Disneyland Park continues to deliver a world-class guest experience. While carrying forward Walt Disney’s original vision, the improvements range from beautification to maxi¬mizing guest comfort and improving guest flow, as they prepare the theme park for its next phase of significant growth, starting with Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. Last year, Disney announced plans to build another parking structure adjacent to Mickey & Friends. The new structure will be called Pixar Pals, featuring familiar friends from Disney Pixar films such as “Coco,” “Monsters, Inc.” and “Inside Out”. More than 5,000 parking spaces will be available within the structure. Disney anticipates it opening by the end of July, possibly sooner. The new structure will feature a new electronic parking system to expedite guest parking. In the next few months, the Toy Story parking lot also will be expanded with more than 2,000 additional parking spaces, and additional entrances. They will also be adding security-screening tents before guests board the Toy Story parking lot shuttles to eliminate screening in the esplanade outside the theme parks at peak times. Disney completed many of the improvements to guest flow and queuing that we have previously shared, including the curb grading in Town Square. Work has now begun to finish the walkways in the central Plaza, also referred to as the “hub,” while retaining the intimate feel at the heart of Disneyland Park. In addition to enhancing curbs with slow inclines, they will also be are softening corners on planters to help guests navigate around them. There is also work being completed to the entrance and marquee to Adventureland as part of Project Stardust. Some other Project Stardust enhancements include policy updates to make the theme park experience more enjoyable for guests. When Project Stardust is complete, Disneyland Park will remain the beloved icon and international treasure it is today, while preparing the Disneyland Resort for generations of future guests.
