Under the Sea - Journey of the Little Mermaid Feb 02, 2015 to Mar 03, 2015

Announced on 12 September 2009, Ariel's Adventure opens in 2012 - 2013 at the new Fantasyland in the Magic Kingdom. The brand new attraction is based on the new Little Mermaid attraction being added to Disney's California Adventure opening in 2011.

Fans of Disney's animated classic, The Little Mermaid, will journey under the sea to meet Ariel and her friends on an exciting new musical adventure. This new attraction will take guests through beautifully rendered scenes featuring classic songs from the popular animated feature. The attraction will be part of the expanded Fantasyland that was announced at the D23 Expo on Saturday by Walt Disney Parks and Resorts Chairman Jay Rasulo.
