“Walt Disney – A Magical Life” attraction at Disneyland to Use Virtual Queue

July 10, 2025

“Walt Disney – A Magical Life” attraction at Disneyland to Use Virtual Queue! I don’t know about you, but I have been excited for this attraction to open since it was first announced. Walt Disney will be represented with an audio animatronic, yes Walt himself! We had spoke to the president of Disneyland when we were there in May, and he was saying how well the Walt animatronic was coming along. He said being that it was a life like representation of Walt, it had to be done perfectly. I know I can’t wait to see it. Here is what Disney put out that’s important to know for the new attraction.

When it opens July 17, 2025, “Walt Disney – A Magical Life” will launch with a complimentary virtual queue available on the Disneyland app that allows guests to experience the new attraction on Main Street, U.S.A., at Disneyland Park.  A standby queue will not be available if a virtual queue is being utilized.

Virtual Queue Details:

Stay tuned for more info as we get it!
