Get ready for a magical expansion at Disney's Animal Kingdom! The beloved film "Encanto" is set to get its very own attraction, and construction is visibly ramping up.
Encanto Ride Building Progress: A Growing Spectacle
The Tropical Americas section of Animal Kingdom is undergoing a significant transformation, and our recent visit revealed some exciting progress on the Encanto-themed attraction. The framework for this new ride has seen a substantial outward expansion, hinting at the scale of what's to come.
When you look closely at the images available, you can spot the older section of the structure to the right, peeking out from behind the construction walls. On the highest level of the framework, a few dedicated workers were busy at their tasks, while down below, an excavator was parked, ready for action. The newest part of the framework is prominently jutting out from the taller section, visibly extending towards the existing walking paths. It's still a bit of a mystery whether this new addition will reach the same impressive height as the original structure or if it will continue to grow even taller.
The Grand Opening: Tropical Americas and Pueblo Esperanza
This enchanting Encanto attraction is slated to open alongside the official debut of the Tropical Americas land in 2027. This vibrant new area, officially named Pueblo Esperanza, is set to replace the current Dinoland U.S.A. and will also feature a delightful carousel, with the first creature for it already revealed!
