Walt Disney Imagineering Files Permit for New Marquee at The Little Mermaid Show in Disney's Hollywood Studios

Posted: Tuesday October 15, 2024 1:!5pm ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Walt Disney Imagineering has filed a new construction permit for The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure, the upcoming reimagined show set to debut at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World.

The permit is for installing a new marquee, and has been assigned to Design Communications Ltd., a company known for its expertise in designing and fabricating custom signage for high-profile clients.

The original signage is being replaced for the new 'The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure' show at Walt Disney World

The new Little Mermaid show is expected to feature cutting-edge set designs, immersive special effects, and new interpretations of beloved musical numbers like Part of Your World and Poor Unfortunate Souls. While the show itself has been delayed until summer 2025, the permit suggests Disney continues to progress on the project, including the exterior theming.

More updates are expected as the summer 2025 opening of The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure draws closer, and guests can keep an eye out for more changes in the area as the project continues to develop.

I wish they'd just make it an enclosed waiting area. That's be nice. (In the long run when the hype dies down)

I’m so excited for this one! Going in November, just me and my 10 year old. She does not like big rides. So our day usually consists of Toy Story Mania, Alien Saucers and Runaway Railway 😂 We love the B&B show and the Frozen show. It’s great we will now have this and Villains show as well. And Fantasmic of course. We can enter mid morning and still have a full day!

Please open some of the shops attached to this building so this area stops looking like a dead mall
