Discover the Magic of Our Beautiful Planet During Earth Week Celebration at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

At Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park, come join in the fun of our annual Earth Day Celebration, as the park spends not just the day but an entire week honoring our planet and how we can all come together to create a healthier home for people and wildlife. That’s right, a whole week – April 18-24 – connecting with the magic of nature through family-friendly experiences and special offerings.

You can also check out a limited-time Wilderness Explorer activity that rewards you with an Earth Day Nature badge. You’ll also want to make tracks to Discovery Island where you can spot a special Disney Character Cruise on Discovery River. And throughout the park you can find Disney PhotoPass magic that frames you with Wall-E and Eve from Disney and Pixar’s animated feature “Wall-E.” Of course, as you stroll through the park, take time to marvel at its heart and soul – the majestic animals in our care.

And, lastly, don’t forget to pick up a limited-edition Earth Day 2022 trading pin to commemorate the celebration!

My friend and I took one during the Christmas season in 2018 from the GF to the front of MK for the party because the lines for Monorail were nuts. It was such a small thing yet so much fun. I would do it again.

It was a nice service. The fact that they had 2 car seats and the CMs knew how to properly install them was a big deal for us.
