The separately ticketed event features a lineup of new things including meet-and-greets, food and drinks and entertainment.

This fall, EPCOT will play host to the Disney100 celebration. The limited-time celebration, which honors the centennial of the Walt Disney Company, is set to begin at the theme park on Sept. 22. Festivities include new murals, décor, exclusive food and drinks and meet-and-greets.

Also at EPCOT, guests will soon get the chance to splash around at the self-guided trail: Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana. The new experience, which is scheduled to open sometime this fall, will allow guests to explore and engage with water as it travels from our skies to the ocean. The new experience will be located in the newly created World Nature neighborhood of the theme park.

First announced last year, Figment is also scheduled to get his own meet-and-greet at EPCOT sometime this year, although a date has not been announced yet.

Disney said later this fall, it also expects to complete the construction of the World Celebration neighborhood. This new area will feature seasonal gardens, the all-new Communicore Hall, Communicore Plaza and Dreamers Point, an inspiring overlook showcasing a statue of Walt Disney called “Walt the Dreamer.” Guests will also get the chance to see an all-new nighttime spectacular in World Showcase Lagoon.

Following its spooktacular fall events, Walt Disney World will roll into the holiday season with seasonal events including the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays, Jollywood Nights at Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom.

Attractions and experiences that opened this year

TRON Lightcycle / Run

On April 4, Walt Disney World opened TRON Lightcycle / Run at Magic Kingdom. The attraction is one of the fastest coasters at any Disney theme park in the world. Families fly through a dark, computerized world as they compete to be the first to race through eight Energy Gates and claim victory. The attraction can be found in Tomorrowland.

Guests need to have a virtual return time or purchase a Lighting Lane time through Disney Genie to ride the attraction.

Roundup Rodeo BBQ restaurant

Over in Toy Story Land at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, families are now dining in a rodeo-style environment. Walt Disney World opened the Rodeo Roundup BBQ restaurant back in March. First announced in 2019, the restaurant plates up barbecue-inspired comfort foods served family-style, including house-smoked meats, sides and some miniature desserts.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park 25th Anniversary

Disney’s Animal Kingdom celebrated its 25th anniversary this year. Back in April, the theme park went wild with special experiences and entertainment.

The theme park first opened to guests in 1998, and since that time, the park has evolved and entertained guests through new and immersive magical experiences. The theme park also added a Moana character meet-and-greet to an area in Discovery Island, just steps from Flame Tree Barbecue.

Universal Orlando

Illumination’s Villain-Con Minion Blast

The minions are taking over Universal Orlando on Aug. 11. The all-new Minion Land at Universal Studios Florida features the all-new attraction: “Illumination’s Villain-Con Minion Blast.” When guests step onto the newly created “Illuminations Avenue,” they will not only find the immersive new experience, but also the unique Minion Café, various eateries, shopping and entertainment offerings inspired by some of Illumination’s hit films and character meet-and-greets at the new Illuminations Theater.

SeaWorld Orlando

Pipeline: The Surf Coaster

SeaWorld Orlando debuted its latest roller coaster, “Pipeline: The Surf Coaster” back in May. The innovative design elements that make this a first-of-its-kind roller coaster are the surfing launch and “wave jumping” motions that riders will experience. The unique surfboard-shaped ride vehicle will also give guests an immersive experience from the moment the ride starts.

Busch Gardens Tampa Bay

Serengeti Flyer

Over at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, the park will welcomed the Serengeti Flyer this past spring. The attraction is one of the world’s tallest and fastest ride of its kind. With each swing, riders soar higher and higher above Busch Gardens Tampa Bay’s expansive 65-acre Serengeti Plain while experiencing multiple negative-G moments before plunging back toward the Earth. Serengeti Flyer features twin dueling arms that soar progressively higher, reaching speeds of 68 mph and a maximum height of 135 feet at the ride’s peak.

Guests are seated back-to-back in rows of 10 across two gondolas, allowing for 40 guests to experience the ride at once.

Legoland Florida

Pirate River Quest

A brand-new, swashbuckling quest awaits families visiting LEGOLAND Florida. The park opened its Pirate River Quest early this year. Captain-driven boats navigate guests through the natural passageways of Lake Eloise and the historic Cypress Gardens. Guests look to uncover the lost treasure of Captain Redbeard.

The attraction has exciting sequences that tell the tale of a rowdy Lego pirate crew, a troop of mischievous monkeys and even a fearsome kraken.

Gatorland

Croc Rock

Gatorland is taking your adventure skills to new heights in an all-new experience. Back in March, the “Alligator Capital of the World,” announced the addition of the new interactive three-in-one experience called Croc Rock. Leaders said guests will ascend a 32-foot Croc Rock wall, cross a 150-foot swinging chain bridge and then take a 350-feet ride on a zipline.
