New details of a massive development project at Disneyland have been revealed!

The proposal was presented during an Anaheim, Calif. city council meeting on Tuesday. According to the city's official website, the project, known as DisneylandForward, confirms that Disney has agreed to invest a minimum of $1.9 billion into the park in order to update rides and attractions, lodging, entertainment and shopping over the next ten years.

The project, which includes expanding areas west of Disneyland Drive and the Toy Story Parking Area, could potentially require funding of up to $2.5 billion to complete.

In September, Products Chairman Josh D’Amaro teased the possibility of introducing themes from Frozen, Coco, Black Panther, Tangled, Peter Pan, Zootopia, Toy Story and Tron at Disneyland within the next decade.

Attractions with these themes already exist at a number of Disney's other parks. The Frozen Ever After ride is open at Epcot at Disney World in Orlando and an entire Frozen land opened recently at Disneyland Hong Kong. TRON-themed coasters exist at Disney World's Magic Kingdom and at Shanghai Disneyland. Shanghai has a dedicated Zootopia land as of 2023 and Toy Story Land is already part of Disney Studios in Orlando, among others.

Along with the proposed 10-year transformation, the park is working on refurbishing an existing ride that fans know and love: the Haunted Mansion.

The park temporarily shut down the attraction in preparation for major updates starting in Jan. 2024. In August 2023, Disney Parks Blog announced that the iconic attraction would close in order to “expand on the story and lore of the Haunted Mansion” ride located in New Orleans Square.
