Disney is making a splash with its new event set to celebrate one of its iconic films next month!
Journey of the Little Mermaid
The Little Mermaid has captivated hearts for years since its release on November 17th, 1989. Adults and kids of all ages have watched Ariel on screen, captivated by her journey and wishing that they could be part of her world. The story and the beloved songs that accompany it have solidified this film as a Disney classic. Now to celebrate the 35th anniversary, Disney is hosting a different kind of screening for the film: a “swim-in screening”!
On June 8th, 2024, D23 (The Official Disney Fan Club) & Street Food Cinema are presenting a screening of the film inside Hansen Dam Aquatic Center in Los Angeles. This new presentation will allow guests to channel their inner “little mermaid’ by “flipping their fins” in the country’s largest pool (it can fit 3,000 swimmers at once!). The event will also feature food trucks and snack stands, a special pre-screening presentation, and a commemorative event gift.
The Little Mermaid 35th Anniversary Celebration
Tickets are available for D23 members for $35 (+$5 Processing Fee) as well as general tickets available for $41 (+$5 Processing Fee). Tickets for this event can be purchased by D23 members who are allowed to reserve tickets for themselves and up to 5 guests. Important to note that members who purchased the tickets must be present with their physical or digital D23 membership card at the time of redemption, or guests will not be admitted to the event.
Children under 5 years old do not require a ticket to attend, however, only guests with D23 tickets are eligible to receive the commemorative event gift. The film begins at 8PM PT. But D23 Members get early entry to the Hansen Dam Aquatic Center starting at 5PM PT, and will also enjoy exclusive beach access and premium seating near the movie screen.
