Today has been a busy day regarding the New Fantasyland expansion! So first, the big news!
After years of waiting, the New Fantasyland is getting SO close to opening some of it’s key attractions. Today, Disney announced that it will officially open New Fantasyland on Dec. 6th! Also announced, previews for the new area will begin Nov. 19th. (No word yet on what types of previews these would be, at least right now.)
Making their debut during this Grand Opening will be:
- Under The Sea ~ Voyage of The Little Mermaid: An attraction where guests will have the opportunity to travel with Ariel and friends in this dark ride with lots of songs that are featured in the movie.

Parts of the New Fantasyland have, of course, opened. Dueling Dumbo, The Great Goofini, Casey Jr. Spray n' Soak Station, and the New Fantasyland Station have all opened.
Once these are officially open, Disney will still have more coming down the pipeline for us! Found in the Castle Courtyard, Princess Fairytale Hall, where guests will get to reign court with some of Disney’s most famous Princesses, will open in 2013. (It will be found in the former location of Snow White’s Scary Adventures.) Then, in 2014, The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train will take guests on a first of it’s kind, rollicking roller coaster.
