This might be a little bit of an exaggeration, but Disney World is just one big construction site right now! Tropical Americas in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Monstropolis in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Piston Peak (with Villains Land on the way) in Magic Kingdom. What if we told you that it doesn’t stop there?!

Hollywood Studios

Back in May of this year, we saw that Walt Disney Imagineering had filed two construction permits for the area between the Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular and the Backlot Express restaurant. The project is under the codename “Project Fedora”. We’ve come to suspect that the codename is related to the most popular fedora-wearing character we know, Indiana Jones. Well, Disney has FINALLY announced what Project Fedora is!

Say hello to the Epic Jr. Stunt Spectacular! This new play area is expected to open in the coming months and is “inspired by the spirit of the iconic stunt show; this outdoor playground will give kids the chance to embrace their inner explorer, with interactive elements and themed play structures that bring action and storytelling to life.”

We’re just thinking about how much Disney’s Hollywood Studios has changed since the beginning of this year. Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster now features the Muppets. There’s a Walt Disney Studios courtyard with a new building to show off The Magic of Disney Animation. Smugglers Run now features the Mandalorian and Grogu. Now, Project Fedora and Monstropolis are on their way!

This also isn’t the first new playground in Hollywood Studios! We fell in love with Drawn to Wonderland in The Magic of Disney Animation at Walt Disney Studios, which is entirely themed to Mary Blair’s original concept art for Alice in Wonderland.

We played on the slides, had a drink at the Mad Tea Party, a nd sometimes you can even catch the Mad Hatter and Alice hanging around. It’s been such a fun addition to Hollywood Studios, and we think this new playground will be too.
