As The Walt Disney Company releases the live action “The Little Mermaid,” Disney Parks are celebrating the release in the parks!

Meet Ariel at Disney Parks

Ariel from the all-new live-action story “The Little Mermaid” will be making special appearances at select Disney Parks this summer. Starting today, guests can meet Ariel at Walt Disney World Resort, Disneyland Resort and Disneyland Paris. 

Visit Walt Disney Presents at Disney’s Hollywood Studios and make your way through the queue to discover stunning concept art from the development of the new film – vibrant illustrations following Ariel’s journey from sea to land. Then step into the picturesque setting of Prince Eric’s shoreside castle, where you are invited to meet Ariel on a beautiful terrace with sweeping views of the sea, pictured above. When Ariel heads to Disneyland Resort, she’ll greet guests in Fantasyland near “it’s a small world.” Guests may discover Ariel where the land meets the sea in a location inspired by Eric’s castle library, complete with whozits and whatzits galore. And during her visit to Disneyland Paris, Ariel and her friends will invite guests to dance and play along with them in an unforgettable musical moment.

While you’re visiting Ariel at Walt Disney Presents, be sure to also check out special props from the film on display along with an exclusive sneak peek of the film.
