Disneyland is about to get a spooky yet thrilling addition, and it's all inspired by the beloved movie, Coco! But will this new attraction live up to the hype?
Construction crews are hard at work on a perimeter fence near the upcoming Coco ride site at Disney California Adventure. This fence, a significant 727 feet long and 16 feet high, will enclose the area where the Coco-themed attraction is set to thrill guests. The construction process began with clearing the land, and now tall poles are being erected, marking the fence's beginnings. This development follows a permit filed by Disney last December, indicating their commitment to this project.
The fence's location is strategically chosen, running from a curved sidewalk that was once part of a Mickey shape, almost reaching the corner of Disneyland Drive and W Katella Ave. We've marked the construction zone in the aerial image for your convenience. As part of the preparation, a section of the sidewalk has been demolished, and shrubbery removed, though trees remain to maintain the area's aesthetics and provide some privacy during construction.
Once the fence is complete, the real magic begins! Crews will start building the Coco ride itself, transporting guests to the vibrant Land of the Dead. Disney has revealed a few tantalizing details: guests will join Miguel on his journey, be immersed in the movie's iconic music, and encounter skeletal Audio-Animatronics characters. And here's where it gets exciting—the concept art suggests a boat ride, offering a unique and immersive experience.
While we eagerly await more updates, the anticipation is building. Disney has kept most details under wraps, leaving fans curious about what surprises the ride will bring. And this is the part most people miss—the thrill of the unknown!
