Tree of Life in Animal Kingdom Refurbishment to Begin on January 15th

The Tree of Life in Animal Kingdom closed today to undergo a refurbishment. The icon of Disney’s Animal Kingdom will be getting a new paint job. There’s no set date for when this refurbishment will be completed.

While the tree is being repainted, guests may see some scaffolding and other structures related to the job. Some of the walking trails around the Tree of Life might also be temporarily closed to guests. However, most of the painting is likely to happen at night after the park is closed.

The Disney World website describes the Tree of Life as:

“The Tree of Life honors animals and the place they all share in the great Circle of Life.

At 145 feet tall, the massive tree towers over the land. Marvel at its gnarled roots and outstretched branches, then step closer to see the shapes of over 300 animals carved into the tree.

It’s an epic visual symbol of the diversity, beauty and interconnected nature of Earth’s creatures.”
