Thanks for dropping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Jeffery!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom is my favorite park and I am happy to help you have the most magical experience possible during your visit. The very best view for
Rivers of Light: We Are One is found in the amphitheater, primarily because it is a forward facing show. Views from other locations can be impeded and the quality of the sound and effects will be diminished as they are directed towards the amphitheater. You can still enjoy the show from other locations, just know the very best spot to be is in the amphitheater. If you choose to view Rivers of Light: We Are One from the
Flame Tree Barbecue seating area, you will want to ensure that the restaurant is open during the show time, as often it is already closed, making the seating area no longer available.
You have a few options for seating in the amphitheater for Rivers of Light: We Are One. The first option would be to use a
FastPass+ selection. The second option would be to queue in the regular stand-by line. Since seating is limited, you will want to arrive quite early. The third option, and the option I prefer to use, is to book a
Rivers of Light: We Are One Dining Package. With this package you will enjoy a meal at either
Tusker House Restaurant or
Tiffins Restaurant and then experience premium seating for Rivers of Light: We Are One. My favorite option is Tusker House Restaurant, with a delicious buffet and only one table-service entitlement required when using the
Disney Dining Plan or
Deluxe Dining Plan.
Whichever option you choose, I hope that you have an incredible visit to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park and a magical vacation! Please stop back by if we can help answer any more of your vacation questions.
