Disney’s Hollywood Studios is where the stories you love come to life. Originally opened as Disney-MGM Studios in 1989, the park has transitioned from a working film studio into a collection of the most immersive “worlds” in theme park history, including Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Toy Story Land.
As of this month, the park is undergoing a major entertainment shift. The Animation Courtyard is currently being reimagined, but guests can now enjoy the fully debuted “The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure,” which features state-of-the-art puppetry and live performance.
