Princess Arena 

Contemporary and versatile, the Princess Arena provides the most technologically advanced Princess theater design. A stunning visual above the central stage can become part of the show. A radical ceiling accentuates the Arena's in-the-round configuration with soft curved walls that allude to the movement of the tide.
