Shanghai Disney Resort Construction Update
Shanghai, March 11, 2024 – 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.
Since the resort’s opening in June 2016, the resort’s Shanghai Disneyland theme park has already undergone two expansions, with the opening of Disney·Pixar Toy Story Land in April 2018, and the opening of a second new themed land, Zootopia, in December 2023.
As the resort enters the Year of the Dragon, resort shareholders and management continue to show optimism about Shanghai Disneyland. Recently, the resort began initial preparation work for construction of a separately themed attraction to be located within Shanghai Disneyland, adjacent to Zootopia. The project work is at the initial planning stage and resort shareholders and management look forward to providing more updates as work progresses in the future.
The latest expansion plans demonstrate Shanghai Disney Resort’s commitment to providing new offerings and developing the resort as a multi-day tourism destination for guests from near and far
