For those among us who grew up with and were nourished on 90s Disney animated films, the dulcet tones and infectious melodies penned by legends such as Alan Menken, Jerry Goldsmith, and Hans Zimmer are no doubt seared into our brains. It’s not every day that you get a chance to have your ears blessed in person by the angelic voice of a Disney princess, but that’s exactly what Hongkongers get to look forward to this coming January: Lea Salonga, the singing voice for Aladdin’s Jasmine and Mulan’s eponymous heroine, will return to Hong Kong to perform for one night only!
Be still, our beating hearts – this is going to an epic concert. A night of enchantment and nostalgia awaits at Hong Kong Disneyland Resort as part of its extensive 20th anniversary celebration. Salonga’s one-night-only ‘Disney Legend Live in Concert’ will take place on January 10, 2026 under the dazzling lights of the Castle of Magical Dreams, a reprise of two decades earlier when she sang at Hong Kong Disneyland Resort’s grand opening.
As the singer behind Jasmine and Mulan, Salonga’s spellbinding voice has captivated the hearts of countless fans the world over, making this a truly special occasion for Disney fans in Hong Kong. Salonga is a legendary figure even outside of her Disney singing roles, having originated the role of Kim in Miss Saigon in the West End and on Broadway, performed in Les Misérables and Flower Drum Song, and released several award-winning recording albums. She is the first Asian actress to win a Tony Award, and the ‘Pride of the Philippines’ also has a Laurence Olivier Award and two Grammy Award nominations. In 2011, Salonga was officially named a Disney Legend for her treasured work!
During the concert, the singer will take Disney fans on a musical journey through the enchanting stories of Disney Princesses and Queens, accompanied by the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra and the Hong Kong Disneyland Band. Expect to hear timeless Disney classics from the animated films, and get ready for special appearances by six beloved Disney characters: Jasmine, Mulan, Tiana, Elsa, Cinderella, and Pocahontas!
Standard and VIP Seating Area Passes are now available for purchase, with a Standard Seating Area Pass costing $740 and a VIP Seating Area Pass costing $980. Book your tickets through Hong Kong Disneyland Resort’s official website now before they sell out.
Remember to pack the tissues – no promises we won’t be bawling our eyes out right alongside you when she bursts into ‘A Whole New World’ and ‘Reflection’!
