Jungle Book Show to Debut with Animal Kingdom Nighttime Experiences on Memorial Day Weekend

With the delay of Rivers of Light, which was supposed to debut this week, Disney’s Animal Kingdom announced that other nighttime experiences will debut Memorial Day. While we wait for Rivers of Light, “Jungle Book: Alive with Magic” show will perform on Discover River

Here’s a rundown of the offerings debuting Memorial Day:

'The Jungle Book' Now Playing in Theaters

    • “Jungle Book: Alive with Magic” Show – For the summer, Discovery River will become the stage for a limited-engagement show inspired by Disney’s hit live-action film “The Jungle Book.” “Jungle Book: Alive with Magic” is filled with music and special effects that celebrates the new film and the classic songs, now infused with an Indian influence. It is unknown if this means Rivers of Light will not debut until after the summer.
