TOMORROWLAND
Debuting in 1998,
the "new" Tomorrowland represents the vision and fantasy of
futurists such as H.G. Wells, Jules Verne and Leonardo da Vinci. Guests
can zoom through Space Mountain, zip above the land in the new Rocket
Rods, experience 3-D fun in "Honey I Shrunk the Audience",
travel through the galaxy in Star Tours, and much more!
ATTRACTIONS
ASTRO ORBITER - Climb
aboard your rocket ship and zoom through space in this orbiting ride.
You can control whether your ship rises or falls as you complete your
circular tour. Guests in wheelchairs must transfer to ride.
AUTOPIA (coming Summer 2000) - Autopia is currently closed for remodeling, and is expected to open this
summer with all new cars and a new, longer raceway!
COSMIC WAVES - This
"dancing waters" fountain is a favorite cooling spot for kids
on hot days.
Disneyland Ò MONORAIL
- Travel above
and through the park on this elevated train to and from the Disneyland Ò
Hotel. During the construction period for Disney's California Adventure,
this ride may not be operational or may be making one-way stops only.
Wheelchair accessible.
"HONEY, I SHRUNK THE
AUDIENCE" - This 3-D film takes you to the Imagination Institute
where Professor Wanye Zelinski is being honored for his scientific
achievements. Mayhem ensues when he demonstrates his shrinking machine!
Be warned - some special effects here are quite realistic, and those
with a fear of mice or snakes should think twice before viewing! This
attraction is wheelchair accessible; reflective captioning,
assistive-listening devices available; and video-captioning available in
select pre-show areas (ask a Cast Member for details).
INNOVENTIONS - Housed in the old
Carousel of Progress building, Innoventions features a variety of
walk-through and interactive exhibits. You first meet Tom Morrow, your
pre-show host, who tells you more about what you'll see. You enter in
one of four areas (since the building still revolves you never know
which area you'll enter first). Once inside, you can explore both
stories filled with live presentations and fast-paced activities. This
attraction is wheelchair accessible, assistive listening devices and
video-captioning available in select pre-show areas (ask a Cast Member
for details).
ROCKET RODS - Using the old People
Mover track, Rocket Rods jet riders throughout Tomorrowland. You'll zip
and pop wheelies as you sharply accelerate and decelerate through the
ride. Although this ride has the fastest speeds of any Disneyland Ò
attraction, it really does not feel that way as the pace quickens and
slows so suddenly throughout the attraction. Minimum height to ride is 46
inches. Guests in wheelchairs must transfer to ride. Guests with back,
neck or heart problems, pregnant women, or those affected by motion
sickness should not ride.
TIP: Like Test Track at EPCOT,
this ride features a single rider's line! If you are willing to be split
up from your party to ride (and it definitely does NOT lessen your ride
experience to do so) once you enter the main building from the queue a
Cast Member will give you a special pass. You then enter through the
gift shop, up the back staircase to the ride, for the special single
riders loading area. This will save you TONS of time and is highly
recommend to avoid a long wait!
SPACE MOUNTAIN - This white-knuckler
coaster twists and turns in near-total darkness and features a
computerized sound system with a soundtrack perfectly choreographed for
your ride! You'll zoom past stars, meteors and comets during this
deep-space adventure. Minimum height to ride 40 inches.
Guests in wheelchairs must transfer to ride. Video-captioning available
in selected pre-show portions (see a Cast Member for details.) Guests
with back, neck or heart problems, pregnant women, or those affected by
motion sickness should not ride.
TIP: Space Mountain features FAST PASS. Use
it to avoid long waits.
STARCADE - This large video arcade
is a favorite of teens. Wheelchair accessible.
STAR TOURS - Get ready for your
trip to the Moon of Endor, but beware - it may just be your pilot's
first trip! This popular motion simulator ride based on the movie Star
Wars will make you feel as if you're really a passenger on this starship
as it dodges giant ice crystals, fights of invaders and travels in warp
speed! Not to worry, somehow you do make it back safely. Minimum height to ride is 40
inches. Guests in wheelchairs must transfer to ride. Video-captioning
available in selected pre-show portions (see a Cast Member for details.)
Guests with back, neck or heart problems, pregnant women, or those
affected by motion sickness should not ride.
RESTAURANTS & REFRESHMENTS
REDD ROCKETT'S PIZZA PORT - This open food court style restaurant features
yummy salads, pasta, pizza and sandwiches as well as children's meals. A
favorite for good, fresh Italian-inspired delights! Healthy options and
vegetarian selections available.
THE SPIRIT OF REFRESHMENT - Sponsored by Coca-Cola, this soft drink vending cart features a launcher
that will shoot the bottle a few feet up without causing any fizz.
TOMORROWLAND TERRACE - This counter
service restaurant features sandwiches, tortilla wraps, burgers, chicken
and other specialties. Healthy options and vegetarian selections
available.
