INTRODUCTION

Flying carpets, magic lamps, wise-cracking genies, princesses, and evil wizards - they're all a part of this amazing musical production.

ATTRACTION

Disney's Aladdin - A Musical Spectacular lives up to its name - it is truly a spectacular Broadway-quality show. Many of the classic scenes and songs from the movie are re-created on stage and some of the action even spills out into the aisles, like Prince Ali's jubilant arrival in Agrabah on elephant back.

This 40 minute production takes place in the 2,000 seat Hyperion Theater, located at the end of Hollywood Blvd. The theater itself is beautiful inside and out, with design features reminiscent of many classic theaters.

TOURING TIPS

Seating is first come, first served.

The theater is divided into three sections: the Orchestra section on the ground floor, the Mezzanine, and the Balcony. You choose which section you want to sit in when you get in line. Sitting in the Mezzanine or Balcony will require climbing up several flights of steps, though there are elevators to the upper levels for those who really need them. And inside the theater, access to any seats in the Mezzanine or Balcony other than those in the back rows requires climbing down some rather steep steps.

Once inside the theater it's not easy to switch to a different level - you'll need to see a Cast Member for assistance.

No food or drink is allowed inside the theater.

There are NO RESTROOMS in the theater - make sure to stop before you get in line. The closest restrooms are to the left of the theater as you approach it from Hollywood Blvd.

Special seating areas are available for guests in wheelchairs/ECVs and their parties.

Assistive listening is provided - receivers are available at Guest Relations.
