Magic of Disney Animation Building Receives New Paint Job at Hollywood Studios

Fresh Coat of Paint Unveiled for Magic of Disney Animation Building

A fresh splash of peach paint now adorns the upper trim of The Magic of Disney Animation building. Located in the Animation Courtyard at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, this structure—formerly home to Star Wars Launch Bay—is sporting a subtly updated look as part of its ongoing maintenance.

The building’s facade continues its colorful transformation with peach accents now flanking the large central columns. This follows a busy month of updates: those same columns were painted beige just weeks ago, while the railings along the overhang received a fresh coat of green. Interestingly, the project appears to be a work in progress—while the right overhang has been transitioned to beige, the left side currently remains gray.

The building’s transformation will culminate with the addition of a giant Sorcerer Mickey hat nestled between the pillars. This design choice mirrors the architectural signature of the Roy E. Disney Animation Building, bridging the gap between the Hollywood Studios park and the company’s actual animation headquarters.

May 26 marks the opening of Disney Jr. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Live! and the debut of the refreshed Animation Courtyard. While we’re still waiting on an opening date for The Magic of Disney Animation, the attraction is confirmed to feature six new meet-and-greets, an Olaf-hosted art class, and a playground themed after Mary Blair’s Alice in Wonderland art.
