First Steel Column Installed at Shanghai Disneyland’s Zootopia Land!

Development of Judy and Nick’s new home in Shanghai Disneyland today reached an exciting milestone, as the first steel column of the Zootopia-themed land was installed – marking the commencement of vertical construction at Shanghai Disneyland’s newest themed land. In longstanding Disney tradition, prior to installation, this first steel column was signed by leaders and representatives from the resort, the Administrative Commission of Shanghai International Resort, Shanghai Shendi Group, and Walt Disney Imagineering, which is responsible for the design and development of the new themed land.

The steel column installed today is an integral part of our new land which is sure to offer incredible adventures to our guests for years to come. We have every confidence in our continued success and we are looking forward to creating even more excitement and bringing many more unique Disney stories to our guests.”

Since the commencement of main construction on the Zootopia-themed land in December 2019, the land has already witnessed several important milestones, including the commencement and completion of piling work earlier this year, which strengthens the foundations of the buildings that will line the streets of the Zootopia-themed land. With piling work now complete, this latest update to the Zootopia-themed land’s construction story is an exciting sign that the new land is getting closer and closer to the day when guests from near and far can experience the global premiere.
