Shanghai Disneyland received close to six million visitors between its opening in mid-June 2016 and year-end, Fan Xiping, chairman of Shanghai Shendi Group, Disney's Chinese partner, said on Monday.
Fan, who is also a member of the standing committee of the Shanghai Municipal Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, said 5.6 million people had visited Shanghai Disneyland by December 31, 2016.

Eighty percent of the visitors said they were "very satisfied" or "satisfied" with their experiences, according to a third party survey.
Meanwhile, Shanghai Disneyland Hotel and Toy Story Hotel reported up to 90 percent occupancy. The first-ever Mandarin production of "The Lion King" was staged over 220 times, making it the most-run Broadway musical in the Chinese mainland.
