Discover the Heartbeat of New Orleans, Disneyland’s Living Mural
A Visual and Musical Celebration
This new entertainment offering introduces guests to a mischievous little frog from the bayou. The sounds of distant jazz lure him toward New Orleans. As the music pulses through the air, projections animate his journey across the riverbanks. The result is a joyful celebration of the culture and heart that define New Orleans.
Disney Live Entertainment collaborated with artists and musicians to create original visuals and a dynamic jazz score. These elements infuse the riverfront with energy and rhythm. The colorful projections enhance the storytelling, capturing the timeless charm of the Crescent City.
Enhancing the Magic on the Rivers of America
The Heartbeat of New Orleans adds to the lively atmosphere along the Rivers of America. Since July, Queenie and the Jambalaya Jazz Band have performed nightly nearby. This new show offers a beautiful experience while Fantasmic! remains on pause.
Evening visitors strolling through New Orleans Square will enjoy a one-of-a-kind display. It honors the spirit of New Orleans and showcases Disney’s commitment to innovation and immersive storytelling.
