Walt Disney World has officially released the poster for Zootopia: Better Zoogether, the upcoming stage show debuting next month at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. This new attraction marks the next major addition to the park and will be housed inside the iconic Tree of Life, replacing the long-running It’s Tough to Be a Bug, which closed earlier this year.
The promotional artwork for Zootopia: Better Zoogether features fan-favorite characters Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde front and center, wearing their updated outfits from the upcoming Zootopia 2 film, along with signature CarrotVision 3D glasses.
Behind them, the Tree of Life takes center stage with several familiar characters from the Zootopia universe nestled among the branches, including Officer Clawhauser, Mr. Big and Fru Fru, Flash Slothmore, a polar bear, and a new character named Heidi Howler. Gazelle, voiced by Shakira in the original film, is also featured, elegantly posed in a large “G” aerial hoop suspended from the tree.
Here’s a comparison to the initially released attraction poster with an illustrated look, compared to the newly released poster which resembles the film’s animation style. Which look do you prefer?
The 4-D show will also feature an all-new Officer Clawhauser Audio-Animatronic. Heidi Howler, the new character introduced for the show, will serve as the host for the celebration.
Zootopia: Better Zoogether is centered around “Zoogether Day,” a themed in-universe holiday that brings animals from all backgrounds together to celebrate community and cooperation. The show itself is structured into three distinct acts: an ice-skating performance by polar bears, a synchronized swimming routine, and a shrew drone light show. Plus, the finale features Gazelle performing one of her signature pop anthems.
The attraction is set to open on November 7, 2025, inside the Tree of Life theater. Annual Passholder previews will take place on November 5th and 6th (learn how to sign up here!).
