Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Stacy.
Rivers of Light, the newest nighttime experience at
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park, combines spine-tingling music, floating sets, live performances and water displays to celebrate animals and nature.
Stacy, you are welcome to experience this show one of three ways:
1)
Standby Line, which is available to all Guests.
2)
FastPass+ Planning through My Disney Experience.
3)
Rivers of Light Dining Package, which offers a meal and reserved seating.
Currently, the show is offered on select nights with a duration of approximately 15 minutes. Please pick up a Times Guide in the park for the most up-to-date schedule or, contact General Inquiries (407) 939-2273.
Seating in the Rivers of Light Amphitheater is divided by the Discovery River, forming two ‘villages’ on two separate embankments called the Discovery River shoreline and The Serka Zong Marketplace. The Disney Imagineering details are influenced by sacred places in the Eastern World and inspired by Nepanese culture. Featuring the ever-present Lotus flower in Asian culture, as a dominating symbol representing enlightenment through décor and the show. Many objects of significant Nepanese meaning adorn this amphitheater, one of which is the welcoming pole with large parasol, representing compassion, protection and wisdom.
Namaste for now, Stacy.
