  • The Disney theme parks are always looking to enhance the guest experience and with 2019

  • just around the corner, there's quite a few things to get excited for at Disneyland

  • in California.

  • From new rides and attractions to updates to current shows and the return of an old

  • favourite, we're gonna discuss what next year has in store.

  • So sit back as we count down the Top 5 New Attractions and Updates Coming to Disneyland

  • in 2019.

  • Number 5

  • {Singing} The Wonderful World of color

  • The nighttime spectacular World of Colour hasn't been performed since April of 2018

  • and if you've walked past Paradise bay, the fountains and platforms have been exposed

  • for quite some time now.

  • You may be wondering when will the show actually be returning to the park.

  • Well heres the story- in April of 2018 World of Color went down for a scheduled refurbishment

  • that was supposed to end on June 22nd, allowing the show to be ready for the opening of Pixar

  • Pier on June 23rd.

  • Well June 22nd comes and goes and Disney announces that the refurbishment would extend well into

  • the summer.

  • In twitter replies they've mentioned that the refurb would extend into late 2018 and

  • other replies began to say the end of the year.

  • So what actually happened?

  • Why such a long closure without any explanations?

  • Well apparently back in mid may, the main centre platform was accidentally lowered into

  • the water with electrical components exposed.

  • This severely damaged the entire centre platform and it required custom parts to be fabricated

  • to fix the issues.

  • As of the beginning of November 2018, Disney hasn't officially released any more statements

  • about World of Color and they have yet to announce a return date.

  • Since 2016 World of Color Season of Light has been presented during the holiday season

  • but with this year's holiday entertainment announcements, World of Color was not listed.

  • I don't think Disney's too confident that these issues will be solved to have the show

  • ready for the holidays to make their end of the year goal.

  • It has been rumoured that World of Color won't make a return until 2019 but according to

  • this tweet here from the team at Attractions 360, it looks like they're trying to get

  • it up this holiday season.

  • {Genie} Made you look!

  • If they do get the show up and running for the holidays it'll be a much needed addition

  • to the entertainment line up at Disney California Adventure, or what could actually happen is

  • that World of Color may just be one more thing to look forward to in 2019.

  • Number 4 On June 23rd, 2018 Pixar Pier officially opened

  • at Disney California Adventure.

  • With this overlay we saw new Pixar neighbourhoods pop up around the pier.

  • This included Incredibles Park home of the newly themed Incredicoaster, The Toy Story

  • board walk home to Toy Story Midway Mania and the Pixar Promendae home to the Pixar

  • Pal a Round.

  • The Pier looks great especially at night, but even though it officially opened in June,

  • it wasn't fully complete.

  • Elements have been slowing finished over the last few months.

  • The luxo Jr animatronic lamp on top of the Pixar Pier sign was finally installed at the

  • end of October.

  • He looks great and things are starting to look complete but the pier isn't fully clear

  • of construction walls.

  • In 2019 the Toy Story Boardwalk will be home to Jessie's Critter Carousel based off Jessie's

  • Critters from Woody's Roundup in Toy Story 2.

  • This is replacing the former king triton carousel and work is well underway.

  • The carousel has been stripped and repainted, and this new red paint job on the top shell

  • matches the concept art Disney released.

  • The former sea creatures on the carousel will be replaced with 56 new animals.

  • This includes a turtle, snake, bunny, raccoon, ram, deer and a skunk.

  • Disney hasn't released any official information regarding an opening date but I don't think

  • it's too far off to assume that we could see Jessie's Critter Carousel make its debut

  • in late winter.

  • All the infasture is already there from the old ride and its basically just thematic elements

  • that need to be added.

  • Once this ride opens, the Toy Story Boardwalk area of Pixar Pier will finally be complete.

  • Number 3 The one neighbourhood in Pixar Pier that has

  • yet come to fruition is the Inside Out Headquarters.

  • This neighbourhood is gonna be located on the western end of the pier in the centre

  • of this helix of the Incredicoaster.

  • The area used to be home to the Maliboomer which was permanently closed and removed in

  • 2010 and remained vacant since.

  • In 2019 this area will get new life with the addition of Inside Out: Emotional Whirlwind

  • based on the 2015 film Inside Out.

  • You'll board one of these balloons and spin around in a circle on a slight tilt, but by

  • looking at this concept art, doesn't the ride look familiar?

  • Well if it does, that's because Fliks Flyers from A Bug's Land is being repurposed into

  • Emotional Whirlwind.

  • After a Bug's land closed in in 2018 to make way for a new Marvel themed area coming

  • in 2020, Flik's Flyers was sent off to Italy where it's currently being redesigned into

  • Emotional Whirlwind.

