ANAHEIM (KGTV) – The wait is finally over! Mickey's Towntown has officially reopened at Disneyland Park.
Walt Disney Imagineering thoughtfully reimagined the beloved animated land to remove as many barriers to play as possible by adding more open green spaces to gather and play. Guests can experience thoughtful elements for the different needs of young families, from companion restrooms and a quieter area for decompression to a curb-free land that helps make navigation easier for guests of differing abilities.
NEW INTERACTIVE AREAS AND GRASSY PLACES
CenTOONial Park is the first new space guests will see when they enter the land. It's anchored by two new interactive play experiences: a fountain with water tables designed to give them a sensory experience. Nearby, a dreaming tree with sculptured roots will invite children to crawl and explore.
At Goofy's How-To-Play Yard, kids can discover new ways to make wacky noises and an all-new, elevated clubhouse. Guests can help operate a fun and interactive candy-making contraption inside Goofy's House that only the Goof could think up.
Little ones can make a splash while getting the wiggles out at Donald's Duck Pond. At the center of the pond, guests can once again explore Donald's Boat, which is now surrounded by "larger-than-life" spinning water lilies, balance beams and rocking toys. When looking into the portholes, they can experience "bubbles of fun" with Huey, Dewey, Louie and Webby.
Mickey's TownToon is also the new home of Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway, where guests of all ages can travel together into the wacky and unpredictable cartoon world of Mickey and Minnie.
