A Major Lightning Lane CHANGE Starts at Disney's Animal Kingdom Soon

Oh, you thought you mastered the art of Disney World’s skip-the-line service? You finally memorized all the rides included in the Lightning Lane Multi Pass? Think again! A big change is coming to Lightning Lane Multi Pass at Disney’s Animal Kingdom this month, and we have all the new details you need to know before your trip.

Tree of Life in Disney’s Animal Kingdom

The newest addition to Animal Kingdom, Zootopia: Better Zoogether!, is almost here (and we got a special preview!). With a new attraction coming to the park, that means the way you plan your day could be different now.

Who’s ready to celebrate Zoogether Day? The brand-new show, Zootopia: Better Zoogether, is joining Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and we’re so excited. The show is in the Tree of Life theatre, where “It’s Tough to Be a Bug” used to be, and it will open on November 7th.

We got the chance to see the new show already and shared all our thoughts and alllll the details. We have been eagerly awaiting the opening of this new show since it was announced back in 2023, so getting to preview it before its official opening date was amazing!

We love the animatronic!

We’re not the only ones thrilled about this new attraction; tons of Disney fans will be rushing to Animal Kingdom to check it out. You know what that means…busy crowds and long lines at this brand-new show!

Zootopia: Better Zoogether!

One of the best ways to make the most of your day at Disney World is to buy the Lightning Lane Multi Pass, which lets you “skip the line” at several Disney World rides. When buying it for Animal Kingdom, there are only a few attractions currently open and part of the Multi Pass service, especially since Flight of Passage isn’t included (arguably Animal Kingdom’s most popular ride). Well, Lightning Lane Multi Pass is about to change as a new attraction is added to that list.

Disney had already announced that Zootopia: Better Zoogether! WILL be included in the Lightning Lane Multi Pass — and we don’t want you to forget! It will officially be available on the attraction’s opening date, November 7th. The Lightning Lane Multi Pass is going to be popular, so make sure you get it early.

So many posters!

The attractions that are included in Animal Kingdom’s Lightning Lane Multi Pass will be:

All kinds of animals will be joining together to bring us along for rousing performances from several of the diverse biomes you’ll find within the world of Zootopia. During this show, the Tree of Life Theatre will become the epicenter of Zoogether Day. Heidi Howler, the wolf host, will be presenting a watch party where the audience will catch all the festivities via livestream. You’re really going to enjoy it, and we can’t wait to hear what you think of the show!
