1. Wave as Your Disney Friends Cruise by on a Flotilla
Throughout the day, Discovery River comes alive with fabulous flotillas featuring some of your favorite Disney characters. Beginning Sept. 4, keep an eye on the water for the brand-new “Adventure Flotilla,” where you may spot Launchpad McQuack and Scrooge McDuck from Disney’s “DuckTales” setting sail, or Russell and Dug from Disney and Pixar’s “UP” exploring the wilderness.

2. Reach Out for a Warm Embrace
If up-close encounters are more your thing, you’ll definitely want to make a pit stop in DinoLand U.S.A. when Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, and Chip ‘n’ Dale return on Sept. 4 … and yes, the chipmunks will be in their iconic dino outfits! Just across the river at Adventurers Outpost, world travelers Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse have once again opened the doors of their exploration headquarters and are ready to pose for a postcard-worthy photo as they prepare for their next expedition.

3. Visit the Big Blue… and Beyond with Nemo
Dive into the world of Disney and Pixar’s “Finding Nemo” at “Finding Nemo: The Big Blue… and Beyond!” Talented performers bring characters from the beloved film to life in this spectacular new stage show featuring fan favorite songs such as “In the Big Blue World” and “Go with the Flow.” You’ll swear the original movie must have been a musical, too!

4. See Simba, Timon and Pumbaa at “Festival of the Lion King”
Let’s hear it for the Tumble Monkeys! Timon’s group of high-flying primates are back, once again bringing their acrobatic hijinx to “Festival of the Lion King.” A must-do on any visit to the park, this Disney’s Animal Kingdom staple is jam-packed with singing, dancing and soaring aerial performers.
