Several attractions at Disneyland Orlando have been shut down in preparation for the new park. There’s a lot of speculation as to what’s being leveled and built over, but it looks like Big Thunder Ranch and parts of Frontierland in Orlando are going to bite the dust. Something like this, maybe?
In California rumor has it they’re tearing down a chunk of The Streets of America to make way for their park. Both also have Marvel expansions coming to fit on their lots. The parks as we know it aren’t going to exist by the end of this year.
Are you excited about Star Wars Land?
