Work Underway for New Covered Seating Area Near Harambe Market at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

A new covered seating area is coming to the Harambe Market area in Disney’s Animal Kingdom! Construction on the seating area began this summer and we recently noticed roof decking has been added to the structure.

This new space is located amidst three dining spots: Tamu Tamu, Zuri’s Sweet Shop, and Harambe Market. Upon completion, guests dining at any of these locations will be able to utilize this seating area.

Since we saw the roof framework first go up, decking has been added. More themed paneling will be added over the decking later.


Disney’s Animal Kingdom is known as the hottest Walt Disney World theme park, primarily due to its predominantly outdoor setting. Therefore, the covered seating area will offer a welcome relief for guests.

Are you looking forward to more covered seating options at Animal Kingdom?
