Disney & Pixar's Finding Nemo: A 70-Minute Family Musical

Just keep swimming, because Disney and Pixar's Finding Nemo is making a splash at Tuacahn Amphitheatre in Ivins, and this is a regional premiere you absolutely cannot miss. Running Friday, May 1, and Saturday, May 2, this brand new 70-minute family musical brings the underwater world of Marlin, Dory, and Nemo to life on one of the most spectacular outdoor stages in the country. Tuacahn needs no introduction to anyone who lives in or has visited Southern Utah. The red rock canyon amphitheatre near St. George is legendary for its stunning natural backdrop, and it's the perfect setting for a show that's all about the beauty and wonder of the ocean. Imagine the towering sandstone walls lit up as the stage transforms into the Great Barrier Reef, and you'll start to understand why seeing Finding Nemo at Tuacahn is going to be something truly special. This isn't a condensed retelling or a scaled-down production. It's a fully realized 70-minute musical designed specifically for families, featuring the beloved characters, the humor, and the heart that made the original film a classic. You'll follow Marlin on his epic journey across the ocean to find his son Nemo, with Dory's unforgettable optimism lighting the way. The songs, the costumes, the puppetry, and the staging all come together to create an immersive experience that will captivate kids and adults alike. The 70-minute runtime is worth highlighting because it's perfectly calibrated for younger audience members. Long enough to tell the full story with all the emotion and excitement intact, but not so long that little ones get restless. If you've ever hesitated to bring young kids to a live show, this production is built with them in mind. As a regional premiere, this is one of the first opportunities anywhere in the area to see Finding Nemo performed as a stage musical. That makes these May performances at Tuacahn extra special. You'll be among the first audiences in Southern Utah to experience this production, and if past Tuacahn premieres are any indication, the quality will be top-notch. Practical notes for your visit: Tuacahn is located at 1100 Tuacahn Drive in Ivins, just a short drive from St. George. Evening performances under the open sky can get cool, so bring a light blanket or jacket. The amphitheatre has excellent sightlines from virtually every seat, but if you want prime spots, grab your tickets early. Shows at Tuacahn sell well, and a Disney premiere will draw extra demand. Whether you're planning a family outing, a fun date night, or a memorable experience with grandkids, Finding Nemo at Tuacahn checks every box. The combination of a beloved story, world-class staging, and that one-of-a-kind red rock setting creates an evening you'll remember for years. May 1 and 2 at Tuacahn Amphitheatre. Grab your tickets, gather the family, and dive into the magic of Finding Nemo live on stage in Southern Utah.
