🏙️ The story begins on H.U.M.A.N. Day!
For the very first time, humans have been officially invited into Monstropolis to celebrate H.U.M.A.N. Day (Humans Understand Monsters Are Nice), a citywide festival welcoming guests into the monster world.

🎶 As you enter the city, you’ll hear an all-new original song, “Welcome to Monstropolis,” written by legendary composer Randy Newman, immediately setting the stage for your visit.

Disney has confirmed you’ll be able to explore familiar locations from the film, including:

🍣 Harryhausen’s Restaurant

🎓 Monsters University Alumni Club
🛍️ The Scare Emporium gift shop
🍕 Additional themed dining and shopping throughout the city.

🎢 The signature attraction will be unlike anything Disney has ever built! Guests will race through the famous door vault on Disney’s first-ever suspended roller coaster, complete with the first-ever vertical lift at a Disney park—bringing one of the most iconic scenes from Monsters, Inc. to life.

Construction is well underway, and Monstropolis is scheduled to open in 2027, making it one of the most anticipated additions to Walt Disney World.

🏎️ Disney Reveals NEW Details for Piston Peak at Magic Kingdom!

The road to Piston Peak National Park just got even more exciting as Disney revealed even more details for the massive new Cars-inspired expansion coming to Frontierland at Magic Kingdom—and this is much more than just a new ride area.

Piston Peak will become part of the largest expansion in Magic Kingdom history, continuing the storytelling journey that already runs from Liberty Square through Frontierland. Inspired by the Rocky Mountains and America’s national parks, the land will feature towering trees, snowcapped peaks, waterfalls, rivers, geysers, trails, a visitor lodge, Ranger HQ, and more—all inside the world of Disney and Pixar’s Cars.

🏁 Cars Ridge Run Rally
This thrilling new attraction will send guests racing through the rugged wilderness of Piston Peak National Park. Along the journey you’ll:
❄️ Climb a snow-covered mountain
🏔️ Bounce over rugged camelback hills
💦 Speed through a geyser basin featuring Old Tankful, Disney’s Cars-inspired version of Old Faithful.

Even more exciting, Disney says the attraction will use an all-new ride vehicle designed to actually react to the terrain beneath it. The tires and suspension will physically respond to bumps, drops and rocks instead of simply simulating the sensation.

🚌 Miss Fritter’s Daredevil Spin-Along
Families with younger racers can join the “Diva of Demolition” herself, Miss Fritter, who will appear as a huge school-bus-sized Audio-Animatronic while guests join her wild demolition derby celebration on a fun-filled spinning attraction inspired by Cars 3.

Construction is actively underway after the permanent closure of Tom Sawyer Island and the Rivers of America in July 2025.

🎠 A Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow Is Getting a BIG Update!

Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress is getting one of its most significant updates ever and is expected to reopen in 2027 with updated scenes, reimagined eras, a brand-new finale, and the previously announced Walt Disney Audio-Animatronic.

The heart of the attraction will remain the same: the beloved family, Rover, the humor, and of course “There’s a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow.” But the story will now move through eras that more guests can personally remember.

✨ The opening scene: Walt Disney & the 1960s
The updated experience will begin with Walt Disney in a scene inspired by the 1964–65 New York World’s Fair, where Carousel of Progress originally debuted.

🌕 Summer 1969
The family gathers around the television to watch the historic moon landing.

🎃 Halloween 1985
The attraction moves into the ’80s, with new technology, updated appliances, and plenty of nostalgia. Uncle Orville will still be part of the fun!

💻 New Year’s Eve 1999
The family prepares to welcome the year 2000, with the early Internet playing a major role in how technology is connecting people.

🚀 The Possible Future
The brand-new finale looks beyond a specific year and imagines a retro-futuristic world filled with helpful robots, space travel, and new technology woven into everyday life.

We love that Disney is keeping the heart of this Walt Disney classic while giving it a fresh story for a new generation.
