Get ready to head “to infinity and beyond” as you step into the world of one of DisneyโขPixar’s most famous films, Toy Story! As you enter Toy Story Land, you’ll be shrunk to the size of Woody and Buddy as you wander through Andy’s oversized toys.
The new land will feature two new rides and an expansion of a guest favorite:
