Mouse ears, meet expansion plans.
Walt Disney World may be conjuring up a whole new kingdom — its first new park since Animal Kingdom opened in 1998.
According to a long-term blueprint from the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District — dubbed Comprehensive Plan 2045 — the Mouse House has supposedly carved out space for a “major theme park” and two smaller ones, likely water parks, to roll out over the coming decades.
The report earmarks 400 to 500 acres for the possible mega-park, which could stand shoulder to shoulder with Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom in terms of size and spectacle.
Meanwhile, the mini-parks could each splash onto the scene across 147 acres — perfect for water slides, lazy rivers and screaming toddlers in swim diapers.

Supposed land reserved for more hotels, commercial spaces, entertainment zones, and Disney’s famously secret underground tunnels — used by cast members to zip around like pixie-dusted pros.
Disney hasn’t confirmed the project yet, but fans are already dreaming up which characters might headline the House of Mouse’s next big adventure.

However, (to the disappointment of the resort’s fans), a few Disney staples like Rivers of America, Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Square Riverboat are cruising into the sunset this year — all to make room for a revved-up new land: Piston Peak National Park, a high-octane homage to Pixar’s “Cars” franchise.
Longtime fans are also still mourning the loss of Mickey’s Toontown — the zany, mouse-sized village bulldozed in 2011 for Fantasyland’s glow-up.
