Disney on Broadway at Epcot Festival of the Arts 2026 | Photo tour
The Disney on Broadway exhibit at Epcot is expanded inside CommuniCore Hall for 2026’s Festival of the Arts.
Epcot International Festival of the Arts 2026 is ongoing from Jan. 16 – Feb. 23 at Walt Disney World near Orlando, Fla., with new art installations, concert performances, exclusive merchandise (like the ever-popular Figment popcorn bucket), and the return of a Disney on Broadway exhibit, greatly expanded for 2026.
CommuniCore Hall
The Disney on Broadway museum-style exhibit is titled “Once Upon a Stage” and can be found inside CommuniCore Hall, located in the World Celebration section of Epcot behind Spaceship Earth.
This year’s exhibit even begins outside, with a display of the giant magic lamp that previously adorned the marquee of the New Amsterdam Theatre in New York City for the “Aladdin” Broadway musical.
Once inside CommuniCore Hall, guests will find costumes and props celebrating the many musicals of Disney on Broadway over the years.
‘The Lion King’
From “The Lion King” guests can see costumes for Simba, Mufasa, Scar, Sarabi, Rafiki, and many of the various animals of the Pride Lands, including a few puppets.
‘Beauty and the Beast’
From the “Beauty and the Best” Broadway musical, Epcot displays quite a few dresses worn by Belle in the Disney show.
Guests can also pose for a photo-op with the Beast’s rose.
‘Frozen’
From the Broadway adaptation of “Frozen,” Epcot guests can look at Kristoff’s costume, the huge reindeer Sven puppet, and an Olaf prop from the beginning of the story when Anna and Elsa first imagine the snowman.
Backstage setups
Several dioramas in the Disney on Broadway exhibit at Epcot depict “backstage” setups, complete with stage equipment and various desk acutrements of production members.
