The Legend of the Lion King is an attraction at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom based on the 1994 film. It replaced the Mickey Mouse Revue and Magic Journeys.

It opened on July 8, 1994 and closed in February 2002; it was replaced by Mickey's PhilharMagic.

Like the Mickey Mouse Revue, it had a preshow for the show, but it was hosted by Rafiki who told the guests the story of Simba, utilizing puppets and animation from the film, similar to the show Voyage of the Little Mermaid.

When the show closed, some of the puppets were sent to the Walt Disney Studios Park at Disneyland Paris for usage in the show Animagique. Others are now on display at Disney's Hollywood Studios park amongst the numerous film and theme park props in the Backlot Tour area.
