Disney Experiences Unveils Unprecedented Expansions at its Parks and Resorts

Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro unveiled an unprecedented slate of projects including new attractions, lands, and more.

Villains, Cars, and the Largest Expansion at Magic Kingdom Ever

The world’s most-visited theme park will be getting its largest land expansion ever with Disney’s iconic villains and its hit franchise Cars moving into the Magic Kingdom.

The expansion at Magic Kingdom — the keystone park of Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida — will bring new and beloved stories to life as Disney Imagineers craft a land based on the wickedly wonderful Disney villains you just love to loathe. While more details are coming, this new land is underway with two new attractions planned as well as dining, shopping and more.

“Since the beginning, our Disney Villains have given us endless possibilities to tell new stories,” D’Amaro said. “In this new land, you’ll see storytelling on a grand scale that only Disney can deliver.”

Away from those vicious villains, Cars is also racing into the Magic Kingdom. In a reimagined section of Frontierland, guests will leave Radiator Springs behind and head off into the wilderness with two new Cars attractions — one that will be an off-road thrilling rally race, and a family-friendly attraction that even the youngest racers will love.

Cars is one of Disney’s most popular franchises, bringing in $1.4 billion at the global box office and inspiring the beloved Radiator Springs at Disney California Adventure Park in Anaheim, California.

“As we develop the next generation of Disney Experiences, we’re always looking for new ways to tell the stories people love,” D’Amaro said. “We’re thrilling Cars fans by building on this incredibly successful franchise and creating the next chapter in this story.”

Disney’s Lightning Lane Multi Pass Info and Tiers

The new ‘Lightning Lane Multi Pass’ and ‘Lightning Lane Single Pass’ allows guests to pay an additional fee to skip some of the lines at various attractions within Disney’s theme parks. If you are familiar with the old FastPass+ system then Multi Pass works in a very similar way except now it is no longer free.

1. Onsite guests can purchase and make their Lightning Lane selections 7 days in advance and offsite guests can purchase and make their Lightning Lane selections 3 days in advance.

2. Purchase of Multi Pass and Lightning Lanes are made using Disney’s App (My Disney Experience)

3. Currently you need to be within the U.S.A or Canada to purchase and make Multi Pass experiences.

4. You can choose up to 3 attractions to experience at select times

5. You can choose 1 selection from ‘Tier One’ and 2 selections from ‘Tier Two’, see below for the Tier attractions

6. You can choose your Multi Pass experiences with return times before you actually pay.

7. You can only hold a maximum of 3 experiences, you can make an additional selection once you have used your first experience.

8. If one of your selected experiences expires before you enter the park you will not be able to make additional selection until you have entered the park.

9. Parades, Fireworks and Character Meet and Greets are currently not available as Lightning Lane Multi Pass selections.

10. If you have your first Multi Pass experience in a park that is cheaper, once you have checked in to that park and used your first Multi Pass experience you can then select Multi Pass experiences for a different park, providing you have park hopping on your ticket. You will not be charged extra if the other park’s multi pass is more expensive. So for example on launch day Multi Pass at Animal Kingdom was $18 and Magic Kingdom was $29. If you purchased Multi Pass for Animal Kingdom at $18 used your first Multi Pass experience in Animal Kingdom then selected Multi Pass experiences for Magic Kingdom, there is no extra charge.

Disney’s NEW Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass

Disney is renaming and changing its Genie+ service to Disney’s Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass starting 24th July 2024. Disney’s Lightning Lanes allow guests to bypass the standby queue and join a separate queue (for a shorter wait time) for select attraction and entertainment experiences. Guests can purchase a Lightning Lane Multi Pass which can be used for multiple rides and attractions or they can purchase a Lightning Lane Single Pass which can only be used for a single ride or attraction. Guests can purchase either or both types of pass. 

Lightning Lane Multi Pass 

When you purchase Lightning Lane Multi Pass, you may make up to 3 Lightning Lane selections in a theme park, in advance of your visit. You’ll also be able to choose available times as you make your selections.

On the day of your visit, once you use a selection, check the My Disney Experience app for availability to make an additional selection.

Lightning Lane Single Pass 

Lightning Lane Single Pass will work much like it does today, where you can secure a time to ride one of our most highly demanded attractions, but you’ll now be able to make your purchase and plan in advance.  

How to Plan Ahead

Guests staying at a Disney Resort hotel and other select hotels will be able to plan Lightning Lane passes up to 7 days in advance, for their entire stay (up to 14 days). All other guests can plan up to 3 days in advance.

These advance purchase windows will let guests secure some of their must-do rides and experiences after they’ve had some time to decide what dining reservations they want to book and any other plans they may need to consider.

Guests may purchase a Lightning Lane Multi Pass, a Lightning Lane Single Pass or both. The app will also be updated to make it quicker and easier to purchase and plan, with fewer steps and a new option to purchase Lightning Lane Single Pass and Lightning Lane Multi Pass in one transaction.

Lightning Lane passes will blend features from the previously offered Genie+ and FastPass+ services, giving guests the choice to plan ahead and removing the hassle of planning during their vacation.
