Disney on Broadway Exhibit Returns to Epcot Festival of the Arts in 2026. The EPCOT International Festival of the Arts in 2026 will feature the return of the popular exhibit, “Once Upon A Stage: The Magic of Disney on Broadway.” The annual celebration of culinary, visual, and performing arts will run for 39 days, starting on Friday, January 16, and continuing through Monday, February 23, 2026.
Disney has announced the Disney On Broadway lineup this morning, and with that news came the return of the Disney On Broadway showcase at CommuniCore Hall at Epcot.
At CommuniCore Hall, experience the magic of Broadway both on and off the stage in this walkthrough exhibit celebrating over three decades of Disney on Broadway. Discover costumes and props from your favorite stage musicals, then venture behind the scenes to see how the classic animated films “The Lion King” and “Aladdin” were reimagined for the Broadway stage. The only ticket you’ll need to see these iconic props and costumes is your ticket to EPCOT!
