Ashley Brown and Josh Strickland will reunite to celebrate the 20th anniversaries of the Broadway productions of Mary Poppins and Tarzan. Brown originated the title role in Mary Poppins, while Strickland originated the role of Tarzan.
Later in January, Tony Award nominees Adam Pascal and Sherie Rene Scott will make their Festival debuts. Both have extensive Broadway credits, including Rent and Disney’s Aida.
Sierra Boggess returns alongside Norm Lewis, with the pair drawing on their shared history in productions including The Little Mermaid and The Phantom of the Opera.
February’s lineup includes Kara Lindsay, Broadway’s original Katherine in Newsies, paired with Mason Reeves, who originated Kristoff in the North American tour of Frozen.
The final regular pairing features Caissie Levy, Broadway’s original Elsa, and Ryan McCartan, who originated Prince Hans in the North American tour of Frozen.
Special Newsies Finale Coming February 27–March 1
One of the biggest additions to the anniversary celebration is a special finale titled Seize the Day! A Newsies Celebration.
The production will close the Festival on February 27, February 28, and March 1.
Disney has not yet announced which performers will participate or what the special concert will include.
The finale represents a departure from the regular two-performer format and gives the anniversary series a dedicated closing celebration.
Additional details are expected before the Festival begins.
Disney on Broadway Dining Packages Open December 3
Guests interested in securing seats for their preferred performers will be able to book Disney on Broadway Concert Series Dining Packages beginning December 3, 2026.
The packages combine a meal at a participating EPCOT restaurant with guaranteed seating for a concert performance later that day.
Disney has not yet released the complete 2027 restaurant lineup or package pricing.
Regular concert attendance is included with valid EPCOT admission, subject to available seating. Dining packages provide a way to secure access to a designated seating section rather than relying entirely on the general admission queue.
Guests planning visits around a particular Broadway performer should review the schedule before selecting dining reservations, since the artists rotate throughout the Festival.
New Broadway Exhibit Coming to CommuniCore Hall
The concerts will not be the only Broadway-focused addition to the 2027 Festival of the Arts.
Disney has announced Once Upon A Stage: The Music of Disney on Broadway, a new exhibit coming to CommuniCore Hall.
The exhibit will explore how Disney stories and music are adapted for Broadway productions, featuring shows such as The Lion King, Aladdin, and Beauty and the Beast.
Disney has also confirmed a new merchandise collection inspired by Disney’s theatrical productions.
The assortment will include merchandise celebrating Hercules, Aladdin, The Lion King, and Beauty and the Beast.
Together, the exhibit and merchandise offerings expand the Disney on Broadway presence beyond the America Gardens Theatre.
Festival of the Arts Returns January 15
The 2027 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts will run January 15 through March 1, with Disney Lorcana Trading Card Game serving as the presenting sponsor.
The annual event combines visual art, live entertainment, interactive activities, and specialty food offerings throughout EPCOT.
The Disney on Broadway Concert Series has become one of the Festival’s signature attractions, allowing guests to hear performers associated with major Disney theatrical productions in a more intimate setting than a traditional Broadway theater.
With six new performers, a dedicated Newsies finale, and an expanded Broadway presence inside CommuniCore Hall, the 2027 edition will mark the concert series’ 10th anniversary with several notable additions.
Guests can begin planning around the newly announced performance dates now, with dining-package reservations opening December 3.
