In a new “What’s New, What’s Next” press release issued today, Disney points to a 2017 opening for Rivers of Light.
The past couple of weeks, Disney’s Animal Kingdom has been having Rivers of Light go through Cast Member previews and it led many to believe that it would debut soon for all Guests. Well, that isn’t the case as it has been delayed again.
Originally scheduled to open on Apr. 22, 2016, Rivers of Light was then indefinitely delayed and countless rumored opening dates have come about, but nothing ever definite. While we still don’t have an official start date, Disney has now indeed delayed the opening of Rivers of Light until sometime in 2017 per an official press release.
This powerful theatrical production takes Disney’s Animal Kingdom guests on a magnificent emotional journey – a visual mix of water, fire, nature and light choreographed to an original musical score. Continuing the park’s transformation from a day-into-nighttime experience, the amazing after-dark show on the banks of Discovery River celebrates the majesty of nature and the connection between animals and humans in the world. With innovative and never-before-seen technology, Rivers of Light will be unlike any other production ever staged at Walt Disney World Resort.
