Grab your coconuts! “Moana” fans will be able explore her tropical village inside the magical world of Walt Disney World.
The “Moana” attraction called “Journey of Water” will be opening at Epcot in Orlando, Fla. as part of the park’s massive revamping.
Guests who visit the “Moana” attraction will interact with “living water” in a nature setting. The rendering of the attraction shows spires of water fountains shooting, hopping and spraying among lush vegetation.
It’s about time. The hit movie “Moana” opened in 2016 and though we don’t know when the attraction will be opening, we can only hope it will be soon — by Disney opening ride and attraction standards, anyway.
Walt Disney Parks chairman Bob Chapek called Epcot’s park transformation the largest in the company’s history. Disney officials made the announcement during the annual D23 Expo in Anaheim, Calif. at the same time they revealed the name of a “Star Wars”-themed hotel being planned for the Florida resort. The hotel will be called “Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser.”
Other Epcot attractions in the works include a “Mary Poppins” attraction opening in summer 2020, a revamped Spaceship Earth with new and updated scenes in winter 2020 and a “Guardians of the Galaxy” ride that features Disney’s first reverse launch that is expected to open this winter.
