Exciting news, Disney enthusiasts! Josh D’Amaro, Chairman of Disney Experiences, has officially announced that an all-new attraction inspired by Pixar Animation Studios’ vibrant film “Coco” is set to enchant visitors at Disney California Adventure. Work on this highly anticipated ride is slated to begin in 2026.

This upcoming attraction will transport guests to the mystical Land of the Dead, joining Miguel and beloved characters from the film in a musical adventure. Notably, this will be the first “Coco”-themed ride in any Disney park, promising a unique and culturally rich experience for fans.

Walt Disney Imagineering plans to draw inspiration from classic attractions such as the Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean. But this ride will also bring something new and magical. “We’re bringing our skeletal cast of characters to life in a big way through the latest Audio-Animatronics technology,” Josh D’Amaro revealed. “These figures will appear in ways you’ll have to see to believe.”

The use of advanced Audio-Animatronics technology is particularly thrilling, as it promises to bring characters to life in unprecedented ways, enhancing the storytelling in true Disney fashion. We’ve seen these innovations before, but this ride aims to push the boundaries even further.

So, what do you think about this major news? Will you be making a trip to Disney California Adventure to experience the “Coco” ride once it’s completed? Share your thoughts in the comments and spread the word about this exciting new addition. Let’s get the conversation started!
