There’s a lot on the way for Magic Kingdom in the next few years.
Magic Kingdom
We know we’re getting entire new lands in the form of Villains Land and the Cars-themed land taking the place of Tom Sawyer Island, but there’s also a new Pirates Tavern coming to Adventureland sometime in 2025, and if we’re right, and if this secret construction project is what we think it is, we have some updates to discuss.
For the past few months, a mysterious construction project has been taking place at the exit of Pirates of the Caribbean in Magic Kingdom, and we’ve been speculating that this is where Disney will unveil the new Pirates Tavern. We don’t have official confirmation about the location of the new tavern, but currently, we can’t see any other construction in Adventureland, and with the lounge set to open in 2025, we have a pretty good feeling those walls are hiding a new tavern.
Construction is continuing!
When we visited this area recently, we noticed that while the walls are still up, we can see over them a little bit!
Progress is being made!
It appears that a new structure is taking shape behind the construction walls. Could it be an entrance? A doorway? We’re no architectural experts, but either way, we’re seeing some promising progress!
Looking good to us!
The best part? If we take a look at the concept art, we see big beams on the ceiling, just like we are starting to see in Magic Kingdom! This feels like a pretty big clue that the Pirate Tavern is coming along.
