CALLING ALL FIGMENT FANS!
FIGMENT!!!!!!
We are at D23 and just finished the Horizons: A Carousel of Progress presentation, where we got a TON of news, and to our surprise, it included a BIG story that’s coming- or should we say returning- to EPCOT!
Okay, Disney has dropped a LOT of parks news during the Disney Experiences Showcase at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, and our heads our spinning! But what we might be MOST excited about is that we finally got details about Villains Land (yep, that’s it’s official name) coming to Magic Kingdom.

We have been keeping a close eye on the construction happening in Disney’s Hollywood Studios for the new Monsters, Inc. land, Monstropolis. Disney just shared new details about the new land during D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, and we are getting excited! From a first look at some of the new restaurants and shops to new details about the anticipated roller coaster.

Disney shared new information about the Monsters, Inc. factory and door vault coaster under construction. First, they showed an animated look at what the loading area for the new coaster will look like. Once loaded onto the ride, riders will be lifted 40 feet in the air in 4 seconds and then launched into the vault. It already sounds like we are going to be in for a thrilling adventure through the door vault!
After two years of public development – and decades of daydreams from fans – Disney has released some concrete details about Villains Land!

A massive update is coming to Disneyland Park’s Tomorrowland!
Disneyland Tomorrowland
An opening-day land from 1955, Tomorrowland was created by Walt Disney to give guests glimpses of the future. Slowly evolving over the decades, the land now holds half of Matterhorn Bobsleds, Finding Nemo Voyage Submarine, Autopia, Space Mountain, Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters, Astro Orbitor, a Disneyland Railroad station, Star Tours — The Adventures Continue, a couple of Quick Service restaurants, and a lack of identity.
We’re about to have a 2319, y’all!
