Originally scheduled to open in 2022, it’s likely the push back to 2023 is due to COVID-19 slowing down progress for months. We’re enjoying Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and while it’s a few years off, we’re excited west coast Disney fans will have the fun attraction as well!
