A rumor emerged several months ago that a new roller coaster may be on its way to Shanghai Disneyland. It may be the very project that is being announced here, but only time will tell.

Shanghai Disney Resort also provided an update on their upcoming 3rd resort hotel:

In August 2023 leaders from Shanghai Disney Resort’s joint venture shareholders broke ground on construction work for the resort’s third Disney-themed hotel. This week the hotel development project management team completed piling work, a key phase in advance of the start of superstructure construction. Located on the shores of Wishing Star Lake, when completed the 400-room hotel will provide guests with even more accommodation options.
