Disneyland Cancels Zootopia Premiere Amid Hong Kong Tragedy
27 Nov
Summary
- Hong Kong Disneyland canceled Zootopia 2 premiere and fireworks show.
- The cancellations are in response to a deadly high-rise fire.
- Nearly 100 people have died in the Hong Kong blaze.
In response to a severe high-rise fire in Hong Kong, Hong Kong Disneyland has canceled several prominent events. The scheduled Zootopia 2 premiere, including a special screening for Magic Access members and an evening gala, has been called off. The park also canceled its nightly "Momentous: Party in the Night Sky" fireworks display out of respect for the ongoing tragedy.
The cancellations come as the death toll from the Wang Fuk Court complex fire has tragically risen, with preliminary reports indicating nearly 100 fatalities. Firefighting operations were nearing completion, with a focus shifting to search and rescue efforts for those still missing. Three individuals have been arrested in connection with the blaze, accused of gross negligence.
Details regarding rescheduled Zootopia 2 screening arrangements will be announced shortly. Hong Kong Disneyland expressed apologies for any inconvenience caused and appreciated public understanding during this somber period. Guests with valid tickets for canceled events may be eligible for revisit options.
