Overview
- Walt Disney Imagineering submitted a Notice of Commencement on May 28, 2026, describing work at 200 Ascot Dr as “install set elements” for the Alien Swirling Saucers attraction.
- The permit names Icarus Exhibits as the contractor, a firm that has recently built exhibit and set work for other projects at Walt Disney World Resort.
- Because the filing came from Imagineering rather than the resort’s Facilities Asset Management team, reporters say the work is more likely to involve creative or show elements rather than routine mechanical repairs.
- Walt Disney World has made no public announcement about the scope, schedule, or guest impact, so any link to Toy Story 5 or specific changes remains speculative.
- Alien Swirling Saucers opened with Toy Story Land in June 2018, and the permit establishes legal authority to begin installation but does not disclose the final designs or timeline for completion.
