Disneyland’s Mickey Toontown to be reimagined, will debut 2023

Mickey’s Toontown in Disneyland will shut down in March 2022 for a major overhaul, Josh D’Amaro, chairman of Disney Parks, Experiences and Products, announced today at the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA) Expo.

Mickey’s Toontown will feature new play experiences, as well as open, grassy play spaces for everyone to unplug so families and young children can have more opportunities to play together inside Disneyland park.

“The newly reimagined Mickey’s Toontown will be a welcoming place where families and younger guests can connect and play together in fun new ways,” D’Amaro said.

According to Disney, “One of the new areas coming to Mickey’s Toontown will be CenTOONial Park, the first space guests will see when they enter. This natural space will be anchored by two interactive play experiences.

‘At the center of CenTOONial Park will be a fountain, designed for play, which will also become a center icon for Mickey’s Toontown. As its base, water tables will invite guests to play with the water and have a sensory experience. At night, the fountain will be brought to life in a unique spectacle.”

A dreaming tree inspired by the tree a young Walt Disney would daydream underpin his hometown will also be included. “Sculpted tree roots will provide an opportunity for children to play, crawl and explore, and undulating topography will offer rolling hills and a place to sit and dream,” according to Disney.

In addition to reopening in 2023 with the new, family-friendly and adventurous Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway, Mickey’s Toontown will still be home to Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Goofy, Donald Duck and more.
