When do people reckon this is going to open, out of interest? Only asking because my family and I are going in April 2019, and I wouldn't want to miss out on this ride!

Don't expect it to be open in April. This is looking like a late-Summer addition at earliest.

Ah right, thanks @Nick!

I'm seeing it reported around the net today that this attraction will be coming to Disneyland in a few years. I find this frustrating for 2 major reasons:

1. It will mean Hollywood Studios has one less unique attraction.
2. Disneyland's version is not replacing anything substantial, but is instead an actual addition. So we lose Hollywood Studios' thesis statement ride, but Disneyland gets the new build. Typical.

How do they even have any room out there?

It is said to be going in Toontown near city hall which is currently just a façade covering a backstage area which they will relocate to make room for the ride.
I am very happy about this development since Toontown is the only place I can see Roger anymore.
Hopefully this is a sign that they will be sprucing this area of the park up rather than getting rid of it which was the other rumor floating around a while back.

So they're not closing Toontown, they're just putting Runaway in the area? I always wished we had gotten Toontown.

Who is we? Because Orlando had one for years.

Eh, a discount version of it.

Not even remotely comparable.

Orlando had Mickey's BirthdayLand, then they decided to keep it, made it Mickey's Starland (I think?), then finally "Toontown"

Yup. Not the same lands at ALL.

Kinda funny that even with the re-do as Fantasyland 2.0's circus theme they kept the temporary tent looking structures going just like Mickey's Birthdayland. Guess that corner of the park is just cursed to be tents.

 

[ChrisFL]

Are you saying it's all too In tents?


....I'll show myself out

Wasn't somebody asking about denim jackets the other day?

Looks like they just confirmed a Fall opening at the Destination D event.

 

[belloq87]

Yeah, Chapek apparently said it's "about a year away" from opening.

This really should have been opening for the summer, but hey, it's Disney!
