Tomorrowland Takes Center Stage: Disneyland Reorders Construction Priorities
The Disneyland Resort has announced that its Tomorrowland reimagining project will move ahead of the Avatar destination at Disney California Adventure. According to Jill Estorino, president of the Disneyland Resort, this decision allows Imagineering to focus on preserving the original 1955 park's vision.
The reimagined Tomorrowland project will be guided by Walt Disney's opening day remarks, with a focus on creating an optimistic future for guests. Emily 'Emo' O'Brien, portfolio executive creative producer for Disneyland Resort, stated that the team will balance preserving the heritage of Tomorrowland while updating it for new generations.
The Avatar destination, previously expected to replace a portion of the Hollywood Backlot, has been pushed back in favor of delivering a reimagined Tomorrowland. The construction timeline and opening date for Tomorrowland have not been announced.
