As much as we may like to, we can’t always be at Walt Disney World. So I’ve put together the next best thing! Join me for a virtual tour of Hollywood Studios, including the attractions and shows that make this park truly magical.
Hollywood Studios opened at Walt Disney World Resort in 1989. It invites you to step into your favorite Disney films, celebrating popular stories and making you feel like a Hollywood star from the moment you first step foot in the park. It offers nine themed lands:
- Hollywood Boulevard
- Sunset Boulevard
- Animation Courtyard
- Pixar Place
- Toy Story Land
- Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
- Grand Avenue
- Echo Lake
- Commissary Lane
You can learn more about Hollywood Studios here.
Virtual tours are a great way to explore the parks from home. Set the scene with some Mouse Ears, a few Mickey-shaped treats, and Disney-inspired outfits. Keep a notebook handy to write down ideas for things you see that you’d love to include in your next visit to Hollywood Studios.
Let’s get started!
