The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure Opening Delayed to Summer 2025 2

Disney fans will need to wait a little longer to “be part of that world” at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, as “The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure” has officially been pushed back to summer 2025. This announcement comes on the heels (or should we say fins?) of an updated post on Disney Parks Blog, where the latest news about the show was shared. While many were eagerly anticipating the show to open in fall 2024, Disney’s plans have drifted a bit with the tide.

The update revealed that Disney is in the process of filing permits for a dazzling new marquee, and work on the exterior of the building will begin soon. This latest update comes on the heals of recent updates from Disney, with updated show art being released and posts indicating work within the theater was well underway. The new show will ultimately take over the space formerly occupied by Voyage of the Little Mermaid, which closed during the COVID-related park shutdowns and has yet to resurface.

Of course, this delay has left some fans feeling like a “poor, unfortunate soul.” After all, this isn’t the first time a Disney project has been delayed. The opening of TRON Lightcycle/Run took over five years, despite being an attraction that had already made its debut in Shanghai Disneyland back in 2016. And let’s not forget the recently completed transformation of EPCOT, which took more years to complete than Ariel has dinglehoppers! While the pandemic certainly threw a wrench into construction timelines, the extended wait times are causing more than a few bubbles of frustration to rise among Disney lovers.

As more details float to the surface, we’ll keep you updated on the magical new experience that promises to bring the world of The Little Mermaid to life in a way that will leave us all singing “Under the Sea.” Stay tuned!
