As expected...
Now that we have an opening date, heres somewhat of a long guide/recap from experience of how the queue worked with Aladdin and Frozen. Likely the whole process will remain the same.
Hyperion Courtyard Queue: The Hyperion queue usually opens an hour prior to the show but in the case of the first show for Frozen, it was actually 90 minutes before the show. Entrance to the queue is through the doors underneath the Hyperion Marquee. They will tell guests going in that you can't save spots in line and in the theater so you must have your entire group with you in line and when you go in. If you need to leave the queue for the bathroom or to get a drink or snack, ask an usher for a re-entry pass that will allow you back to your group in line. You can also request for the re-entry pass if you need to leave for the bathroom during the show. Theres no restrooms in the theater.
Theater Levels: For anyone unfamiliar with the theater, theres 3 levels of viewing in the Hyperion
Orchestra: Ground Level
Mezzanine: 2nd Level
Balcony: 3rd level
Best overall view of the theater would be the 2nd level and Orchestra. I would personally avoid Balcony unless you don't have a preference of seating plus its a longer climb up the stairs although Balcony if I remember has an escalator. You can also see about using the elevator though theres only one.
When the doors to the theater opens, all handicap gets in first followed by everyone else. But for Orchestra, the process is longer opposed to the load in for the 2nd and 3rd levels.
In Orchestra, the load in went in this order:
1st group (Aladdin): VIPs
1st group (Frozen): VIPs for the first and 3rd shows. 2nd show Dining Package guests entering the theater from the Hollywood Backlot.
2nd group (both Aladdin and Frozen): Handicap guests remaining in wheelchairs
2nd group (Frozen): VIPs for the 2nd show
3rd group: Handicap guests transferring to a normal theater seat
4th group: DAS and those with a "Bench pass"
Final group: Regular queue
Food and Drink: With Aladdin, eating and drinking wasn't allowed but when Frozen opened, the rule was lifted. They even added cupholders to the seats when Frozen opened. For a while they had vendors selling drinks (including beer and wine) in the Orchestra lobby.
Photography and Video: Video and picture taking is permitted provided that all external lighting (flash and video lighting) is turned off. Use of Tablets (example: iPads) for this purpose is prohibited however.This was repeated in the Courtyard by an Usher multiple times. I would advise lowering the screen brightness if you're using your phone or a DSLR. With a Mirrorless try to use viewfinder only and turn on the cameras or phones quiet or silent modes when taking pics or video.
Frequency of shows when scheduled: Aladdin ran with 4 shows per day. Frozen ran with 3 shows per day but briefly did 4 shows for a bit. I would guess with Rogers being 30 minutes, it could be 4 shows per day.

Once again Disneyland Paris gets rid of all its precious props (here the Vita-Ray Machine) as if the recently opened Avengers Campus wasn't in need of extra decors, especially the Stark Factory Restaurant that looks very bland... This item was taken from the MARVEL Super Heroes United Show (WDS)Rogers: The Musical will premiere June 30th. The show will be around 30 minutes long and run Tuesday through Saturday most weeks for a limited time.
A few details revealed -
"This production features a talented cast of singers and dancers telling the story of Steve Rogers – Captain America – joined by Peggy Carter, Nick Fury and select members of the Avengers. The musical will take the audience on a journey from Steve’s humble beginnings during World War II to becoming Captain America, leading the Avengers and beyond. It’s a classic tale of heroes, time travel, and romance, oh … and Nick Fury sings!
The show will be super powered by music, including “Save the City,” from the Disney+ series “Hawkeye”; “Star Spangled Man” from the film “Captain America: The First Avenger”; plus, five new original songs written just for “Rogers: The Musical” at the Disneyland Resort.
“Rogers: The Musical” will run approximately 30 minutes, from Tuesday through Saturday most weeks. Additional details including show dates and times, plus news about the merchandise and food and beverage offerings themed to “Rogers: The Musical” will be shared as opening day gets closer. Stay tuned to the Disney Parks Blog and @Disneyland social for more!"

The Stark Factory restaurant got the Hulkbuster suit, movie props and costumes, and the AMAZING Peggy Carter office. It is the opposite of bland or needing decor (IMO).

Apart from the Peggy Carter office and the Hulkbuster there's really not so much to see in the central and left part of the restaurant. Most of the props are contained within tiny cages...The Stark Factory restaurant got the Hulkbuster suit, movie props and costumes, and the AMAZING Peggy Carter office.

I see what you did there.That does look pretty stark.
That restaurant looks like something Six Flags would build and consider "themed".

Yeah, agree to disagree.
Let's try some better pics instead of one far away one at a bad angle...
(Hulkbuster)
(Black Panther and Black Widow costumes and props. Easter egg sign.)
(Peggy Carter office with a TON of Easter Eggs)
This place has terrific theming and is one of the places I most want to eat in the entire world because of it.

That "office" looks like one of those cheaply built sets that would be in a Three Stooges short that you were never supposed to look at because of all the slapstick going on in front of it.
Not a setting I've ever dreamed of eating food at, tbh.

I mean if you only take pics of the good things in there of course it’ll look good. There is plenty of ‘nothing’ in that restaurant. It’s not awful by any means but also is far from the pinnacle of theming.

And it's someplace I could spend ages in looking at all the details they added from Agent Carter, the films, etc. Absolutely love it.
The Hulkbuster suit looks incredible, too.
Different Easter Eggs for different folks.

I'm just so bored of easter eggs.

And I love everything the Imagineers have taken the time and thought to add to the parks from hidden mickeys to the Aurebesh jokes on the X-Wing in Star Trader to Melvin, Buff & Max still hanging around with Winnie the Pooh.

I know he is usually good about speaking to those who believe in Him, but I'm pretty sure he's not into California Adventure.

“Peter Pan Goes Wrong” is legitimately so good, though.
