Tripoto

Most of us experienced our first attachment with fictional characters through the enchanting worlds of The Lion King and The Jungle Book. Together, we’ve sobbed to Simba’s banishment, been shocked at King Mufasa’s death and learned from Mowgli and Bagheera’s friendship. What if we told you that this summer, you could revisit your sweet childhood memories with a special festival at Disneyland®?
