Exclusive Character Encounters at Disney’s Animal Kingdom This Week. As Earth Day approaches on April 22, 2025, Disney’s Animal Kingdom is gearing up to celebrate our planet and its anniversary. This year marks the park’s 27th year of operation since it opened its gates on April 22, 1998.

To commemorate this special occasion, guests visiting Disney’s Animal Kingdom can look forward to special meet-and-greets with the Pixie Hollow fairies Tinkerbell and Fawn. The characters are meeting in the Tree of Life Garden. We have not heard of any other characters, but in years past we have met Goofy & Max, the bears from Brother Bear, Koda and Kenai, Flick and Atta from A Bug’s Life, and many other characters associated with Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

Last year, Disney Live Entertainment surprised guests with Judy Hopps & Nick Wilde from Disney’s Zootopia. The movie Zootopia had just recently been announced as coming to the park and taking over the theater inside the Tree of Life. Zootopia: Better Zoogether

This has been an off year when it comes to Disney’s Animal Kingdom and Earth Day 2025. Normally, by this time of year, we at Disney Eats would have released a Foodie Guide, and Disney Parks would have released more information on some of the fun guests could enjoy during the next few days. But, we have not heard anything, and since it is only 7:00 AM EST on Monday, April 21st, we may still hear something later today. We will update if and when we get word.
