New Typhoon Lagoon Attraction to be Called 'Miss Fortune Falls'; World of Color and More Returning to Disneyland, and More

New Typhoon Lagoon Attraction to be Called 'Miss Fortune Falls':



Last month it was discovered through a permit that Disney would be building a new family water attraction at Typhoon Lagoon. We now know that it will be called, ' Miss Fortune Falls.' The ride will be completed by Spring 2017.

A description of the ride was released on the Disney Parks Blog:
Miss Fortune Falls will be a family-style raft attraction that takes guests on a splashing journey through the fabled Captain Mary Oceanear’s past. Legend has it that Captain Oceanear, a treasure-hunting heroine, travelled across the sea collecting unique artifacts before she became stranded at Typhoon Lagoon many years ago by a rogue storm. Onboard treasure rafts, guests will ascend to the top of the attraction before plunging into a white-water adventure where they will be able to spot some of the treasures Captain Oceanear gathered from around the world.
With a ride time of two minutes, Miss Fortune Falls will be among the lengthiest attractions at both Disney Water Parks.
Miss Fortune Falls is sure to be an amazing attraction for all families to enjoy. 2017 is sure to be an exciting year at Disney World.

World of Color, Fantasy in the Sky Fireworks Returning to Disneyland Resort:


The set date for Disneyland's Diamond Celebration to end has been known for awhile in September 5. Rumors have long been swirling that also ending would be the World of Color: Celebrate and the Disneyland Forever fireworks would be ending as well due to budget cuts. Today, all of that was confirmed as the original World of Color will be returning to Disney California Adventure. This will begin September 6.

The Disneyland Forever fireworks have long been rumored to be cut. With today's announcement, Disneyland will see the return of the Fantasy in the Sky fireworks. These will be shown Friday through Sunday beginning September 9. 

The most heartbreaking of the news however as it was just confirmed by @DisneylandToday on Twitter is that Paint the Night will also be ending on September 5. We however don't know the details of what will take its place or if it will be moved to another Disney Park. Paint the Night was a lot of guests favorite parade when it debuted last year at the kickoff of the Diamond Celebration. 

Stay tuned for more details on the fate of Paint the Night as we learn more.
