Entertainment Calendar

[ww52]

Can anyone point me to a calendar of entertainment at the 4 parks? What I'm essentially looking for are bands and outdoor performances - not attractions that have lines and FPs etc.

For example, several bands at Epcot. We saw Baka Beyond many years ago, and Mo'Rockin in 2011. Loved them both. We saw a Beatles tribute band too many years ago.

I see there is a new band coming to Canada.

What about "Castle Shows?" We stumbled into a Mary Poppins show quite a few years ago.

Not sure if there is a comprehensive list/schedule, or how far in advance - and I'm sure it's subject to change. But it would add to the excitement/anticipation for our July trip to get some idea of what will be there in addition to the rides/attractions.

If you Google "Disney World entertainment calendar," you get this: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/en_CA/entertainment/

The weekly Times Guide is one of the more comprehensive “many things in one spot” type of documents, although it’s not all encompassing.

This website usually posts the new one each week: http://www.orlandoparksnews.com/p/weekly-walt-disney-world-times-guides.html?m=1

It’s worth a bookmark for reference.

Also here’s another website worth checking out when it comes to entertainment info as well: http://wdwent.com/

Hope that helps.

Thanks much!

Gosh, it's been too long since we've been there. But the Times Guide reminds me that (I think) the park brochures will list the entertainment as well (once we get there).

Also - excited to see that Raglan Road now has outdoor patio entertainment. We have a afternoon-evening scheduled at Disney Springs to include RR as well as the soon to be open Wine Bar.

That's what the "park brochures" are called, Times Guides....a guide to all the times of special things Those look like just a straight scan of the Times Guides each week....

I was surprised that at Disneyland this past week, DCA and DL had their times guides listed on the same paper, just each side was a separate park....I got super confused quite a few times trying to reference entertainment times...

There used to be a huge outdoor stage with a lot of seating just opposite the American Adventure building (WS at Epcot). We've seen several shows of different types over the years - character shows, bands.

I see nothing for that stage in the links - including the brochure for Epcot this week. has that stage been re purposed?

It’s still there. I believe there’s a Guardians of the Galaxy-themed show soon to start there for the summer.

Now I see - Guardians of the Galazys show.

The WDWENT link has a lot more than even the Disney site itself. For example, they list the World Music band at the Moroccan pavilion, though Disney's site does not mention them

Thanks mesaboy2 - we were posting at the same time.

WDWENT is to entertainment what Kenny the Pirate is to characters. Both sites have better info than Disney’s does.

WDWENT is now being bookmarked. Great information. Very old school HTML design - which actually has some appeal. It reminds me of when I dabbled in that.

Unfortunately, the band at the Moroccan (Matboukha Groove) ends it's stay before we arrive. I love listening to bands with different flavors of music - like Baka Beyond (Afro-Celt) that we saw many years ago.

But a lot of great information on characters and entertainment, especially in Epcot World showcase.

Morocco once had the most "Dad-joke" named band ever: Mo'rockin' (get it? More rocking = Moroccan).
