We’re ROARING into 2020 and back for another edition of What’s New in Disney’s Animal Kingdom!

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

The holiday crowds have yet to subside but we’re braving them to say JAMBO! to some New Year treats, construction updates, and new merchandise.

Animal Kingdom Food Updates

Discovery Island

Over at Creature Comforts, the New Year’s Celebration Cupcake replaced the Merry Menagerie cupcake. The New Year’s Celebration Cupcake was also available in Restaurantosaurus and  Pizzafari.

Creature Comforts has also replaced the Peppermint Mickey Brownie with the returning the Rose Gold Brownie.

We don’t expect the New Year’s Celebration Cupcake to last very long over there!

Asia

Ya’ll know how those line can be insane over at Thirsty River Bar & Trek Snacks. To help combat the issue, a Pop Up Bar had been set up once again.

The menu has been abbreviated since last but you can still grab a selection of Wine, Bottled Beer, and Non-Alcoholic Beverages.

The New Year may have already begun, but you can still pop bottles over in Restaurantosaurus Lounge where they are currently offering Champagne.

Animal Kingdom Construction Updates

Discovery Island

Colorful Kevin from “Up” is back to roaming around where the Merry Menagerie was located. While we saw her a few times throughout the holidays we’re sooo happy she’s back where she belongs.

Africa

Club 33’s Harambe House location is now open and welcoming members!

Club 33

Wildlife does a nice job of concealing the main entrance from the public walkway, giving members a little bit of privacy as they head up the gated ramp.
