After more than two-and-a-half years on The Strip, Disney's THE LION KING at Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino will play its final performance in Las Vegas Friday, Dec. 30, 2011. Apart from the Broadway production, this marks the longest run of the show in any U.S. city. Locals and tourists do not want to miss the final chance to see the smash hit named "Best Show" in the Las Vegas Review-Journal's "Best of Las Vegas" awards.
Disney's THE LION KING at Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino welcomed energetic students and teachers from Walter V. Long Elementary to its matinee performance yesterday.
In honor of its upcoming 1,000th performance, Disney's THE LION KING at Mandalay Bay awarded Walter V. Long Elementary School 1,000 tickets at a surprise in-school assembly today with a heartwarming performance by LION KING cast members. Students from more than 80 Clark County elementary schools submitted essays on why their school deserves to see THE LION KING before the show's final performance on Dec. 30, and the winning essay came from Walter V. Long's Daniel Hernandez in Danielle Rayos' fifth grade class.
