Disney’s Animal Kingdom will soon debut a new Rivers of Light Dessert Party, which features a buffet of Animal Kingdom-themed desserts, snacks, and drinks followed by reserved VIP seating for the theme park’s nighttime show, Rivers of Light.

The party begins with check-in one hour before the show (e.g. 8:15 p.m. for a 9:15 p.m. show) at the Rivers of Light Asia Viewing Area Terrace located across from Expedition Everest. Guests will be treated to an array of house-made desserts, snacks, specialty alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, iced tea, lemonade, and water.

Just before the show starts, you’ll be directed to the VIP Seating Area, where you’ll enjoy exceptional views of Rivers of Light.

The new experience will take place on select nights starting on Monday, August 6, 2018. Price (which includes tax) is $79 for adults and $47 for children and must be paid for in full at the time of booking.

  1. For adults this is fun a great way to unwind at the end of the day. We had 2-3 cocktails each and then snacks and dessert. Then could have a lite dinner when got back to hotel. We felt it was a great value. Definetly fun if you have transportation back to your hotel.

  2. The dessert parties really are out of control. It’s just more money grabbing and it strikes me on such a sour note.

  3. I just tried to book this for Aug 6th on both the website and calling and it doesn’t start until the 11th. 🙁

    DEBK REPLIES: Angi, I just tried to book online, and there was availability for Aug. 6. Maybe it was just a temporary glitch – please try again!
