We really enjoyed Festival of the Lion King, one of the live stage shows at Animal Kingdom. Lion King is held in the Harambe Theatre (Animal Kingdom Africa) that is a circle-in-the-round theatre with…Full review by PackUpNGoNow

Tremendous show, nearly worth the price of park admission alone. You are right on top of all the action, it is right there at your level, not up on a stage. Wheelchair seating is the best possible,…Full review by michigander311

It is just 4 sections of really long benches around a central stage area that everyone slides into. When we went, we were packed in. It was really hot outside so the air conditioning was a welcome change, and the show was Vegas worthy.
About 30 mins but it's worth getting there early if you have children as they always invite a few to participate in the show. If you're sat near the front they have a good chance to get picked.

No extra tickets to purchase....part of admission into Animal Kingdom. When we went, the shows were every hour in the afternoon. Because we did not have a fast pass, we got in line at 20 mins before the show time.

Inside theatre...seating almost like a pentagon or square with gaps...bleacher-like seats. They did not go up very high... I think only about 8 to 10 rows but hubby disagrees and thinks …
Inside theatre...seating almost like a pentagon or square with gaps...bleacher-like seats. They did not go up very high... I think only about 8 to 10 rows but hubby disagrees and thinks more like 12 rows. It's one of those places where you don't need the front row to have a good view. We were half way, in the center of one section. Fabulous show!
