food IS a theme park
The international Disney Parks have some truly unique attractions!

One of the most interesting parks to visit is Tokyo DisneySea, which has some incredibly creative and original attractions and lands. One of those rides is located in Port Discovery, and we just learned that it will be closing permanently.
We’ve seen some new things happening for Disney recently abroad. The new Disney Adventure World in Paris, the new Disney Adventure cruise ship in Singapore. But do not let that fool you into thinking Disney is ready to take a little lie-down and a nap. The company is still pushing a roughly $60 billion investment plan across parks and cruise capacity over about 10 years, which is why the project list still looks like it drank three cold brews and stole a construction crane.

The next big checkpoint is D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, happening August 14 through 16, 2026, in Anaheim. Disney has already scheduled its Disney Experiences Showcase for August 15, which is basically a neon sign flashing “park people, get in here.” And because Josh D’Amaro officially became Disney’s CEO on March 18, 2026, there’s even more reason to think this summer’s presentation could bring fresh timelines, new concept art, and maybe the first wave of projects that feel a little more like his personal stamp on the future of the company.

Big things are happening at Tokyo Disney Resort!
Tokyo Disneyland
As one of the most innovative theme park resorts Disney has to offer anywhere in the world, we take great interest in the resort’s changes, both big and small. Recently, it was revealed that some major changes would be happening with the park’s operations, but what’s even more interesting is what these corporate adjustments could lead to.

Walt Disney World is changing more than one of its parks, and over at Disneyland, a new era is being ushered in as well. However, it’s not only Disney’s domestic parks that are potentially being overhauled and expanded — a new report from Tokyo Disney shows the parks could be in for some BIG changes.
