Festival of the Lion King

Festival of the Lion King brings the familiar characters of the Disney animated classic film The Lion King from the movie screen to the stage .

This scheduled 30-minute big-as-Broadway live show combines the pageantry of a parade with a tribal celebration.

This is my favorite show at the Animal Kingdom.  It will keep adults and kids entertained.  It does have a story line but they incorporate so much more into the show (juggling, dancing, acrobats) that even the youngest child will love it.  I truly became a Disney “FAN” when I had children. Seeing it through their eyes really made me truly appreciate it.  Now I am officially “HOOKED”.

I do have to say though that while we were there we sat next to an older couple, by older I mean well into their 70’s. It was fun to watch them enjoy the show and believe me they did. They sang every song and danced throughout the entire 30 minutes. Just a little more of the Disney magic I guess! Don’t miss this! It’s really worth seeing!

I admit…It doesn’t take much to get me to the parks. Not much convincing is needed, no arm twisting and no begging! this past weekend all it took was “Hey Mom” lets go to Epcot and get a Funnel Cake?! hmmmmmm well ok! why not!

These can be found in a little booth near the American Pavilion. You can’t miss it just follow your nose! They start at $6 and go up as you choose your toppings. You can get powdered sugar, chocolate, ice cream ect.  We usually stick with just the powdered sugar but next time I may get daring and go for the chocolate! The deep fried ice cream is also on my list! Hey life is SHORT! and these are a MUST do!

You can’t help but be moved by this uniformed group. They perform with surprising precision. It’s like history comes alive! They perform at different times throughout the day, so be sure to check the Times Guide at Epcot to know exactly when you can catch it.

Step in time with a marvelous colonial marching band corp. A patriotic musical performace from the heart of American heritage. Yankee Doodle Dandy, God Bless American and many more are played out in time to the marching steps of brave men.
