This update comes days before Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Square Riverboat close forever, making way for two new Cars (2006) attractions in Frontierland. Walt Disney Imagineering first announced the reimagining at D23 Expo 2024. It comes amid a years-long overhaul in Frontierland, which saw Splash Mountain transformed into Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, the closure of the Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade for a Disney Vacation Club (DVC) lounge, and the premiere of the refreshed Country Bear Musical Jamboree. In January, the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad roller coaster also closed for a year-long refurbishment to add “new magic” to the decades-old attraction.

Inspired by the natural beauty of America’s national parks, the area will feature nods to the original Frontierland area, including barrel bridges, water features, and parts of the Rivers of America. Walt Disney Imagineers have promised to keep sightlines in mind while building the expansive area, featuring a thrilling rally race ride and another family-friendly attraction. Tom Sawyer Island, the Liberty Square Riverboat, and the Rivers of America will close permanently this weekend ahead of the construction. Days before the closures, crews have cut down hundreds of trees behind Frontierland at Magic
