Animal Kingdom is getting new entertainment to celebrate Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary.
“Disney KiteTails” will feature animal kites soaring high above Discovery River Amphitheater beginning October 1, 2021.

Performers will fly windcatchers and kites of all shapes and sizes, while out on the water elaborate three-dimensional kites – some stretching to 30 feet long – will depict Disney animal friends, including Simba, Zazu, Baloo and King Louie. These colorful creations will dance through the sky to the beat of favorite Disney songs.
