Disney have announced details on the brand new nighttime experiences coming to Walt Disney World’s Animal Kingdom later this month.  From May 27th, the Tree of Life will be brought to life each night by magical fireflies that reveal colorful stories of wonder and enchantment along with other amazing sights at the tree.

The Kilimanjaro Safaris will also begin their new nighttime experiences and the village of Harambe in Africa will become the place to enjoy “Wildlife Parti” and the spirited community of Discovery Island will come together to celebrate their love of the natural world with the Discovery Island Carnivale.

Then one day later, on May 28th, The Jungle Book: Alive with Magic live show will debut at the park.  Which will take place on the Discovery River, which will awaken at night and become a stunning stage for performances of the limited-engagement show The Jungle Book: Alive with Magic, inspired by the hit live-action film Disney’s The Jungle Book. Shows will feature memorable moments from the film, including the iconic Shere Khan, and will be filled with music and special effects that celebrate the movie and classic songs, infused with an Indian influence.

    If I could, I would live in Animal Kingdom. Every time I’m on the safari, I wonder what Walt would think of what the people he inspired had accomplished with that park.
