The Little Mermaid: 35th Anniversary Swim-in Screening with D23 & Street Food Cinema

Celebrate 35 years of undersea magic, classic characters, and unforgettable songs with D23: The Official Disney Fan Club and Street Food Cinema! We’re making a splash with this The Little Mermaid anniversary celebration, taking it to the waters of the Hansen Dam Aquatic Center!

Guests are invited to join the ultimate “swim-in” screening celebration, where all can channel their own “little mermaid”—enjoying the iconic movie as they flip their fins in the largest pool in the country!

But if you’re like Ariel, and you’re more interested in spending the day on land, D23 Members with tickets to this event will have reserved beach access and seating areas closest to the movie screen providing a “sand-sational” experience for you to share with your friends and family—no need to give up your voice to a sea witch either!

This special event will feature food trucks, a special pre-screening presentation, a commemorative event gift, and more fishy-fun surprises!

About The Little Mermaid: Disney’s beloved 1989 animated tale follows a beautiful young mermaid, Ariel (voiced by Disney Legend Jodi Benson), who is fascinated by the human world—much to the dismay of her father, King Triton. On one trip up to the ocean’s surface, she spies Prince Eric and falls hopelessly in love. Sebastian the crab is sent by the king to keep an eye on Ariel, though he cannot stop her from rescuing the prince during a storm. As part of a larger scheme to gain control of Triton’s realm, Ursula the sea witch plots to grant Ariel’s wish to be human in exchange for her beautiful voice. Once on land, Ariel and Prince Eric begin falling in love… but Ursula tricks him, and Ariel—human but now mute—is unable to warn him. Ultimately, Ariel and Eric together foil Ursula’s evil plans—saving the undersea kingdom and receiving Triton’s blessing. This film is rated G.
