Prince Eric and Ariel from ‘The Little Mermaid’ Surprise Guests at Disney’s Hollywood Studios for Valentine’s Day

Yesterday, several villains surprised guests for Villaintine’s Day at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Today, in honor of Valentine’s Day, Prince Eric and Ariel from The Little Mermaid surprised guests with a pop-up meet-and-greet. This was part of a promotion for the new stage show The Little Mermaid: A Musical Adventure that debuts this summer in the park.

If you’ve been following along, that’s two stage shows that are set to debut at Disney’s Hollywood Studios this summer. The other, Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After, will also become part of the park’s exceptional stage show lineup. At the time of publication, Disney has not released a dedicated opening date for either entertainment offering.

Cast members also surprised guests visiting the park this morning with a handout featuring 6 Valentine’s Day cards. Here are a few photos released by Disney.