  • If this concept art is exactly what we're getting in terms of theming to the ride and

  • the surrounding area, its gonna bring a nice pop of color to this end of the pier.

  • Like Jessie's Critter Carousel, Disneyland hasn't released any details of the timeline

  • of this project aside from it being open in 2019.

  • Constriction on the area has begun but it doesn't seem as far along as the carousel,

  • so I'm gonna say that we can expect Emotional Whirlwind to open after Jessie's Critter

  • carousel sometime in mid 2019.

  • Once Emotional Ehirlwind opens then the entire Pixar Pier Project will finally be complete.

  • Number 2 Parades are a quintessential part of the Disney

  • theme park experience.

  • The Pixar Play parade made its way into the Disneyland Park for Pixar Fest which began

  • in April of 2018.

  • Well on November 4th, 2018 the Pixar Play Parade was performed for the last time, and

  • while its been around since 2008 at Disney California Adventure, it seems like it might

  • be going away forever or least for the foreseeable future.

  • During the holiday season begging November 9th Disneyland runs the Christmas Fantasy

  • Parade.

  • After the holidays are over you can expect to see the big return of Mickey's Soundsational

  • Parade in late January of 2019.

  • Mickey's Soundsational Parade originally made its debut in May of 2011 and it had its

  • last performance on November 5th 2017.

  • With Mickey Mouse turning 90 this year, it seems like a fitting decision to bring the

  • parade back to Disneyland and who knows, maybe they'll refresh the parade with some new

  • floats and characters like they did with the Pixar Play Parade.

  • At the end of October the Disney parks blog released Mickey and Minnie's outfits that

  • will be worn for the 90th birthday celebration.

  • These outfits are gonna be used in the Move it Shake it Mousketdance it street party and

  • it lists that the outfits will also be used at Disneyland.

  • I'm sure we'll see them show up in the Soundstaional Parade and other 90th birthday

  • celebrations that still have not been announced for Disneyland.

  • As of right now Disney hasn't officially released any specific details on Soundsational's

  • return but the website does list it as a parade returning later.

  • A casting notice that appeared on the Disney Careers website in August stated that the

  • parade would begin performances at the end of January.

  • So get ready to stomp to the beat in 2019 to celebrate Mickey's 90th birthday with

  • Mickey's Soundsational Parade.

  • {Music} Come along and sing a song and join the jamboree.

  • M-i-c-k-e-y M-o-u-s-e.

  • {Mickey Mouse} Come on!

  • Follow my lead!

  • Number 1 The largest addition we'll see in 2019 at

  • the Disneyland Resort is Star Wars Galaxy's Edge.

  • Construction began in April of 2016 and this 14 acre land is set to open at the Disneyland

  • park in summer of 2019.

  • Exact dates have yet to be released but it will debut well before Galaxy's Edge in

  • Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World, and it is rumoured to open in June.

  • Now from the outside they appear to be making great progress on construction.

  • As the mark twain is making the turn back towards Frontierland, take a look behind you

  • and you really get a sense of how big this land is gonna be.

  • In this drone footage Disney Parks released on YouTube, the scale of Glaxy's Edge is

  • jaw dropping and with it being 14 acres, you might be thinking what exactly can we find

  • in this land.

  • Well Star Wars Galaxy's edge will transport you to the planet of Batuu, where you'll

  • find dining, including the Oga's Cantina bar, character experiences and two brand new

  • state of the art attractions.

  • Disney has yet to release the exact names of the attractions but the first is a simulator

  • attraction that allows you to pilot the millennium falcon.

  • Each cockpit will seat 6 people and 3 different positions will be assigned.

  • The two in the front are the pilots, the middle guests are the gunners and the back two seats

  • will be assigned the engineer positions.

  • It will be interactive like Mission Space at Epcot in a sense, but the graphics of the

  • ride will be rendered in realtime.

  • So how you perform in your assigned positions are said to alter the ride creating a unique

  • experience every time you're on the falcon.

  • Next is the battle escape attraction which follows more of the Disney dark ride format.

  • The attraction will use trackless ride vehicles and according to Disney it will will immerse

  • you in a hangar bay in the middle of a battle between the First Order and the Resistance.

  • The attraction is rumoured to include multiple detailed pre shows and many animatronics,

  • which will be placed along the multi level show building.

  • Star War's Galaxy's edge is gonna be the most immersive land created at Disneyland

  • since Cars Land and it's definitely bring in big crowds.

  • So what are you looking forward to the most Disneyland in 2019?
