Disney Parks Blog officially announced the upcoming Walt Disney World Resort restaurant, Woody’s Roundup Rodeo BBQ, all the way back in 2019. Unfortunately, like a lot of other projects at Disney, construction on the project was delayed during Disney World’s pandemic-related shutdown in 2020. This meant that its opening date was pushed back until 2022.
For those who don’t know, Toy Story Land can be found at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, featuring rides like Slinky Dog Dash and Toy Story Mania.
“Using some of his favorite toys, games, and playsets, Andy has created a rodeo arena for his toys … and all honorary toys visiting Andy’s backyard,” stated Disney while discussing this new location. “Chow down on house-smoked meats, a roundup of sides, sweet surprises, and more in this western-themed family-style restaurant, where you’ll see the world through the eyes of Andy’s toys.”
Of course, Guests can also experience classic rides at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, like Tower of Terror and Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, or watch Fantasmic!, the jaw-dropping nighttime show held at the Park.
As we stated earlier, the Walt Disney World has a lot going on right now. At Magic Kingdom, Disney is about to welcome a brand-new roller coaster called TRON Lightcycle/Run. This new ride can be found in Tomorrowland, next to Space Mountain. It’s set to open in April.
