Disneyland Paris: Simba lends his voice to the show The Lion King and the Rhythms of the Earth at the Frontierland Theater

The Lion King’s refrains echo through the Frontierland Theater at Disneyland Paris! In The Lion King and the Rhythms of the Earth, singers, dancers, acrobats and percussionists reimagine Simba’s adventures, not to mention Timon and Pumbaa’s philosophy. Here’s what to expect from this Disneyland Park spectacle and the practical information to catch it.

Simba is topping the bill at Disneyland Paris! At the Frontierland Theater, in Disneyland Park, The Lion King and the Rhythms of the Earth follows the young lion’s adventures in a show that blends music, dance and acrobatics. A family-friendly date back since June 13, 2026, to be shared with the whole family, where kids aren’t the only ones who know the songs by heart.

The Lion King's songs come alive on stage

For about thirty minutes, the show revisits Simba's story, surrounded by Nala, Mufasa, Scar and Rafiki. The film’s iconic numbers pace the scenes: The Circle of Life, I Just Can't Wait to Be King, Can You Feel the Love Tonight or Hakuna Matata. Timon and Pumbaa also come into play, with their own philosophy for taking life on the bright side.

On stage, singers, dancers, acrobats and percussionists share the spotlight. Voices converse with the percussion, the choreography mingles with acrobatic feats, and the costumes reimagine the world of the cartoon. Created specifically for Disneyland Paris, this stage adaptation of The Lion King blends reorchestrated music with live performances to trace the cub’s journey to the throne.
