What is the Disney plan to expand?

In a dramatic expansion of its theme parks, products and cruise line business, The Walt Disney Co. says that it will spend $60 billion over the next 10 years to turbocharge growth in the lucrative division. That is nearly double its investment compared to the prior 10-year period, the company says.



In 2026, Disney is actively executing its "Turbocharge" expansion strategy, a massive $60 billion investment over the next decade. The primary focus is on expanding capacity and storytelling within existing parks. At Walt Disney World, this includes the highly anticipated "Beyond Big Thunder" project in Magic Kingdom, which aims to create the largest expansion in the park's history with new lands possibly themed around Disney Villains. In Animal Kingdom, the "Tropical Americas" land is replacing DinoLand U.S.A., introducing Encanto and Indiana Jones attractions. Internationally, Disneyland Paris is moving forward with its Disney Adventure World rebranding and the inclusion of a World of Frozen land. The strategy also heavily incorporates the "DisneylandForward" initiative in California, which seeks to rezone land for a mix of theme park, hotel, and retail space. This global push is designed to leverage Disney's massive library of intellectual property while increasing park efficiency through advanced tech and higher-capacity ride systems to meet growing global demand.
