Exciting news from the magical world of Disney! With 2024 just around the corner, The Walt Disney Company has officially confirmed a series of highly anticipated expansions that promise to bring new thrills and unforgettable experiences to Disney Parks worldwide. During a recent financial results conference, CEO Bob Iger elaborated on this ambitious venture, which includes a $60 billion investment over the next decade, significantly enhancing Disney Parks, Experiences, and Products.
Walt Disney World Resort, a sprawling wonderland consisting of four theme parks, two water parks, and numerous resort hotels, continues to lead the industry with its innovative attractions and immersive themes. Notably, EPCOT is currently undergoing substantial renovations aimed at transforming World Celebration, World Discovery, and the redesigned World Nature. One highlight is the introduction of the “Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana” attraction. Meanwhile, Magic Kingdom recently celebrated the opening of “Tiana’s Bayou Adventure,” delighting guests with a vibrant reimagining of the classic Splash Mountain.
Across the globe at Tokyo Disney Resort, guests are in for a treat as new attractions inspired by Frozen, Tangled, Peter Pan, and Tinker Bell are set to debut on June 6th. Back home, Disneyland Resort will see the triumphant return of the nighttime spectacular, Fantasmic!, on May 24th, after Maleficent’s dramatic fire incident earlier this year.
Additionally, Disney Cruise Line is expanding its fleet, with the much-anticipated Disney Treasure and Lighthouse Point set to enrich Disney’s lineup of enchanting sailing adventures. The excitement continues with the transformative project at EPCOT, culminating in the opening of CommuniCore Hall on June 10th and the vibrant “Celebracion Encanto” show. Guests can also look forward to the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival kicking off on August 29th.
As for the future, Disney’s blueprint hints at even more expansive projects.
