Taste of Africa Street Party coming to Disney’s Animal Kingdom
Disney’s Animal Kingdom is getting a little party started in mid-July, as the theme park adds to this year’s Summer additions at Walt Disney World. As noted in the Mom and The Mouse, there will be a new Taste of Africa Street Party to spice up late afternoons at the park.
The Party will include street vendors selling unusual food and drink, along with music and dancing with Wasslou, the african band, and Harambe’s DJ Khalifa. There will also be animal education experiences, beer and wine tastings, and event specific merchandise.
The Taste of Africa Street Party will apparently begin just after the Mickey’s Jammin Jungle parade and will run until the park closes, continuing through Extra Magic Hours as well. It will take place daily in Harambe and will launch on July 9. The event is only scheduled to last about 2 weeks but if popular that could be extended or perhaps brought back for the holiday busy season.
