Despite the event’s popularity, as Jollywood Nights enters its third year, Disney has started to make some changes to help improve the event.
Last year, Disney made significant changes after guests complained about limited capacity for some events and waiting in hour-long lines for some meet-and-greets. However, this year’s changes are minor in comparison but will help to make the event even better for guests.
Disney has already announced that 25 new food items will be added to Jollywood Nights’ extensive food and drink offerings. Now, Disney has made more changes, adding two new shows to the lineup.
This week, Disney confirmed via its website that Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After and The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure will be available to guests during the after-hours party.
According to Disney World’s website, Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After will be showing at 5:50, 6:50, 7:50, 8:50, and 9:50 on Jollywood Nights. The earlier shows will be while the park is still open, but Jollywood guests can still enter the park.
The Little Mermaid– A Musical Adventure will be playing at 6, 6:40, 8, 8:40, and 9:20. Again, the first two shows are while the park is open, but Jollywood Nights ticket holders can still enter Hollywood Studios.
While these two shows will most likely not be changed for Jollywood Nights, the after-hours party does offer two exclusive shows just for ticket holders: The Nightmare Before Christmas and The Muppets.
The addition of these two shows will help to make up for the closure of Muppet Vision 3D and the Muppets Courtyard, as that area makes the change to the Monsters, Inc. Land.
With Disney continually changing, this year’s Jollywood Nights will surely make for a memorable experience.
