This is exciting news. Where is the Sunset Showcase?

My understanding is that Sunset Showcase is the location of the former Lightning McQueen show, beside Rock 'n Roller Coaster.

Does anyone reckon there'll be previews for either new show? Passholders, DVC, 33 members, DVC... etc?

Absolutely LOVED the Mickey's House Of Villains Halloween special growing up so this show right up my alley. This looks cool & promising, really happy to see more Villains-themed attractions/shows popping up at WDW.

so happy that this AND the new Little Mermaid show will be open during our visit - we leave on the 29th so these shows are must do's for us.

Great timing! Our Epic Universe trip ends on May 26th. We can head right over to Disney instead of flying home.

Is this the beginning date of a show that continues on, or is it just for summer? They mention summer a few times. Edited to add if it says in the article, apologies. I am walking and reading, which is not a good idea.

 

[scrappinginontario]

This is a new, continual show. No end date that we are aware of.

That settles it, then. I'm definitely getting a 3 day park hopper for my solo trip in November! I don't usually go to the Studios, but VILLAINS!!!

Is there any chance of them doing 'previews' or starting the shows before the official release date?

They may do some soft openings but I think it’s too late to offer official previews as this show opens in less than 3 weeks.

 

[HopperFan]

Us, too! I'm so excited. Cruella is my absolute favorite!

Lifelong Cruella fan! so much so my grandmom name is "Ella" When they are older I'll explain but never too young to train them to be Disney (and Villain) fans!!!

5/27 just happens to be our first scheduled HS day so I’ll try to report back. I have never managed to be there for an opening and I am kind of dreading what the lines will look like to get into that first show. We may honestly just try to catch one of the later showings but I’m not sure it will calm down all day at all.
