Disney has announced exciting developments for Disneyland, including a new Coco attraction and an Avatar-themed area. The Coco attraction, which is the first based on the beloved Pixar film, is set to break ground this fall and aims to bring its skeletal characters to life with advanced Audio-Animatronic technology. This new experience is inspired by classic attractions like Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean. Meanwhile, the Avatar destination will draw from the cinematic universe of Avatar: The Way of Water and future films, continuing Disney's integration of the Avatar franchise into its parks. Unfortunately, this means the closure of Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue! in early 2026. Additionally, Disneyland will be improving its infrastructure with a large new parking structure and transportation hub, enhancing guest accessibility and experience.
