Since its closure in 2021, fans have been waiting for Mickey’s Toontown at Disneyland (DIS) in Anaheim, Calif., to finish its complete makeover.
Then the wait got even longer, when Disney announced that, “Due to heavy winter storms that impacted our construction momentum, we are adjusting the reopening date of Mickey’s Toontown to Mar. 19,” according to a statement made by the park. The original reopening date was scheduled for March 8.
Mickey’s Toontown in Disneyland, inspired by the hit movie, ”Who Framed Roger Rabbit,” has been a staple of the theme park since 1993. Toontown features bright colorful buildings and classic cartoon characters. Walking into Mickey’s Toontown is like stepping right out of real life into a cartoon world.
As with many rides and attractions, it is time to move on from some things after a about three decades of the attraction. It is always time for something new and for a remodel after time, which is an ideology that came from Walt Disney himself.
