This week, Pixar Pier at Disney California Adventure park opened to guests! And our Disney Parks Blog coverage included a special edition filled with several great stories, including an exclusive Foodie Guide, a ride with an Imagineer on the Incredicoaster, a closer look at what you can expect during your first visit and more.

Pixar Pier, the reimagined land along the shores of Paradise Bay, features exciting attractions, imaginative neighborhoods and food locations all inspired by Pixar films. Take a look at how Walt Disney Imagineering and Pixar Animation Studios collaborated to bring the wonderful worlds of Pixar from the screen to Disneyland Resort:

Also, at the Walt Disney World Resort this week, Toy Story Land was officially added to the digital map of Disney’s Hollywood Studios. You can find the maps on your My Disney Experience app or DisneyWorld.com this weekend.

When Toy Story Land debuts on June 30, guests will get a “toy’s-eye-view” of the fun Woody, Jessie, Buzz, and Andy’s other beloved toys are having in Andy’s backyard. The new land will debut on in-park maps beginning June 30.
