Print Edition
THE Shanghai Disney Resort, which is gearing up for its grand opening on Thursday, has invited members of the local and international media to take part in the celebrations this week.
The festivities will include the global premiere of the first Mandarin production of the Broadway hit, “The Lion King.”
The opening ceremony will be broadcast live at 7:30pm on Wednesday on Dragon TV.
The two-hour event will feature special appearances by honorary ambassadors Sun Li, Lang Lang and Yao Ming along with performances and fireworks.
Shanghai Disney Resort will welcome its first guests from 12:00-10:00pm on June 16 after its official opening.
Guests interested in visiting the resort’s theme park, Shanghai Disneyland, on June 16 must have a ticket before arriving, as tickets for this date will not be sold on site. Tickets are still available for other dates throughout the summer and can be purchased at www.shanghaidisneyresort.com or through official travel partners.
Disneytown will be shut today and operating times for public transportation to and from the resort will vary between June 14 and 16. Details will be publicized on the resort’s official Weibo (SHdisneyresort) and Wechat (ShanghaiDisneyResort) accounts. The resort reminds visitors to check before making plans to visit the resort during that time.
