001 - Everything You Want To Know About Disney Adventure World Show Notes

SUMMARY
In this episode we’re diving into all the changes coming to Walt Disney Studios Park in Disneyland Paris, and its transformation into Disney Adventure World.
Confirmed Changes [1:35] Why is the name changing from Walt Disney Studios to Disney Adventure World? And what can we expect from the announced World of Frozen, Adventure Bay and World Premier Plaza? All the officially confirmed details will be discussed.

Speculation [5:50] Not everything we hear out there is officially confirmed. Ahead of August’s D23, we’ll go into some of the rumors around a third land/world in Disney Adventure World, as well as why that probably won’t be Star Wars.

Hopes & Final Thoughts [9:18] Aside from rumors, there’s some stuff I personally hope to see in the renewed park, and I know I’m not the only one. Daydream along with me about what could be next.
