In December, Walt Disney Imagineering celebrated its golden anniversary, marking 50 years since Walt Disney personally hand-picked some of his studio’s most creative people to develop a top-secret project that would become Disneyland. Imagineering has since gone on to build 10 theme parks around the world, with its 11th on the way. Today, Walt Disney Imagineers proudly continue their founder’s legacy of combining fantastic imagination and innovative technology to immerse guests in some of the world’s best storytelling.

Walt Disney Imagineers are bringing the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror to Disney’s California Adventure, promising all the thrills and excitement of the original attraction at the Disney-MGM Studios, but with a West Coast twist. Scheduled to open in 2004, the 180-foot-tall Hollywood Tower Hotel will add a new dimension to the Hollywood Pictures Backlot with its Southwest-Deco style architecture and a chilling new scene that will “heighten” the guests’ experience.

A new ride-through attraction, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, is coming later this spring. The family attraction follows the characters on their adventures during a blustery day in the Hundred Acre Wood. Riding in bouncy beehive-themed vehicles, guests will experience the fun of Pooh’s world, come face to face with the honey-stealing Heffalumps and Woozles, and take part in a birthday party for Pooh.
