Can I find Simba or Lion King at MK?

[JoyG]

I know he's at AK, but we weren't planning on visiting that park this time around. We are going to spend one day at Magic Kingdom. I'm the proud mom to a Lion King nut. I know he'll want to see him. Is Simba or anything related to Lion King at Magic Kingdom anywhere? Is there somewhere else on Disney property we can find the Lion King crew without going to Animal kingdom?

Thanks!

Rafiki and Timon sometimes meet at MK. But they are the only Lion King characters to meet on property.

The only other place where he can see something with Simba in it is Mickey's Philharmagic...there's a short scene. Other than that, I cannot think of anywhere other than the AK to see Lion King things.

Yes! We just saw Timon and Rafiki on our last trip. They are in Adventureland, and are there pretty frequently.

Ditto - two weeks ago Rafiki and Timon in Adventureland. I've never seen any of the other characters anywhere - to meet.

There is a show in AK--"The Festival of The Lion King" and you can meet Rafiki and Timon, but I think that's about it.

if the character is non bipedal they are not characters. However Zazu is in the Tiki room.

Lion King-related attractions include Legend of the Lion King at the Animal Kingdom (live show), Circle of Life at Epcot (film about sustainability and environmental protection), and Mickey's PhilharMagic at the Magic Kingdom (3-D movie, Simba is featured in one scene).

The Enchanted Tiki Room (MK) has Zazu, and Kilimanjaro Safaris (AK) has live lions.
