Tokyo Disney Resort celebrates 800 million visitors

Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea have welcomed a combined 800 million visitors since opening in 1983 and 2001, the Tokyo Disney Resort has revealed.






Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea have welcomed a combined 800 million visitors since opening in 1983 and 2001, the Tokyo Disney Resort has revealed.

The resort, located in Tokyo’s Chiba Prefecture, celebrated the milestone at the end of February.

Commenting on the achievement, Kenji Yoshida, representative director, president and COO of Oriental Land Company, Tokyo Disney’s operator, said the resort has “brought happiness to our guests for more than 38 years” and thanked Tokyo Disney’s “countless” visitors, cast members and the Walt Disney Company.

“We will continue our efforts at Tokyo Disney Resort to be a themed resort unlike any other, and hope that your look forward to visiting us.”

Yoshida went on to say that the resort will “continue to evolve” with the additions of the Toy Story-themed hotel and Fantasy Springs.

Launching in April 2022, the Tokyo Disney Resort Toy Story Hotel is designed to make guests feel as if they’re a toy in the Toy Story universe and will include board game-inspired ceilings and flooring designed to resemble a jigsaw puzzle.

Billed as Tokyo DisneySea’s largest expansion ever, Fantasy Springs is a new themed land that will transport guests to the magical worlds depicted in Disney’s Frozen, Tangled and Peter Pan animations.

Scheduled to open in 2023, the ¥250 billion (US$2.17bn, €1.97bn, £1.63bn) themed land will feature three zones and include four attractions as well as shops, restaurants and a luxury hotel, believed to be the resort’s ‘finest’ accommodation offering.
