There was initially much speculation surrounding what this experience would entail.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Then, in 2024, at a Morgan Stanley Technology, Media and Telecom Conference, Disney CEO Bob Iger indirectly confirmed that this would be a new land, saying, &#8220;We have one Avatar based land, Pandora, in Florida we&#8217;re going to put a second one in California. That doesn&#8217;t mean we can&#8217;t put one somewhere in Asia or somewhere in Europe for instance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Since that time, Disney has shared concept art, details on the new attraction that will be featured, and models for the design of the land. Disney confirmed that this new addition will be located in Disney California Adventure and later shared that Monsters, Inc. Mike and Sulley to the Rescue! would be closing to make way for it.

The new Disneyland Resort land does not yet have an official name at the time of writing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">We assume, based on our predicted opening timeline for the land, that it will primarily be centered around <em>Avatar: The Way of Water<\/em> and <em>Avatar: Fire and Ash, <\/em>given that the next two planned films of the franchise don&#8217;t debut until 2029 and 2031.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">You can see that the concept art of the overall land is very much reminiscent of the second film. It appears that pools of water, where ride vehicles pass through, will back up to a stunning, massive rock structure with a waterfall. We can already tell that the design will have the same immersive &#8220;wow&#8221; factor as the floating mountains of the Avatar Flight of Passage queue at Animal Kingdom, complete with lush foliage and striking details.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">There are several bridges that visitors can pass over, and in both of the concept art renderings, there are creatures visible to guests walking through the land. We are spotting what appears to be large otters lounging on the shore (that appear to be part of the ride) and a type of blue bird atop the floating rocks.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Avatar Disneyland\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"547\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/PQDU3G9aOS7LoAHOKbs0dA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0NztjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/mickey_visit_articles_422\/f5872741615538d1fcc00277ef9cd2ce\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Photo Credit: Disney Parks Blog<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>READ MORE \u2013 <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/mickeyvisit.com\/rides-disney-almost-built\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Rides Disney Almost Built But Didn't (And Why They Never Happened);elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Rides Disney Almost Built But Didn&#8217;t (And Why They Never Happened)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">We got to see the creative process in action with some of the\u00a0models of the land revealed in the D23 Imagineering: Behind the Dreams pavilion.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/v172hq843WlH941rS1Jg.g--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTcyMDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/mickey_visit_articles_422\/12460228e9ab8c4a3dc75d09b4e466eb\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While the new attraction (discussed in more depth below) is the only part of the land that is formally announced at this point, we assume that more details on additional offerings will be shared in the future. We expect dining, shopping, and perhaps even another new surprise attraction added (like they did with Stark Flight Lab for Avengers Campus). If not another ride, we could see them do something similar to Moana&#8217;s Journey of Water walkthrough or introduce a kids&#8217; play area.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In an ideal world, we could even see them introduce some new live entertainment to the park, or even unique meet-and-greet experiences with the creatures of Pandora. I&#8217;m thinking about the puppetry success of Toothless at Epic Universe and the Harry Potter creatures that appeared at Universal Fanfest Nights. How fun would it be to see them pull off something similar for the Avatar universe? The possibilities are really endless, so we will have to wait and see what Disney has up their sleeve.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">We anticipate that they may be withholding some details of the new land until the debut of <em>Avatar: Fire and Ash. <\/em>If the land is partially based on this film, then they are limited in how much they can share without spoiling this upcoming installation.

We even dare to say that the ambition and thrill of this boat ride may be akin to what Imagineers envisioned for the shelved Rivers of Time attraction in <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/mickeyvisit.com\/inside-disneyland-westcot-plans\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Disney California Adventure's EPCOT-style park that was never built;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Disney California Adventure&#8217;s EPCOT-style park that was never built<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In the concept art Disney shared above, we can see a Tulkun breaching. We also have a look at another portion of the ride that appears to take us through a darker setting where a pack of Viperwolves is closing in. It looks like the water has a bioluminescent glow, which will be a fun detail to experience.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"concept art for new Avatar ride\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"534\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/lBW2NND8Km12VWDZgCuBuQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTUzNDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/mickey_visit_articles_422\/186c004e3f19c9ae6ae9b3863445316d\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Photo via Disney Parks Blog<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While the addition of this new Avatar land has been met with mixed reception from fans, it does make sense that Disney would invest in bringing this franchise to the Disneyland Resort, given the popularity of Pandora at Animal Kingdom and the immense success of the two Avatar films. We&#8217;re curious to see how Disney executes this vision and the unique possibilities that this new land opens up.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Don&#8217;t Miss the Latest Disney News<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Don&#8217;t miss the latest Disneyland and Disney World news from Mickey Visit.
