Disney fans, brace yourselves! A spectacular new world is coming to Disney California Adventure—an immersive land based on “Avatar: The Way of Water” and other upcoming films in the Avatar franchise. This much-anticipated addition promises thrilling adventures set against the stunning backdrop of Pandora’s wide-open seas and luminescent rainforests.
Unveiled at the recent D23 fan event in Anaheim, the Avatar-themed experience is one of several exciting new attractions slated for the Disneyland Resort over the next five years. Though Disney hasn’t nailed down an exact opening date, the ambitious timeline suggests Avatar fans may be stepping into this new world as early as 2028 or 2029. Just imagine a land that rivals the epic scale of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and the immersive Pandora – The World of Avatar at Disney’s Animal Kingdom in Florida.
So, what’s in store? The centerpiece attraction promises an innovative boat ride through a radiant Pandoran rainforest. Picture yourself gliding through waters under glowing branches, encountering Viperwolves, majestic Tulkun, and Hammerhead Titanothere along the way. Concept art also hints at additional rides, including a possible interactive water feature reminiscent of Epcot’s “Journey of Water inspired by Moana” and a whimsical “teacup” style ride surrounded by Panopyra love flowers.
While Disney remains tight-lipped about the exact location within Disney California Adventure, possibilities range from the Hollywood Land studio backlot to a new DisneylandForward expansion area. Wherever it lands, this Avatar experience aims to be a monumental addition, capturing the magic and wonder of James Cameron’s blockbuster universe.
