The show originally premiered at the Premiere Theater in the Streets of America section of Disney's Hollywood Studios during the 2014 Frozen Summer Fun event on July 5, 2014.[4] The show moved into its current location at the Hyperion Theater in Echo Lake on June 17, 2015,[1] the former home of The American Idol Experience.
On July 25, 2020, since Walt Disney World reopened due to COVID-19 pandemic, all stage shows such as Finding Nemo - The Musical, Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular!, Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage, and Festival of the Lion King have not returned due to a dispute between the Actors' Equity Association and Walt Disney World.[5]
On October 5, 2020, For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-along Celebration reopened in Disney's Hollywood Studios.[6]
Disney California Adventure version[]
On January 7, 2015, the Muppet*Vision 3D theater at Disney California Adventure began operating as the Crown Jewel Theater and presented the show as part of the park's "Frozen Fun" event.[7] Although the event officially ended on May 15, 2015, the venue held the Frozen sing-along show until April 17, 2016. The theater was then renamed the Sunset Showcase Theater with a movie preview in May 2016 and Mickey's PhilharMagic, a 4D film attraction which opened on April 26, 2019.[2][8]
Disneyland Paris version[]
The stage is located in The Chaparral Theater in Frontierland under the name Chantons La Reine des Neiges, and is the first version in which Olaf appears. It ran from June 1 to September 13, 2015 as the summer event,[9] but it was scheduled to return on November 14, as part of the Christmas event. However, due to the Paris attacks on November 13, both Disneyland Paris and Walt Disney Studios Park were closed from November 14 until November 18.[10]
Hong Kong Disneyland version[]
Hong Kong Disneyland features an almost identical show, named simply “Frozen” Festival Show.[11] The stage is located in the “Black Box” space known as "The Pavilion", between Adventureland and Grizzly Gulch, also the former home of "The Revenge of the Headless Horseman", an exclusive walk-through attraction for the Haunted Halloween event from 2011-2014. It ran from June 11, 2015. Although the event officially ended on August 30, the show continued until October 4.
The stage is located in Evergreen Playhouse in Fantasyland.[12] This was the first Frozen sing-along show that would not open for a seasonal event. As of November 2019, it now features songs from the sequel.
Trivia[]
During In Summer, sometimes random audience members yell out "puddle!", which causes the people onstage to get defensive at that remark, even jokingly yelling lines like "If you said 'puddle,' GET OUT!!" (The actors were just kidding, of course).
