The Lion King Paris Tickets

About this experience

Book The Lion King Paris tickets for Disney's award-winning musical at Théâtre Mogador, the grand theatre near Opéra Garnier and Galeries Lafayette in the 9th arrondissement. Known in French as Le Roi Lion, the show tells Simba's story with giant puppets, colourful costumes and the famous songs, all performed in French. It lasts 2 hours 35 minutes including a 20-minute intermission, and you choose your exact seats on the seat map when you book. Why See The Lion King at Théâtre Mogador The Lion King has been seen by more than 114 million people worldwide and has won over 70 major awards, including six Tony Awards, two Olivier Awards and three Molières for the Paris production. Julie Taymor's direction and design bring the African savannah into the theatre: dancers become gazelles and birds, the giraffes stand around 5.5 metres (18 feet) tall, and the opening Circle of Life parade fills the aisles. Elton John's score is woven together with African rhythms and lyrics in Swahili and Zulu, so the music carries the show even if you speak little French. The story follows Simba, a young lion cub born to be king, who is forced into exile after his uncle Scar seizes the throne. With help from Timon, Pumbaa and Nala, he has to find the courage to return and take back his place. Favourite numbers include Hakuna Matata and I Just Can't Wait to Be King, sung in their French versions. French Language, English Surtitles and Choosing Your Seats The Lion King in Paris is performed in French. Live English surtitles are visible only from selected seats in the Corbeille, the first balcony, so if you want to follow the dialogue in English, pick those seats on the seat map rather than choosing on price alone. Because the story follows the Disney film closely, the songs and staging also help you follow along without surtitles. Théâtre Mogador has around 1,600 seats across the Orchestre (ground floor), the Corbeille and the upper Balcon. Who The Lion King Paris Is For The show is recommended for ages 6 and above, and children under 3 are not admitted to the theatre. It includes loud sound and lighting effects that may not suit everyone. The dress code is smart casual. Théâtre Mogador is wheelchair accessible, with wheelchair spaces, hearing assistance systems, accessible restrooms and special accessible performances, and guide dogs are allowed. If you need assistance, contact the theatre's accessibility service as soon as you receive your booking confirmation, quoting your order number.
