Merry Menagerie puppets returning to Animal Kingdom for the holidays

The holiday season will see the return of the Merry Menagerie puppets at Animal Kingdom with characters in holiday costumes and a special Tree of Life show at night.

On Discovery Island, as you head over to the Tree of Life you will see the Merry Merry Menagerie of winter animals. These life-size, artisan-sculpted reindeer, fox, polar bear, and penguin puppets will interact with you in a playful manner. This a lot of fun and the puppeteers are amazing.

In addition, as you explore the park, you might catch Goofy, Chip ‘n’ Dale and other Disney character friends bringing their own style of festive flair to the Discovery River, as they jingle through the jungle to the rhythm of the holidays.

At night, when the park is open after dark, the Tree of Life awakens as a series of wintry tales emerge from within, complemented by a familiar and heartwarming holiday-inspired musical score. Between awakening moments, the Tree of Life joins the Beacons of Magic in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Walt Disney World Resort, as magical fireflies gather to produce a warm and glorious light, calling forth the EARidescent magic of nature.
