Among some of the highlights making a grand return to the Harambe Theatre are the acrobatic and comedic tumble monkeys and the aerial bird dancers.
“Festival of the Lion King” is a high-energy live musical that combines music, puppetry and pageantry inspired by Disney’s animated film classic, “The Lion King.”
The show is an exciting retelling of the film and immerses the audience in theatrics and classic songs.
The show runs approximately 30 minutes long and does include some audience participation. Guests can find showtimes for the show outside the theater or in the My Disney Experience app.
