Rumors about Animal Kingdom's yet to debut new nighttime spectacular in Rivers of Light are gaining steam. WDW News Today is reporting that Rivers of Light might be seen exclusively first by attendees of Destination D: Amazing Adventures next month. With the schedule being released yesterday it was noticed that towards the end of Destination D, there will be an optional in-park gathering that takes place at 8 p.m. Originally park admission was required, but now the schedule has been updated to show that it won't be required and details on the in-park gathering are forthcoming.
Even more interesting is Animal Kingdom closes at 7:30 p.m. on November 20 where every other night the park closes at 8:30. Rumors have been swirling for months on Rivers of Light since it was delayed last April. No updates have been given although last week Disney did accidentally leak some info on dining packages for the nighttime spectacular. Although it was quickly pointed out the dates which some were thinking were for May 2017 were actually believed for the details for Rivers of Light original debut.
Could we soon be hearing details on the official debut of Rivers of Light finally? Will Destination D attendees next month actually be the first guests to see the new nighttime spectacular? It sure sounds like it, we will just have to wait and see next month. Destination D: Amazing Adventures takes place November 19-20 at Disney's Contemporary Resort.
First Look at Stargazer Lounge Coming to Planet Hollywood Observatory in Disney Springs:
The new Planet Hollywood Observatory inside Disney Springs will have completely new theming when it opens later this year. It will still feature stars from the big screen but the big focus will be on the stars in the sky, as the restaurant completes its transformation into a turn-of-the-20th-century observatory.
Food and drink menus for the restaurant will be revealed soon. Guests can expect more famous movie memorabilia, video screens, cutting edge music, and a store that will feature themed merchandise. The restaurant will feature the Stargazer Lounge where guests will find signature craft cocktails with names that reflect the planets and space travel.
The Disney Parks Blog gave us a sneak peak at two of those cocktails in The Observatory and the Sparkling Sputnik. The Observatory is a sweet sip with Stoli vodka, tangy Limoncino Bottega, Monin Peach Tea, and an infusion of bubbles from Maschio Prosecco. The Sparkling Sputnik combines prosecco, sparkling water, fresh lime juice, and fragrant mint leaves.
