food IS a theme park
2026 is rolling along, and I can’t believe we’re already almost in April. For us Disney World fans, that’s pretty awesome because there’s a LOT coming to Disney World in April and beyond.

An attraction that we’ve been desperate to reopen is finally getting its time to shine; a rare event is coming back to Animal Kingdom, and more is coming in April 2026.
Put on your snazziest explorer hat and practice your best wildlife calls — Disney’s Animal Kingdom is celebrating its 25th Anniversary (and Earth Day). We’ve been enjoying allllllll the Earth Day festivities, including a new Moana character meet and greet and a new popcorn bucket.
We’re having a BLAST at Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Now, we’re back to talk about an April 22nd, 2023-EXCLUSIVE!
Recently, the HUGE Magic Kingdom 50th Anniversary celebration concluded its 18-month run in Disney World, but now it’s another park’s turn to enjoy a BIG milestone! April 22nd, also known as Earth Day, marks the 25th Anniversary of Disney’s Animal Kingdom’s grand opening. And no, the Tree of Life is not going to be decorated like a birthday cake. Sorry.
Happy Earth Day from Animal Kingdom!
Around the parks and resorts, Earth Day is a pretty big deal — but Disney’s Animal Kingdom goes ALL OUT with rare characters, special treats, and more. Come with us to check out the Earth Day festivities and celebrate Animal Kingdom’s birthday!
It’s an exciting time to be at Disney’s Animal Kingdom! In preparation for Earth Day, Disney has been surprising guests with some RARE character sightings around the park. Last year, we met Gypsy from A Bug’s Life and Kenai and Koda from Brother Bear!
Happy Earth Day from Animal Kingdom!
We can hardly wait any longer to see who makes an appearance this year, so let’s take a look!
Earth Day has ARRIVED in Disney World, and a great place to celebrate nature and animals is Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge! Disney celebrates holidays big and small, including Earth Day, with specialty treats and more.
Animal Kingdom Lodge is STUNNING!
Today, we’re headed to The Mara in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge to try a FUN new treat! WALL-E fans, you’re gonna like this one. 🌱
It can be pretty hard to keep up with all of the changes happening in Disney World.

But that’s why we’re here! To make sure that you never miss an important Disney World update! There’s always something up in the parks, and we’re here to tell you everything that’s going to be different in the Disney World this April!
Birthdays in Disney World are a pretty big deal. You can get a free birthday button, eat lots of cake, and receive birthday wishes from complete strangers — talk about special treatment! Back on October 1st, we celebrated the Magic Kingdom’s 50th Anniversary, but on April 22nd, (which also happens to be Earth Day), it will be time to wish a happy birthday to Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom is a STUNNING park!
Of course, Disney tends to roll out the red carpet during a big birthday celebration, so we’re expecting some exclusive merchandise, tasty treats, and maybe a photo op or two; you never know what you might see! Now, Disney just released the full list of special snacks arriving at Disney’s Animal Kingdom for Earth Day. Let’s take a look!
Happy Earth Week, DFB friends!
Animal Kingdom’s Tree of Life
Disney’s Animal Kingdom has been celebrating all month long with sweet treats, special experiences, and visits from rare characters. We even found a new beer! But if you just can’t get enough of Earth Week, there’s a new photo spot where you can mark the occasion.
We’re just a few days away from Earth Day, and celebrations at Disney’s Animal Kingdom are now in full swing!
We 🌍 Earth Day
We stopped by the park today to check out the happenings and were excited to see some unexpected friends roaming (or should we say floating?) around!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
