These range from new worlds to explore to thrilling new rides to conquer.However, to make room for these new experiences, Disney World will be saying goodbye to a number of classic attractions and locations, especially inside its Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom theme parks.Disney laid out most of its plans during the company’s D23 event in August 2024. Fans watching the conference in person or online were stunned to hear confirmation of the long-rumored Villains land for Magic Kingdom. Fans were likely just as surprised to hear news of a new 3D theater show replacing It’s Tough to Be a Bug at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.However, the biggest news of the night involved Disney’s Hollywood Studios, specifically the park’s Muppet-themed area, Muppets Courtyard. During the show, Disney announced Monstropolis, a Monsters Inc.-themed land, would be coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios.The announcement was met with excitement, followed by worry, as fans put the pieces together, trying to figure out what would be closing to make room for this new land.Eventually, Disney confirmed Muppets Courtyard would close permanently to make way for Monstropolis. To say this news came as a shock would be an understatement, with many fans still not over the loss of classic attractions and locations like PizzeRizzo and Muppet*Vision 3D.However, the Muppets aren’t leaving the park; they are simply just moving.Credit: DisneyRelated: Disney World Confirms Fate of Pirates of the Caribbean After Theme Park CancelationAfter D23, Disney revealed that Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster would also be closing.
