In our latest visit to Walt Disney World’s Animal Kingdom, we noticed some major expansion to the framework of the upcoming Encanto ride.

Encanto Ride Building Progress

Construction on the new Tropical Americas area of Disney’s Animal Kingdom appears to be moving along at a steady pace.

In our latest visit to the park, we noticed the framework of what appears to the be upcoming Encanto-themed attraction received a sizable expansion outward.

In the images featured here, over the construction walls, the older portion of the structure can be seen to the right.

The newest section of framework is shown jutting out from the taller portion. It can be seen expanding towards the current walking path.

The Encanto attraction will open with the official debut of Tropical Americas in 2027. The land, officially called Pueblo Esperanza, will also feature a carousel.

In our most recent report on developments in the new area, we took a look at various aerial photos shared by X user @bioreconstruct.
