A new nighttime special event will kick off in Disney’s Animal Kingdom this summer. Circle of Flavors: Harambe at Night is a new “dining adventure” beginning on July 24, 2019!
Circle of Flavors: Harambe at Night is created to honor “some of the most majestic and endangered African animals and celebrating the beloved story of The Lion King.” This family-friendly progressive dining experience will draw inspiration from African cultures and animals.
The evening begins with a welcome reception at the Wildlife Express Train Station, then it’s off to the train station at Rafiki’s Planet Watch, with a final stop at Harambe Market. The evening will feature “sights, sounds, and scrumptious flavors in celebration of The Lion King and the Big Five game animals: the African elephant, the rhinoceros, the Cape buffalo, the leopard, and our host animal, the lion.”
The Wildlife Express Train Station is where you’ll enjoy light hors d’oeuvres, snacks, and beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) accompanied by acoustic music. After the train ride to Rafiki’s Planet Watch, more light bites and drinks await, and Timon and Rafiki will be available for character greetings and interactive activities.
The stop at Harambe Market will feature the main dining event, with the marketplace presenting an array of sweet and savory dishes paired with unique beverages.
Reservations for Circle of Flavors: Harambe at Night will be available starting April 3rd for dates beginning July 24, 2019, and can be made online or by calling 407-WDW-DINE. (Note that Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club Members can book starting April 2nd by calling 407-WDW-DINE.) Pricing is $125 plus tax for adults and $99 plus tax for children ages 3-9 and separate park admission is required.
