Shanghai Disney Resort will host a multi-day grand opening celebration June 14-16, with local and international media plus special guests in attendance for the historic occasion.
The festivities will include the global premiere of the first-ever Mandarin production of the Broadway hit, Disney’s THE LION KING. Invited guests will also enjoy the beauty of Wishing Star Park, tour Shanghai Disneyland Hotel and Toy Story Hotel, and experience the attractions and entertainment of Shanghai Disneyland.
Throughout the grand opening celebration, some areas of the resort may not be available to the public. Disneytown, the shopping, dining and entertainment district, is planned to be closed on June 14 as part of the event. Also, public transportation to and from the resort will have varying operating hours June 14-16. Access and operating hours are subject to change, so please check before making plans to visit Shanghai Disney Resort during that time.
