Shows in Disney's Animal Kingdom
Animal Kingdom has no parade and no fireworks, but it does have some of the best shows at Walt Disney World. You'll find the times in the My Disney Experience app.
Festival of the Lion King
In Festival of the Lion King in Africa, singers, dancers and acrobats celebrate the music of The Lion King, with huge floats and the audience seated all around. It's one of the most popular shows in the resort.
