New Experiences Coming to Disneyland Resort
In addition to our ongoing growth and investment in the guest experience, the passing of DisneylandForward in May 2024 has unlocked a roadmap for incredible potential opportunities that will fuel the growth of Disneyland Resort and the City of Anaheim for years to come. Check back here for updates on experiences in development that will support the growth of Disneyland Resort.
Avengers Campus Expansion
Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure park will double in size with two brand-new attractions — Avengers Infinity Defense and Stark Flight Lab. These thrilling experiences will prepare guests to suit up and fight alongside some of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. Construction has begun on this exciting expansion.
All-New Parking Structure and Transportation Hub
Plans are underway for a new parking structure and transportation hub that will be built on the east side of Disneyland Resort, on a portion of what is currently the Manchester cast member parking lot. This new area will provide approximately 6,000 parking spaces, dedicated shuttle and rideshare areas, security screening and dedicated access for traffic off of Disney Way, improving parking and traffic flow throughout the resort area.
This new parking and transportation hub will also feature a pedestrian bridge over Harbor Boulevard, leading to an all-new esplanade arrival experience. This pedestrian bridge will also provide public access to and from Harbor Boulevard. These enhanced parking, transit and arrival offerings are the first step in our next phase of construction, creating the infrastructure necessary to prepare for future growth and to welcome more guests as new experiences are added. The multi-year construction of this new arrival experience is slated to begin in fall 2026.
First-Ever “Coco” Attraction
An all-new attraction themed to Pixar Animation Studios’ “Coco” is coming to Disney California Adventure park. The attraction will be filled with beloved characters and music from the film, as guests join Miguel on a trip to the land of the dead. The upcoming attraction will be built near Paradise Gardens Park and Pixar Pier, in areas that are predominately backstage today. Construction on this attraction is set to begin backstage in fall 2025.
Avatar Experience
A new destination drawing inspiration from “Avatar: The Way of Water” and upcoming Avatar films is making its way to Disney California Adventure park. This new and thrilling experience will bring the excitement and wonder of Avatar to guests, bringing Pandora to life in a brand-new way.
We’re looking forward to transforming a portion of the current Hollywood Backlot area into our Avatar destination in Disney California Adventure. This project is still in the early stages of development, and additional details will be shared later, including construction timeframes.
To make way for this new experience, Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue! will close in early 2026.
