Mickey and Minnie Mouse welcome excited guests at the iconic entrance to Tokyo Disneyland, setting the scene for an unforgettable 2023 adventure at Tokyo Disney Resort. Beloved Disney characters join them in the background, capturing the magic and vibrant energy of this celebrated Japanese destination.

Oriental Land Company, which operates Tokyo Disney Resort, is reportedly planning a major expansion to the theme park.

According to reports, the company wants to add a new Japanese-themed park, similar to Disney California Adventure. Oriental Land could spend over 300 billion yen ($2.68 billion) to build new attractions and character experiences, easing congestion within the park.

The park’s area would grow around 30% with new attractions geared toward domestic and international tourists expected to open around 2023. This would be the resort’s most expensive expansion since Tokyo DisneySea opened in 2001, which cost around 340 billion yen.

Tokyo Disneyland’s entrance gate at Tokyo Disney Resort, decked out for the park’s spectacular 30th anniversary in 2023, displays favorite Disney characters and dazzling decor that capture the magic of this beloved Japanese destination.

More details on the potential new expansion are expected by May 2018.
