Tokyo DisneySea’s highly anticipated expansion, “Fantasy Springs,” is set to welcome visitors on June 6, 2024. Representing the most significant expansion ever at Tokyo Disney Resort, the new land promises to immerse guests in the enchanting realms of Frozen, Tangled, and Peter Pan.

The substantial expansion – the park’s 8th port of call, will include four attractions, restaurants, shops, and a luxury hotel overlooking Tokyo DisneySea — which is said to be the most luxurious accommodations at Tokyo Disney Resort!

Fantasy Springs Overview

The Oriental Land Company has announced that Fantasy Springs will open to guests on June 6, 2024!

Originally scheduled to open in 2023, the project was delayed due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. The project is set to cost ¥320 billion (about $2.1 billion USD), and will be the Park’s largest expansion, clocking in at approximately 140,000 square meters.

Here’s a quick rundown of what will be available at Fantasy Springs:

The Fantasy Springs expansion is located in a former parking area between Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea, connected by a passageway between the Arabian Coast and Lost River Delta. (See below)
