Must See Shows at Disneyland Paris!

No one does live entertainment like Disney and this is certainly the case at Disneyland Paris! Come prepared to be wowed by a variety of Broadway quality shows where you can see your favourite Disney characters, in both much loved stories and brand new tales!




 

With so much to see and experience at Disneyland Paris sometimes you need a little rest! Taking in a show is a fantastic way to have a break during the day so you can sit back and be entertained by the highest quality shows you will find!


Let’s look at all the shows you can enjoy at Disneyland Paris so you can plan what you can’t miss out on during your trip!

 





Rhythm of the Pride Lands

This Lion King show, in Frontierland, is one of the most popular in Disneyland Paris! Featuring songs from the Broadway show, amazing costumes, brilliant vocal performances and even acrobatics, it is not to be missed!

 

You can hear classic songs such as The Circle of Life, I Just Can’t Wait To Be King, Can You Feel The Love Tonight and many more in this 30 minute live show. See characters such as Simba, Timon, Pumba and Scar as you take a musical journey through this iconic Disney story.

 

Watch out for the cheeky monkeys as they propel themselves into the air for some impressive acrobats, performers high in the sky using silks and some impressive costumes that will wow you!

 

The Frontierland Theatre is very large and can seat approximately 800 people. Because of the popularity of this show most performances do become completely full, so arrive early to guarantee your entry. Some people start queuing an hour before the show starts. This show does have multiple showings each day so you will have plenty of opportunities to see this amazing production during your trip.

 

You can also purchase Premier Access passes for Rhythm of the Pride Lands, for 15 per person, which guarantees you a seat, cuts down your queue time plus enables you to get to enter first and pick from your choice of seats.

 

This is a must see for fans of The Lion King and is one of the best shows in Disneyland Paris!

 

 



Mickey and the Magician

Mickey and the Magician is a spectacular show in Walt Disney Studios Park that brings together the main mouse himself, magical special effects and some beloved Disney characters! This original show is not to be missed and is one of the stand out shows in Disneyland Paris!

 

This show is only performed in this Disney Park, you cannot see it anywhere else in the world, so it is very special and something you will definitely want to see when you visit Disneyland Paris!

 

At almost 30 minutes long this impressive show combines magic and special effects in an original story and features characters from Disney classics such as Cinderella, Frozen, Aladdin, The Lion King and Beauty and the Beast. Join Mickey as he works as a magician apprentice and things come to life when he is left alone in the workshop!

 

You will hear songs from these iconic films, accompanied by West End level performances, with impressive props, great sets, amazing singing and fabulous dancing!

 

This show is performed in a mixture of French and English, in a way that makes it easy to follow along with the story even if you don’t speak French. This is something Disneyland Paris does really well in multiple shows.

 

This is a super popular show with people queuing an hour before the show starts to get in. If you don’t want to wait you can purchase Premier access passes for Mickey and the Magician which cost 15 per person. This allows you to queue for a much shorter time, in a smaller queue and to be the first people into the auditorium so you can get your pick of any seat!

 




Together: A Pixar Musical Adventure

The newest show to debut at Disneyland Paris is Together: A Pixar Musical Adventure. Head to Walt Disney Studios Park to enjoy this original and immersive show! This is a much hyped and adored show so don’t miss out, as you won’t find a show like this anywhere else!

 

Here you will be taken on a 30 minute musical adventure with characters from Toy Story, such as Buzz, Woody and Jessie, as they find themselves entering the world of other Pixar characters from films such as Coco, Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc and Up.

 

This is a must see show as you get to see characters that you can only find during this performance, so if you are a big Pixar fan be sure to get a spot in the auditorium so you can see your favourite characters!

 

Featuring incredible sets that use screens in a really innovative and creative way, plus live musicians performing songs from these much loved movies, this musical adventure will make you laugh (and maybe cry!). This is a show unlike any other and will leave you filled with joy!

 

You cannot record or take photographs during this highly anticipated show to help keep the magical special effects a surprise, so I won’t give anything away, but I tell you that you absolutely will not want to skip over seeing this show during your time at Disneyland Paris!

 

This show combines English and French seamlessly so you can enjoy the storyline even without knowing French.

 

Together: A Pixar Musical Adventure is a must see show during your trip to Disneyland Paris and also offers Premier Access so you can skip the queue and pick from the best seats in the house for 15  per person.

 

 



Frozen: A Musical Invitation

Frozen is one of Disney’s most popular films and you can now experience the songs in Frozen: A Musical Invitation in Walt Disney Studios Park. This 20 minute show features all your favourite Frozen characters, including Anna, Elsa, Olaf, Kristoff and Sven.

 

Taking place in both Kristoff’s hut and Elsa’s ice palace you will hear songs such as Reindeer’s Are Better Than People, Love Is An Open Door and Let It Go.

 

There is also some audience participation where you learn some simple dance moves to perform during Let It Go, which is a lovely way for everyone to be involved in the show!

 

This show is performed in a mixture of English and French and is done in a way that you can totally follow along with the storyline so matter which language you speak, which is something Disney has learnt to do really well.

 

This show can draw a big queue, and does not have Premier Access, so it is a good idea to arrive early to guarantee your spot to see this show.

When you enter the Dream Factory you meet the workers who are having trouble following their own dreams. With help from Mickey, Minnie and the Disney Junior characters they are inspired to pursue them and do what their heart desires!
