'Taste of Africa' coming to Disney's Animal Kingdom this summer?
Jun 15, 2010

We've had a couple of tips about a new offering coming to Disney's Animal Kingdom this summer called 'Taste of Africa'. Plans currently call for it to begin around July of this year, featuring music, food, shopping and live entertainment. A mini-parade is also part of the plans for this new Harambe offering. There is no official information released on this yet, so as always things are subject to change and the information should be treated as speculation at this point. We'll update when we have more information.

Sounds interesting... I wonder if they are considering this because of the World Cup being in South Africa?

ZING! Maybe I'd enjoy watching if it didn't sound like a swarm of killer bees was descending on me... Or I understood more than "GOOOOOOOOAL!!!!"

'The Taste of Africa Street Party' coming to Disney's Animal Kingdom on July 9
Jun 21, 2010

We mentioned last week that a new entertainment offering was heading to Animal Kingdom for the summer, and we now have some more details to share.

The full name will be 'The Taste of Africa Street Party', and it begins on July 9, running nightly until July 24 2010 in the Africa section of the park. It's currently a limited time test, but may be extended if it proves popular.

The event begins each night immediately after Mickey Jammin' Jungle Parade, and runs through until park close. On Extra Magic Hours evening, the event will continue until the end of EMH.

The entertainment offerings include:
Music and dance party with Harambe's DJ Khalifa
Outdoor vendors selling unique food and beverages offerings
Performances by featured musical group, Wasslou
Beer and wine tastings at Tamu Tamu Courtyard
Authentic merchandise options available for purchase
Animal Education experiences with the Harambe Wildlife Team

I think this would be a great thing for them to do during the summer... I would love to see them do something like this over in the Asia section of the park too.
