Okay, Disney, let’s not make a habit of this! Every once in a while, a fire alarm can hijack a perfectly normal day in Disney World and cause a little interruption. Recently, the Creations Shop in EPCOT was evacuated after the fire alarm went off, and a smoky refrigerator caused some commotion in Tomorrowland earlier this year. Even Disney World isn’t immune to problems!

During our visit to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, our day was put on pause!

At around 2:30PM, the fire alarm went off at Jambo House in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge. All guests and Cast Members were promptly evacuated and sent outside.

Though no official details were released on the cause of the alarm, we didn’t see any smoke. Guests remained outside for about ten minutes until the all-clear was given and everyone was allowed back inside.
