April 22nd 2018 mark the 20th anniversary of Animal Kingdom in Walt Disney World.

It was a wild time, and we were there for the celebrations today.

Kicked off with a ceremony in the Haram Bay Theater instead of outside in front of the tree of life like they've done for past celebrations due to the possibility of heavy rain that never actually approached the area.

The ceremony also featured Joe Brody, who, if you don't know, is the lead Imagineer responsible for everything at Animal Kingdom, including Pandora. 00:00:53.890 --> 00:01:2.400 This they also officially marked the debut of up a great Bird adventure and the Pandora utility suit, which will show more of later in the video. 00:01:2.650 --> 00:01:12.320 If you're interested in learning more about the park, you can check out our top 10 secrets of Animal Kingdom video But here are some highlights from the 20th anniversary celebration.
