6 Lands That Could Come to a 5th Disney World Park

We’re constantly looking to the future to see what changes could come to Disney World!

EPCOT

Right now, we’re awaiting the opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and the completion of some major hotel projects, but on the horizon, we’ve got expansions coming to Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom. Disney World seems to be adding new lands to the parks left and right in the past decade, but what about adding a fifth park altogether? Today we’re discussing the possibilities!

For years, fans have been hoping that Disney World would build a fifth park in Florida, especially since there’s plenty of open land on the Disney World property. It has been predicted by analysts that Disney will announce a 5th park in the near future, but if they did, what would it include?

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Today, we’re sharing our list of 6 lands that Disney World could put in a brand new theme park!

Zootopia

Back when Disney announced plans for revamping Dinoland, USA in Animal Kingdom, they mentioned Zootopia as one of the options for that park. However, if they don’t use Zootopia in Animal Kingdom, this would be a great candidate for a land in a brand-new park.

Zootopia performed incredibly well at the international box office, so adding it to Disney World in a large fashion could be a good way to draw in international visitors. The film also did a significant amount of world-building, so there’s a pretty good footprint for what Disney would need to construct. Not to mention the fact that Zootopia Land opened at Shanghai Disneyland in 2023, so it would be easy to copy and paste some of those offerings.

Frozen

Speaking of movies that performed well, you know we’ve got to talk about Frozen! The first and second films did so well that Disney is currently preparing a third movie for the sisters from Arendelle. World of Frozen opened in 2023 in Hong Kong Disneyland, so this is another one that would be easy to replicate.

We’ve already got a few Frozen offerings in the Norway Pavilion at EPCOT, but as the franchise expands, there are definitely more opportunities to come.

Tangled

Do you know which character we’ve been hoping would get more in-park representation for YEARS? Rapunzel! In Disney World, all she gets is a character meet, some entertainment appearances, and a set of bathrooms. There’s so much potential for what could be done with the Tangled characters!

Tokyo DisneySea is getting a Fantasy Springs expansion with an area themed to Tangled, and we’ll be interested to see what it entails. For years, we’ve been dreaming of a boat ride with Rapunzel, Flynn, and the floating lanterns — please make our dreams come true, Disney World!

Disney Villains

Fans would throw parties in the STREETS if Disney World ever fully decided to commit to a Disney Villains land or expansion. Many have hoped over the years that we could get an entire “Dark Kingdom” theme park, but at the very least, a villains-based land would be nice.

Sometimes the evil ones are the most relatable

This was thrown around as one of the possibilities for the Magic Kingdom expansion beyond Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. And now that Universal Orlando has announced a “Dark Universe” land for its Epic Universe theme park, this feels more like a possibility.

More Space

Do you know what Disney seems to be stuck on the past few years? SPACE! From Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge to the Galactic Starcruiser to Space 220, there was a while there where we just kept getting space-themed additions. And honestly, if they did another one, we wouldn’t mind it!

Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run

Possibilities for space-themed expansions include IP like Star Wars and Lilo & Stitch, both of which are incredibly popular. They could even do something like Universal does with the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and build a SECOND Galaxy’s Edge in a new park — just themed to a different planet. Now that would be something!

Mickey’s ToonTown…AGAIN

Do you know what we miss incredibly?! Mickey’s ToonTown! This land is still available at Disneyland Park but was removed from Magic Kingdom years ago to make way for the Fantasyland expansion. It would be great to see an improved version return to Disney World in a fifth park.

Mickey and Minnie don’t get the love they deserve in the Disney World parks — they only have ONE ride that they star in! Imagine all the cool Disney nostalgia a land like this could have. And it would be all the more impressive with today’s technology.
