We took a trip to Disney’s Animal Kingdom AND Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge to see what’s new!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
We love soaking in the awesome atmosphere at Disney’s Animal Kingdom! We wanted to see what all is new in the park since our last visit. Will there be more Halloween merch?? Additional construction progress?? You’re about to find out…here are all of the food, construction, and merchandise updates from Animal Kingdom AND Animal Kingdom Lodge!
Animal Kingdom Food Updates
Popcorn Carts
Yup, it’s definitely spooky season in Disney World! We spotted the return of the Purple Cauldron Popcorn Bucket at the popcorn cart near Finding Nemo — The Musical and at another cart in Africa near Zuri’s Sweets Shop.

We saw this bucket last year, but it’s now made it back into Animal Kingdom ahead of the holiday! The back of the bucket says “Happy Halloween” and the top lights up.

Animal Kingdom Construction Updates
A few weeks ago, we noticed that there was a new structure being built near the end of Kilimanjaro Safaris. And it looks like construction has continued on this new building.

First, we swung by Sanaa to see what changes had been made to the menu since we last ate there in June. We noticed several items have been removed from the menu since our previous visit, including the Durban Shrimp and Paneer Tikka, among others.

Here’s a look at the current lunch menu at Sanaa.

In the gift shop Johari Treasures, we spotted a fan-favorite snack available for sale — Zebra Domes! Guests can usually find Zebra Domes at Boma and The Mara, but since both of these restaurants are still currently closed, we were glad to see that we can still get our fix from the gift shop!
Zebra Domes
These are available in either their classic form or a gluten-free version. You can snag a pack of four for $4.29.

And with that, we concluded our visit to Animal Kingdom and Animal Kingdom Lodge!
