Disney shares more details about the new Zootopia land

There will be so much to see and explore in the new Zootopia land! Let’s take a look at attractions, dining, character meets, and more.

Zootopia Land

You are invited to experience the animal filled Zootopia metropolis “where anyone can be anything.” A new major attraction will incorporate Disney storytelling and state-of-the-art technology to bring these popular furry characters to life.

Not only that, but guests will also enjoy entertainment, merchandise, and food and beverage offerings in this new land. This will be the first time Zootopia is represented in a Disney theme park other than character sightings and meetings.

Save the day on Zootopia: Hot Pursuit Attraction

Get ready to become a rookie police officer at the Zootopia Police Department (ZPD)! Set after the Walt Disney Animation Studios film’s timeline, residents of Zootopia are gearing up for a big concert celebrating Zootopia Day featuring Gazelle.

When you walk into the ZPD for orientation, you’ll be greeted by Officer Clawhauser. Suddenly, an alarm sounds and you’ll be whisked away to an emergency briefing delivered by Chief Bogo where you’ll learn that Gazelle has been kidnapped — on the day of the anticipated concert!

Before you know it, you’ll be assigned to back up Officer Judy Hopps and her partner, Nick Wilde, now officially a police officer, in an action-filled police chase. Here you will traverse across Zootopia’s iconic terrains, sliding across the ice of Tundra Town, prowling for fugitives through the streets of Sahara Square, sharing a too-close-for-comfort encounter at Mystic Springs Oasis, and plummeting from the canopies of the Rainforest District all in pursuit of Bellwether and her gang to track down Gazelle.

Meet and interact with many of your favorite characters from Zootopia

One-of-a-kind live entertainment experiences await, bringing Disney Animation’s Zootopia and its residents to life! Catch a glimpse of many of your favorite characters, including

• Fru Fru and her father Mr. Big
• Koslov the polar bear
• Flash the sloth
• Yax the yak
• Duke Weaselton the weasel
• Hopps family who appear to interact amongst themselves (and sometimes even with you!) throughout the day from the windows of Zootopia’s beautifully iconic buildings.

You’ll also be able to take a selfie with Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde at the Zootopia Recruitment Station. Who wouldn’t want a photo with this fun duo?!

Familiar treats and shopping awaits

So many delicious Zootopified food and beverage offerings await at Jumbeaux’s Cafe, an ice cream shop that fans of the movie may recognize.

Enjoy a sweet yet tart paw-shaped Disney Zootopia popsicle, as seen in the Walt Disney Animation Studios film, grab a Chocolate Marshmallow to fuel your park adventures, or try Officer Clawhauser’s favorite donuts!

After satisfying your taste buds, why not indulge in a little shopping? Head into Fashions by Fru Fru, owned by resident fashionista, Fru Fru, which is right by the entrance of Mane Street. Shop for the perfect gifts for family and friends amongst hundreds of different themed products including the Zootopia Cute collection as well as fun new headwear, apparel, accessories and more.

Inside the store, you’ll also find two special areas themed after Yax and Duke Weaselton.

When and where can you experience Zootopia land?

All of that sounds incredible, right?! If you want to experience all that the new Zootopia land has to offer, you won’t have to wait too much longer.

Zootopia will open later this year at the Shanghai Disney Resort! We will surely hear a bit more about this land at the D23 event coming up this weekend.
