No injuries reported
The fire started Monday afternoon under one of the floats used at the show inspired by the Disney movie "The Lion King."
A Disney worker extinguished the blaze before firefighters got to the scene.
There were no injuries.
Guests received tickets for a different show after Monday's last show was canceled.
Wahler says the cause of the fire was electrical.
