San Fransokyo Square Officially Opens Today at Disney’s California Adventure

Opening on August 31, 2023, at Disney’s California Adventure, the San Fransokyo Square is a captivating attraction situated within the Disneyland Resort. Drawing inspiration from the dynamic city showcased in Walt Disney Animation Studios’ acclaimed film “Big Hero 6,” this revitalized space offers an array of captivating sights, immersive shopping experiences, and delectable cuisine.

Bringing to life a futuristic vision not far from our present, San Fransokyo Square ingeniously merges two iconic metropolises – San Francisco and Tokyo. Visitors are transported into this imaginative blend of cultures, where they can engage with the brilliant young inventor Hiro Hamada and his endearing healthcare companion robot, Baymax.

At the heart of this remarkable setting stands the towering San Fransokyo Gate Bridge, an impressive 54-foot structure that spans across tide pools, seamlessly connecting the coastal plaza to the elegant obelisk of Paradise Gardens Park. Stepping into the vibrant marketplace, guests are greeted by local establishments adorned with expressive street art and vibrant banners, all commemorating the triumph of the Big Hero 6 team over Yokai.
