In Less Than 70 Days, a Major CHANGE Will Hit Disney World


Recommended Posts

Some BIG changes are coming to Disney World, and we’re not sure we’re ready for them (okay, we ARE, but we aren’t, if you know what we mean).

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Magic Kingdom is getting the biggest expansion EVER with a new Cars-themed area in Frontierland AND a Villains-themed land (and WE ARE SO READY TO BE BAD WITH OUR FAVORITE DISNEY BADDIES). In Hollywood Studios, a new Monsters, Inc. land will be under construction soon. And in Animal Kingdom, Dinoland, U.S.A. is about to change FOREVER (okay, it’s actually going away) to become Pueblo Esperanza, a new Tropical Americas-themed land. Ahead of that transformation, a BIG change is coming to Animal Kingdom soon.

So Dinoland, U.S.A. is going to have to close to make way for Pueblo Esperanza. However, it will be closing in phases, meaning not ALL of Dinoland will be closed at the same time. But if you’re visiting Disney World in January 2025, the first phase of construction will begin, and you’ll notice that parts of Dinoland will be closed…forever.

Disney previously announced that the following parts of Dinoland will be closing as of January 13th, 2025: TriceraTop Spin, Fossil Fun Games, and Chester & Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures (NOOOO…we love that gift shop). So, if you’re visiting Animal Kingdom on that date or later, those parts of Dinoland will be behind construction walls to be converted into something new.

For the time being, you’ll still be able to enjoy Dinosaur, the Boneyard, Restaurantosaurus, Dino-Bite Snacks, and Trilo-Bites. Disney previously said it’s trying to give folks a last chance to “go get that dino” on Dinosaur, so it could be one of the last parts of Dinoland to close (we hope!!).

DINOSAUR

Pueblo Esperanza will have a Tropical Americas theme and will bring three new rides to Animal Kingdom, including a carousel, a brand-NEW Indiana Jones-themed ride, AND a ride that will take you inside the Casita from Encanto.
