The film, a cherished childhood classic, has inspired several adaptations, including the 1998 Tony Award-winning Broadway musical and a 2019 live-action film.

The Hollywood Bowl's celebration will feature a full orchestra and original pieces from the Broadway show, including some of the original musical numbers, set designs, costumes, and puppetry.

Fans can immerse themselves in Han Zimmer's original score with classic hits such as Can You Feel The Love Tonight, Circle of Life, and Hakuna Matata.

This 30-year celebration arrives in anticipation of a prequel titled Mufasa: The Lion King which will be arriving at the end of the year.
