Tokyo DisneySea is expanding and there are lots of exciting works in the pipeline. You already know about the upcoming attractions that will recreate the magical worlds of ‘Frozen’, ‘Tangled’ and ‘Peter Pan’, set to open in 2022. To tide you over the long wait, this Disney landmark by the Tokyo Bay is launching a new feature next month on July 23.
A highly popular attraction at Shanghai Disneyland Park and Disneyland California Adventure, Soarin’ Around the World will finally be available at Tokyo DisneySea. Moreover, it will feature new scenes and visuals created exclusively for Tokyo.

Before boarding the ride, you’ll walk through the Museum of Fantastic Flight, which explores humankind’s dream of flying. The central figure here is the fictional character Camellia Falco, who was an innovator in the field of aviation. She was the inventor of the Dream Flyer, the old-time glider featured at this Disney attraction. You’ll learn more about this amazing flying vehicle before going on a five-minute flight around the world.
