There’s a lot going on in Disney World right now!
The 2022 EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival will be starting soon (in just a few days, as a matter of fact!), character meet and greets are returning left and right, and there’s also some ongoing construction projects. Today, we’re heading to Disney’s Hollywood Studios to bring you what’s new from the park!
Hollywood Studios Construction Updates
Let’s head over to Toy Story Land and take a look at how the construction is moving along there! The gift shop for Toy Story Mania is currently being renovated, which makes the exit for the ride a little complicated.
Just keep following the arrows on the ground…
…and you’ll pass some construction walls when you make it to the exit!
We also headed over to where the new sit down restaurant, Roundup Rodeo BBQ, will be. The construction is all happening behind a wall, so it’s hard to see what kind of progress is being made.
Disney hasn’t shared a specific opening date for Roundup Rodeo BBQ, only that it will be opening in 2022.

All that was left was the older version of the ears.
