Also, Disney Parks Blog readers were among the first to learn that we’re expanding Soarin’ in Epcot and Toy Story Mania! at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. We are adding another theater at Soarin’ and more midway track at Toy Story Mania. We’ll also be updating the screens and projection system at Soarin,’ bringing a visually enhanced experience.
The expansions are expected to be complete by late 2016.
