Disney prepares for summer with new deals, shows and experiences

On March 26, 2025, Disney officially confirmed the opening date of May 27, 2025, for two new shows at Disney's Hollywood Studios: 'The Little Mermaid- A Musical Adventure' and 'Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After'.
These new shows and experiences are part of Disney's broader strategy to entice guests with special summer deals, including discounted lodging, three-day tickets starting at $89 per day, and free dining plans with the purchase of a non-discounted 4-night, 4-day package.
'The Little Mermaid- A Musical Adventure' will replace the previously closed 'Voyage of the Little Mermaid' and will feature live performers, puppets, updated sets, and visuals, bringing the classic movie to life on stage.
'Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After', staged in the Sunset Showcase building, will feature villains like Cruella de Vil, Captain Hook, and Maleficent making a case for their unfair treatment, with showtimes available throughout the day.
Alongside these debuts and offers, Disney is planning major expansions at its flagship theme park, Magic Kingdom, and other projects at Hollywood Studios, including a Monsters, Inc. Land, a Muppet-based reimagining of Rock 'n' Roller Coaster, and a villains-themed land, despite facing some sluggishness at its domestic theme parks.
