The Araneta Center continues to provide quality and top-tier entertainment by bringing two of the much-awaited shows in the country to grace the Filipino audience this year.
On September 1 to 6, prepare to step into a world of wonder with Disney Live! Mickey’s Music Festival featuring Mickey and his pals along with Disney characters from Aladdin, The Little Mermaid, and Disney/Pixar’s Toy Story.
The 90-minute production features an irresistible lineup of more than 25 Disney stars, including Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Goofy; Ariel, Sebastian and Ursula; Jasmine, Aladdin and Genie; and Woody, Buzz and Jessie; singing and dancing to popular Disney hits remixed to rock, pop, reggae, hip-hop, country and more.
It’s going to be a frolicsome Disney jam session fit for the entire family, but what is sure to pique the interest of viewers is the venue where this spectacular show will be staged.
Kia Theater Opens
Remember the New Frontier Theater back in the 1960’s? Disney Live! Mickey’s Music Festival will be the first show this year to herald its modern-day reopening.
The soon-to-open theater, which is part of Araneta Center’s “extreme” transformation, will be renamed “Kia Theater” after a 5-year naming rights deal with Colombian Autocar Corporation (CAC), the assembler and exclusive distributor of Kia Motors vehicles in the Philippines.
As part of the deal, CAC will put Kia Motors’ moniker and logo and will be setting up a 304.96 square-meter Kia showroom inside the venue, among other inclusions.
The ultra-modern theater has a 2, 385 seating capacity, equipped with the latest in audio, visual and lighting technologies, which promises to elevate viewing experience to new levels.
It will also feature al-fresco dining restaurants, coffee shops and other retail brands along its perimeter and is poised to reclaim its title as the premier performing arts venue.
Merging classic with contemporary design, Kia Theater greets patrons with an elegant drop-off point that opens up to an expansive grand lobby fit for upscale events. A posh staircase conveys everyone to the picturesque Theater Lounge on the mezzanine floor, which can also be a perfect venue for meet and greet sessions with the stars before and after the show.
Disney On Ice skates back this Christmas with “Frozen”
Another reason to celebrate this upcoming Christmas season is the traditional staging of Disney on Ice at the Smart Araneta Coliseum from December 25 to January 3.
If you’ve seen Disney’s movie “Frozen” and sang along with its songs, but still are not ready to “let it go”, watch Disney On Ice Magical Ice Festival featuring your favorite Academy Award-winning and highest grossing animated film of all time.
Magical Ice Festival will follow the story of Anna, Elsa, Olaf, Kristoff, Sven, and the trolls across familiar landscapes from the animated movie.
It’s going to be an enchanting mix of royalty, also highlighting the stories of Disney characters from Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, and Tangled, with show-stopping segments and lively on-ice choreography.

Me and my kids haven’t been in disneyland. I think this is a good alternative. =)
I’ve been hearing a lot about KIA Theater that I’m getting curious about it. 🙂 It seems that the Frozen fever is still very much alive now as when it first started! 🙂
Wow! So many exciting activities for the entire family at the Smart Araneta Coliseum! I wish we could watch any of the shows that will be staged there this year.
wowwww! i would love to bring my daughter here
Exciting! I’m one of those moms na mas excited to watch the Disney On ice than my kid haha, unfortunately they’re not selling tickets yet.
Nice! kaya lang sayang, walang Disney shows here in Cebu 🙁
Oh a new Frontier Theater! That is one interesting news! 🙂 Araneta Center or Cubao has a different vibe that’s both old and new. Will visit the area again soon!
It’s going to be an exciting show for all the Mickey fans out there 🙂
Super excited about this. And great news about the new Kia Theater. Can’t wait until September rolls around.
We watched last year’s Disney Live and my son got a bit scared of the villains. I think he’ll enjoy this one because Toy Story is included. Will there be a giveaway for this? 🙂
We’ve been watching Disney Live for years. Looking forward to their staging of Frozen. My kids are gonna love that one for sure!
My kids have outgrown Mickey Mouse, too fast, too soon. They are now more into teener stuffs. Haizz, how time flies.
We have seen one in New Jersey, USA last December and my daughter really loved it she went gaga when the frozen cast appeared… I’d watch it over and over with her if I can… do they invite bloggers? Or atleast give discounts? hehe do let me know sis. Thanks.
wow, for families who haven’t been to Disneyland, this is a perfect alternative! I will check if the budget permits! hehehe..
wowowowow!!!! this is sooo exciting!
I wish I could join this one. ♥
Yay! Exciting!
This is super exciting! 🙂
hoping to join this with my kiddos. Disney shows usually have lessons to take home, i’m sure this one comes with a kid-friendly story plus loads of fun and entertainment my kids always get from disney shows.
I’m thinking of watching this with the girls. They love Mickey and Minnie Mouse 🙂
We’re so excited to watch the show!
