    As a significant milestone before the new land officially welcomes its first guests, Shanghai Disney Resort today unveiled exciting creative highlights of the world's first Zootopia-themed land, which will also become the eighth themed land inside the resort's Shanghai Disneyland park. The highlights include:
    - A fully activated themed land
    - Cheerful Humor and Cultural Elements

    landscapes.

    The Big Chase, one of the major scenes in Zootopia: Hot Pursuit.


    Upon entering the land, you will be immediately immersed in Zootopia.

    In the Tiger Dance Club, Gazelle's famed tiger dancers can be seen dancing and celebrating Zootopia Day alongside
    a wide variety of animals.

    Invitations are being sent out for a "Creative Preview" of the upcoming Zootopia area, which will take place on September 5.

  5. I'm curious too about the opening date. Does anyone know something about that? I will be visiting Hong Kong and Shanghai in December, all the way from Spain So it would be amazing to see Frozen land in Hong Kong and Zootopia in Shanghai!

  6. Any guesses on if this still opens this year? Planning a trip to Shanghai in December and hoping we can see this, but no official updates since July 2022 doesn't bode super well. Especially since they're not shy at promoting the Frozen construction in Hong Kong.

  7. Anyway it's academic at this point I suppose, it's not like they will expand the land just to add something as basic as a carousel. If the one ride they do have proves a massive hit, maybe they will build something else, a C or D ticket, to absorb part of the traffic into the land. That's one of the things Animal Kingdom got right with the Pandora land; Flight of Passage is obviously the big hitter but a good number of people, who might not have researched the park as thoroughly, get diverted into Na'vi River Journey. FoP queues are already enormous, imagine if the land didn't have a second ride. (It has to be said, though, that River is so short that people are out again in a flash.)

    I agree that they can make "auto-themed" flat rides that are technically still "immersive," e.g., Dino-Rama at Disney's Animal Kingdom being themed as a carnival, but IMHO that usually comes across as a transparent retroactive rationalization to install inexpensive amusement park rides in a themed environment (or, worse, the backstory isn't obvious to guests, who thus interpret it simply as a non-immersive amusement park within a theme park, e.g., Dino-Rama again).

    That said, something like what you suggested - a carousel in a park-themed subsection - would probably be among the least-intrusive / most-successfully-fitting options.

    Right, but wouldn't a Zootopia Carousel not have animals on it since they are animals. Would it have people? That's weird....
