Overview
- New Florida Department of Environmental Protection wastewater plans show the playground’s footprint on the former Cretaceous Trail between DINOSAUR and the repurposed Chester & Hester’s retail space.
- The filing outlines multiple slides, a climbing structure, and Tropical Americas–themed play areas that echo the spirit of the retired Boneyard.
- On-site photos show vertical construction advancing on the Encanto attraction, with an additional section of the show building now rising near the current DinoLand walkway.
- DinoLand U.S.A., including the DINOSAUR ride, will close permanently in early February as the area transitions to Pueblo Esperanza, with DINOSAUR set to be reimagined into an Indiana Jones experience distinct from Anaheim’s.
- Disney has not announced an opening date for the new land, though some outlets cite 2027 as an expectation, and a detailed scale model is currently on display at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
