A four-week Vancouver run of Disney’s The Lion King<\/em> started Wednesday night (Aug. 20) in a return of one of the most beloved shows ever to grace the stage.<\/p>\n

Until Sept. 14, Broadway Across Canada will bring 32 performances of the hit musical to Queen Elizabeth Theatre in a very big season-ending production for the company.<\/p>\n

Tickets are scarce for matinee and evening show times, with some fetching close to $400 on the resale market.<\/p>\n

During 10,000-plus performances in North American cities over 22 years, close to 23 million people have witnessed the theatrical magic of Disney’s The Lion King<\/em>, full of jaw-dropping visuals and unforgettable music by Elton John and Tim Rice. The story is set in the Serengeti where birds swoop, gazelles leap and Pride Rock emerges from the mist.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Recommended for kids six and older, the award-winning show runs two hours, 30 minutes with one intermission.<\/p>\n

In Vancouver, The Lion King<\/em> plays Tuesday through Friday at 7:30 p.m., Saturday at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., and Sunday at 1 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. There's also a 2 p.m. matinee Thursday, Aug. 21. Visit vancouver.broadway.com<\/a> for show and ticket details.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, Broadway Across Canada's next season of shows (2025-26)<\/a> include MJ, Moulin Rouge, Les Misérables, Mamma Mia!<\/em> and Clue<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Running the final week of November 2025, MJ<\/em> documents the making of Michael Jackson's 1992 Dangerous world tour.<\/p>\n

Up next, in January 2026, is Moulin Rouge<\/em>, Baz Luhrmann’s revolutionary film come to life onstage.<\/p>\n

Another musical set in France, the classic Les Misérables<\/em> returns to the QE Theatre in the last half of March 2026, followed by the family fun of the ABBA-powered Mamma Mia! <\/em>(late-May dates) and the game-inspired musical-mystery Clue<\/em> (July\/August 2026).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
