Toy Story Land Opens June 30th!

We finally know when the highly-anticipated Toy Story Land will open!!!! This brand new land at Walt Disney World will open to Guests at Disney’s Hollywood Studios® June 30, 2018!

When it opens, Guests visiting Toy Story Land will “shrink” to the size of a toy and join in on the fun Woody, Jessie, Buzz, and Andy’s other beloved toys are having in Andy’s backyard. Here, you can take a ride on Slinky Dog Dash, a roller coaster Andy has assembled from his Mega Coaster Play Kit and topped off with Slinky and Jessie. (Check out the time-lapse video below of one of Slinky Dog Dash’s first test runs).

Families will also be able to take a spin on Alien Swirling Saucers, a galactic play set that Andy won from Pizza Planet. Here, adorable little green aliens swirl about in their flying saucers with guests in tow in their rocket ship toys, while “The Claw” hangs overhead.

You will also walk through a new carnival game box to experience Toy Story Mania!, which has been a Guest-favorite attraction at the park since it opened in 2008. Now expanded with a third track, the popular attraction will put even more Guests in the action taking aim at 3D objects – using everything from baseballs to cream pies – in a variety of whimsical, fast-paced games.

Woody’s Lunch Box – actually, Andy’s lunch box that he’s set on its side – will serve up tasty meals and old-fashioned soda floats from a walk-up window setting. The entire land will serve as a visual celebration of toys, with Crayons, Cooties, Green Army Men, Rubik’s Cubes, Tinkertoys, and other familiar toys and game pieces incorporated into the land’s design.

Disney's Hollywood Studios News! Alien Saucers and Name Change Rumors

With blockbuster expansion continuing at Disney’s Hollywood Studios®, the red carpet is being rolled out for the new Toy Story Land opening this summer. You will get to play big in Andy’s backyard and also get to ride on two family-friendly attractions planned for the new land and one popular fan favorite.

Here’s a first glimpse at the latest artwork for one of them – Alien Swirling Saucers.

Once the aliens have powered up their flying saucers, you will get to climb into a toy rocket and hang on as aliens lead the way on an interstellar romp set to an out-of-this-world beat. And if you're really lucky, you just might get “chosen” by the claw!

Also, to address rumors, Disney has announced that the Disney’s Hollywood Studios name will remain the same for the foreseeable future, explaining further "We are immersing you in a place where imagined worlds of Hollywood unfold around you from movies and music, to television and theater."

Toy Story Land Model on Display at Hollywood Studios

Walt Disney Presents is the re-imagined version of the One Man’s Dream attraction at Disney’s Hollywood Studios® and has officially opens its doors to offer a new look at the past, present and future of Disney Parks.

One of the exciting pieces of the “future” that Walt Disney Presents showcases is a model of the park’s Toy Story Land expansion, which will be on display for Guests to view starting today. 

The Toy Story Land expansion, which will open in Summer 2018, will shrink Guests to the size of a toy and allow you to explore all the fun of Andy’s backyard, which as you can see in these images, has been delightfully filled with familiar toys and sights from the “Toy Story” films. 

You can also see some of the charming detail our Imagineers have created for this new land and its two major attractions – Slinky Dog Dash and Alien Swirling Saucers.

The Slinky Dog Dash attraction will be a family coaster themed as if Andy used his Mega Coaster Play Kit to build the ultimate coaster for Slinky. The land’s other major attraction, Alien Swirling Saucers, has been designed as a toy play set that Andy got from Pizza Planet, in which Aliens are flying around in their toy flying saucers and trying to capture guests’ rocket toy vehicles with “The Claw.”

But the Toy Story Land model isn’t the only exciting draw to Walt Disney Presents. Tracing Disney history from Walt Disney’s beginning sketches, photos and storyboards, the attraction celebrates milestones in Disney film and theme park history up through today and beyond. Expect to see models, maquettes, sketches, artist renderings, a portion of the Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge model, concept art for the new Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway attraction and more.

Walt Disney Presents will also continue to host greetings with characters like Star-Lord and baby Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy, plus special sneak previews of upcoming Disney films.
