What’s new at Tokyo Disneyland
3 ride updates, 3 events. Checked November 16, 2026.
New, returning and closing rides
- Opening April 15, 2027
Sugar Rush: Sweet Rescue
Interactive indoor game-style ride themed to Wreck-It Ralph, replacing Buzz Lightyear’s Astro Blasters, which closed in October 2024. The Pixel Prism shop opens the same day.
What it means for lines. A new ride in Tomorrowland will likely draw long waits in its first months, which may shorten waits at nearby rides.

Space Mountain Earthrise
Rebuilt indoor coaster in Tomorrowland with a new story and show elements. The old ride closed July 31, 2024. Tomorrowland Plaza opens around it.
What it means for lines. Expect long standby waits for months after opening, since this is the first return of a signature Tomorrowland ride since 2024.

Never Ending Voyage
For the Christmas season, buy tickets early and avoid weekends. The writers found the first Saturday of the event sold out on the official site when they tried to book that morning. Dress in layers for changeable weather.

That Mum Travel Life
Save your payment card in the Tokyo Disney Resort app before the trip, so you aren’t typing card numbers in the park when Premier Access is selling out. Also let another adult access your plans in case your phone dies.

Wandering In Disney
If you only pay for one Premier Access at Tokyo Disneyland, make it Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast. Buy it as soon as your whole group is inside the park. Arrive about 30 minutes before opening so every option is still available.
