Scouting for Shanghai Disney began in 1999 but the park didn’t open until 2016. Iger was involved in the project the entire time. During the Grand Opening Gala for the park, Iger said:

“17 years ago, I stood on this site for the very first time, looking out over the horizon and imagining the future. I allowed myself to dream big, envisioning a destination that would re-define the limits of our creativity and innovation — and what we have accomplished here far exceeds even my wildest dreams. I know everyone involved feels the same way. We can’t wait to share it with the people of China, and welcome the whole world to this very special place.”


When he visited during the 7th anniversary, Iger shared a couple of photos on Twitter.

“Had a great visit to Shanghai Disneyland 7 years after opening. Great to see cast members and guests!”
