What to Expect at Zootopia: Better Zoogether!

Visitors arrive at the Tree of Life Theater just in time for Zoogether Day, a celebration of unity featuring familiar and new characters like Heidi Howler, a lively wolf who hosts the Zoogether Day LIVE! broadcast filled with excitement and howling. The event includes spectacular performances such as ice skating from Tundratown, synchronized swimming from Marsh Market, mouse drone shows over Little Rodentia, and a musical finale by superstar Gazelle. The show features voice talent from Ginnifer Goodwin and Jason Bateman, with filmmaking contributions by Jared Bush and Byron Howard.
