Portland is set to welcome back The Lion King when Disney’s acclaimed musical takes the stage for a 1 p.m. matinee at Keller Auditorium on September 28, 2025. The show features the unforgettable music of Elton John and Tim Rice, Julie Taymor’s innovative costumes, and a lively pride-lands parade that moves through the aisles.
This beloved production has thrilled over 110 million theatergoers worldwide.
Tickets for the matinee are on sale now at the Keller Auditorium box office and online via ScoreBig. ScoreBig offers no hidden fees, helping families manage costs.

Portland last hosted The Lion King in 2021, when the tour broke box-office records. The 2025 return promises to bring back iconic scenes such as the “Circle of Life” sunrise, the intense stampede, and the popular sidekicks Timon and Pumbaa.
With 3,000 seats and excellent sightlines, Keller Auditorium ensures every mask, puppet, and acrobatic move is clearly visible to the audience.
Because matinees are limited, tickets for the September 28 show are expected to sell fast. Families, Disney fans, and theater lovers are encouraged to arrive early to enjoy themed snacks and take photos in the lobby before experiencing one of Broadway’s most visually stunning shows.
