Big news for the Disneyland Resort - the previously announced Avatar-themed land will be built near the Hollywood Backlot area at Disney California Adventure Park. To make way for this new land/experience, Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue! will permanently close in early 2026, according to the Disney Parks Blog. More news involves the previously announced Coco attraction in DCA. The Disney parks blog shared that “the upcoming attraction themed to Pixar Animation Studios’ “Coco” will be built near Paradise Gardens Park and Pixar Pier, in areas that are predominantly backstage today. Construction on this attraction is set to begin backstage this fall.” Lastly, an ‘All-New Parking Structure and Transportation Hub Coming to Resort Area.’ The Disney Parks Blog states that “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, shuttle and rideshare areas, security screening and dedicated access for traffic off of Disney Way, improving parking and traffic flow throughout the resort area. As you can see from the artist concept rendering above, 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 convenient 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 – including two all-new attractions that will double the size of Avengers Campus, plus the new “Coco”-themed ride and Avatar destination coming to Disney California Adventure park. The multi-year construction of this new arrival experience is slated to begin in fall of 2026.” What do you think of these announcements?! #disneynews #dca #avatar #coco #disneyparks #disneyland
