Okay, Disney, let’s not make a habit of this! Every once in a while, a fire alarm can hijack a perfectly normal day in Disney World and cause a little interruption. Recently, the Creations Shop in EPCOT was evacuated after the fire alarm went off, and a smoky refrigerator caused some commotion in Tomorrowland earlier this year. Even Disney World isn’t immune to problems!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge
During our visit to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, our day was put on pause!
At around 2:30PM, the fire alarm went off at Jambo House in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge. All guests and Cast Members were promptly evacuated and sent outside.
The hotel was evacuated
Though no official details were released on the cause of the alarm, we didn’t see any smoke. Guests remained outside for about ten minutes until the all-clear was given and everyone was allowed back inside.
Lots of guests and Cast Members were sent outside
We’ll continue to keep our eyes out for more updates, so stay tuned!
