Disneyland’s ToonTown closed in early 2022 for an extensive reimagining and reemerged on March 19th of 2023.
The big new ride, Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, opened earlier this year but everything officially reopened yesterday.
In this guide, we’ll take a look at what’s new in Mickey’s hometown, including Goofy’s How-To-Play Yard, a reimagined Donald’s Boat, ToonTown food and picnic options, as well as the fabulous new ride and the new shop!
The new ToonTown is a sprawling enhancement project which has added more green space, trees, interactive play elements, and a new interactive fountain.
While favorites like Mickey and Minnie’s Houses and Roger Rabbit’s Cartoon Spin have remained largely unchanged, other areas have been removed or reworked, such as Goofy’s House, Donald’s Boat, Chip and Dale Treehouse, and Gadget’s GoCoaster.
While the land will feel familiar to guests, there has been a massive amount of change and renovation. Visitors will find wide-open lawns in areas that previously had walkways, much more shade, lots of new trees and gardens, and a much more relaxing park-like vibe. Guests will also be able to rest or picnic on various lawns throughout the land. When this land fully grows in, it’s going to be much more comfortable in the heat of the day.
TOON TIP: Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway offers an extra cost Lightning Lane option or standby. Check the Disneyland app for current wait times as waits vary wildly during the day. And be aware that the entire land shuts down for two hours each night for fireworks.
