    Hello Michael!

    Fantasmic! at Disney's Hollywood Studios has always been a must-see show for my son and me on our Walt Disney World vacations! Fantasmic! is a legendary tale of good and evil in Mickey's dreams! I also love the Festival of the Lion King at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park which shows the Circle of Life in a Broadway-style musical.

    The great news is that Fantasmic! is scheduled to return this year (2022)! I am so excited to see this incredible nighttime show again, as I am sure you are excited too! The date of Fantasmic's triumphant return has not been announced yet, only that it is returning this year. So it is possible that Fantasmic! will be showing during the time of your Walt Disney World vacation this year, but it is not guaranteed. I would recommend keeping an eye on the Disney Parks Blog for the official announcement of the return of Fantasmic!.

    The Festival of the Lion King currently has showings multiple times a day at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. This fantastic musical show is one of my favorite live shows in Walt Disney World, and I have lost track of how many times I have seen it.

    I hope you see Fantasmic! and the Festival of the Lion King on your next Walt Disney World vacation!
