lane Multi Pass or Lightning Lane Single Pass — Disney hasn’t confirmed which yet, though).

Disney recently revealed some hints about the upcoming show, even mentioning that, unlike the previous Little Mermaid show, this one will feature Ariel’s sisters. The show will also be using puppetry, as well as some high-tech digital effects to create a retelling of Ariel’s story. Prince Eric’s role in the show will be bigger, too, plus we’ll get a big “Kiss the Girl” number for the first time.

As we previously stated, the new show opens on May 27th, and we’ll be there to get you ALL the details, so stay tuned to DFB for more.
