Rafiki's Planet Watch is Back July 11th With a New Animation Experience

Earlier this year we announced that the reopening of Rafiki’s Planet Watch, Affection Section and the Wildlife Express Train was coming this summer! Today Disney announced it will opening July 11th with an all-new additional experience “drawing on our rich heritage of wildlife animation, inspired by Walt Disney’s own passion for ensuring his animators could develop realistic characters and settings by spending time with animals.”- Disney

In honor of our celebration of Disney’s “The Lion King,” Disney will  be launching The Animation Experience at Conservation Station, offering guests at Disney’s Animal Kingdom  the opportunity to learn how live animals have inspired some of the most iconic characters from this beloved “tail.” You’ll learn more about some of the animals who call our park home and then have the chance to create a personalized piece of Disney art through an instructor-led animation class.

Characters from “The Lion King” will be the stars of The Animation Experience, which will start when Rafiki’s Planet Watch reopens on July 11. You’ll learn how to draw Simba, Zazu, Pumbaa, Timon and more. Each session will be different so be sure to visit often to complete the collection. Disney FastPass+ Service will be offered for the experience, and you can make those selections starting later today.
