Disney announced more information about the expansion of the Tropical Americas to Disney’s Animal Kingdom in Walt Disney World. Dinosaur will be replaced with Indiana Jones and a new carousel and the house from Encanto will be added.
You will enter into a large area that feels like a lived-in land with a long, rich history.
A hacienda quick service area will also be there, as well as a fountain and a carousel.
Indiana Jones
Dinosaur will be replaced with a new Indiana Jones attraction based on a Maya temple.
“In this new venture, the man with the hat has recently discovered a perfectly preserved Maya temple, and that can only mean one thing: it’s time to explore it. He’s heard rumors about a mythical creature deep within the temple — and he’s got to see it for himself.”
Encanto
The first Encanto themed ride will be coming to Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
“Featuring the beloved Madrigal family from the Walt Disney Animation Studios film. Inside the Casita, Antonio has just received his special gift — the ability to communicate with animals — and his room has transformed into a rainforest.”
The construction will be done in phases so guests have time to ride Dinosaur again.
It will all open in 2027.
