Disney shows at Magic Kingdom set to end due to budget cuts

Orlando, Fla. — 2018 had its fair share of hardships for the Most Magical Place on Earth due to budget cuts, and this year, we've learned that more cutbacks are expected to roll out, starting at the Magic Kingdom.

According to WDWNews Today, The Royal Majesty Makers, which feature retired knight Sir Sterling along with others will have their final performances in Fantasyland near the start of October. Right now, the calendars for their show only lasts through September.

Another show scheduled to end around the same time is "The Muppets Present...Great Moments in American History" over in Liberty Square. There are also rumors that the street parade will be scaled back to just two performances a day once the cuts are in place.

Other scheduled cuts include Lightning McQueen's Pit Crew over at Lightning McQueen's Racing Academy at Hollywood Studios.

Since 2018, nearly 9 different entertainment locations were affected by budget cuts, including the Talking Mickey at Town Square Theater and Jack Sparrow's Pirate Tutorial. Only time will tell how much more will be cut for the remainder of this year.
