The Disney on Broadway Concert Series 2027 lineup is out, and it's a big one for the 10th anniversary. Six pairings, including Broadway's original Elsa, Mary Poppins and Tarzan, play America Gardens Theatre at EPCOT from Jan. 15 to March 1, 2027, three shows a night, with a Newsies finale and dining packages opening Dec. 3.
The 10th Anniversary Disney on Broadway Concert Series Lineup
If you love Broadway, this is your sign to plan a winter trip to Walt Disney World. The Disney on Broadway Concert Series is back for its 10th year at the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts, and Disney just posted the full schedule.
Six pairings split the run, and six of the twelve performers are making their Festival debut. Each pairing gets about a week of nights, and the series closes with a three-night Newsies celebration.
The festival itself got longer too. Disney extended the 2027 Festival of the Arts by a week, so it now runs Jan. 15 to March 1, 2027, which lines up exactly with the concert dates. The concerts are included with EPCOT admission.

Show Times, Seating and Dining Packages
Every concert night has three performances at America Gardens Theatre in the American Adventure pavilion, at 5:15, 6:30 and 7:45 p.m.
Seating is included with park admission, which also means the big names fill up. The sure thing is a Disney on Broadway Concert Series Dining Package, which pairs a meal at a participating EPCOT restaurant with guaranteed seating at a same-day concert. Booking opens Thursday, Dec. 3. Disney hasn't posted the restaurant list or prices yet.

How to Pick Your Dates Around Your Favorite Broadway Star
Since pairings alternate nights, a long weekend can catch two different shows. Friday, Jan. 15 and Saturday, Jan. 16 get you the Genie and Mary Poppins back to back. The same trick works on Jan. 29 and 30 (Adam Pascal and Sherie Rene Scott, then Sierra Boggess and Norm Lewis) and Feb. 12 and 13 (Kara Lindsay and Mason Reeves, then Caissie Levy and Ryan McCartan).
A few dates to know before you book:
- Holiday weekends. MLK Day (Jan. 18) and Presidents' Day (Feb. 15) both land on concert nights, and parks run busier.
- Valentine's Day. Kara Lindsay and Mason Reeves have Feb. 14.
- The finale. Newsies fans want Feb. 27 to March 1, the last three nights of the festival.
- Dec. 3. Set a reminder if you want guaranteed seats.
