The Jungle Book: Alive with Magic was a short lived nighttime show at Disney's Animal Kingdom in the Walt Disney World Resort. The Jungle Book: Alive with Magic was located in the park's Discovery River. The show was limited-time engagement and filled the space of the delayed Rivers of Light night-time show, presumably until Rivers of Light was ready.[1] The show featured music from the film, adding an Indian influence. The show opened on May 28, 2016,[1][7] with a soft opening the night before.[5]
