Along with Al Roker, the trio revealed The Today Show would be broadcast from Florida.

However, fans need not worry, the show is relocating for one day only.

To celebrate the opening of Universal’s Epic Universe, the team have headed South.

They will be broadcasting live from the brand new Orlando theme park, as they give fans a taste of what’s on offer.

Sharing the news on Instagram, Today posted a video of Craig and Savannah announcing the news.

Al could also be seen in the clip exploring the incredible park.

At the end of the short video, Craig promised fans tomorrow’s episode was “going to be epic”.

Commenting on the location shake-up, one fan said: “Awesome! I can’t wait to watch this!”

Another added: “This is so exciting!”

NEW LINE-UP

There have been a lot of changes going on at Today recently.

Last week it was announced that Savannah will replace Hoda Kotb as Jenna Bush Hager’s co-host, but there’s a catch.

Ever since the departure of veteran host Hoda, Jenna has fronted her segment with a number of different co-hosts.

The likes of Andy Cohen, Eva Longoria, Taraji P. Henson, Tyra Banks, and Tiffany Haddish have all filled in.

However, the official Instagram account of Today announced that Savannah will take to the airwaves with the star next week.

The announcement post caption read: “Our girl SG will be back in the #JennaandFriends co-hosting chair all next week! You don’t want to miss it.”

Fans flooded to the comments section as they praised the new appointment.

One user stated: “The duo we NEED.”

As someone else stated: “Put her in the spot permanently!”

Although the main show anchor will present the fourth hour, she will only be in the slot for the week and will not take up the role full-time.

The U.S. Sun previously revealed that Sheinelle Jones will officially replace Hoda as Jenna co-host after she returns from family leave.
