Cast and Media Previews Begin for 'Zootopia: Better Zoogether!' at Animal Kingdom

Early media previews highlight a family-friendly 3D show anchored by a new Clawhauser animatronic.

Overview

  • Disney unveiled the attraction’s marquee at the Tree of Life Theater as Cast Member previews kicked off, with outlets publishing first-look photos and full-show videos.
  • Public opening is set for November 7, with Disney Vacation Club previews November 1–3 and Annual Passholder previews November 5–6 using a virtual queue.
  • The 8–10 minute 3D/4D experience uses CarrotVision glasses and practical effects and overlays the former It’s Tough to Be a Bug theater with new staging, a Heidi Howler host, and a Gazelle finale.
  • The show will be available via Lightning Lane Multi-Pass at launch, alongside a new Judy and Nick meet-and-greet and fresh merchandise tied to the November 26 Zootopia 2 release.
  • Some reporting notes preview reservations remained available for days, indicating a calmer-than-usual Annual Passholder rush compared with past Disney previews.
