Florida's official tourism site removes 'LGBTQ Travel' section
![tsrtc tourism places Visit Florida's LGBTQ section in 2024](https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_fit-560w,f_auto,q_auto:best/rockcms/2024-08/240819-visit-florida-lgbtq-page-2024-aa-425p-0d740a.jpg)
Florida’s official tourism website quietly removed a landing page for the state’s LGBTQ-friendly travel destinations sometime in the past four months.
The website for the state’s tourism marketing corporation, VisitFlorida.com, had an “LGBTQ Travel” section that no longer exists, according to archived versions of the site viewable on the Internet Archive. The landing page previously featured blog posts and videos related to the state’s gay-friendly beaches, Pride events and LGBTQ road trip ideas.
“There’s a sense of freedom to Florida’s beaches, the warm weather and the myriad activities — a draw for people of all orientations, but especially appealing to a gay community looking for a sense of belonging and acceptance,” the landing page used to read. “Whether you’re a couple seeking a romantic getaway or a modern family searching for kid-friendly fun, here are some LGBTQ-friendly destinations for you, throughout the Sunshine State.”
The link where the LGBTQ Travel page had been (https://www.visitflorida.com/things-to-do/cultural/lgbtq/) now directs users to a general “things to do” landing page. It is unclear exactly when the landing page was removed, but it was available as recently as April 19, according to the Internet Archive. It is also unclear why Visit Florida, a nonprofit created as a public-private partnership by the Florida Legislature in 1996, removed the landing page and who was behind the decision.
The website does continue to provide travel information for destinations specific to other minority groups, including Black and Hispanic travelers.
Visit Florida did not immediately return a request for comment.
![tsrtc tourism places Visit Florida's LGBTQ page in 2021](https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_fit-760w,f_auto,q_auto:best/rockcms/2024-08/240819-visit-florida-lgbtq-page-2021-aa-425p-3019a6.jpg)
Rachel Covello runs OutCoast , a travel blog that promotes Florida as an LGBTQ-inclusive destination. Covello, a lesbian who lives in St. Petersburg, said the “LGBTQ Travel” landing page has existed on Visit Florida’s website since at least 2021. She said she first noticed that the landing page was missing last month.
“It really feels like we were just erased in a way,” Covello said.
“We want LGBT people to come here, we have really cool places to highlight and showcase,” she added.“But when the state-run platform removes any trace of us being in Florida, it sends a pretty strong message to our travelers, to our community in Florida.”
Not all references to LGBTQ people or LGBTQ-friendly places have been removed from the site. For example, if one types “LGBT” in the site’s search function, five results pop up, three of them for venues described as “LGBT Friendly.”
Maryann Ferenc, a small business owner who served as the chair of Visit Florida from 2017 to 2018, said there was a lot of LGBTQ-related travel information on the site during her time, including information about suggested itineraries and recommended beaches. She questioned whether stripping the site of its LGBTQ Travel section and other LGBTQ-related content s was a smart business move.
“To be a great tourism community, you need to be open and welcoming. That’s the basics of hospitality, right?” she said. “When I was chair, we talked about, ‘Could we be No. 1 in hospitality? How could we measure being the most hospitable state in the Union?’ This certainly wouldn’t qualify for that.”
Ferenc added that diversifying the state’s tourism industry was one of her main objectives when she led the organization.
“All of our diverse markets are important to us getting all of the business that is our fair share of the statewide, national and international tourism market,” she said. “It’s important that we have that diversity, not only because of the amount of money that will be spent by a diverse market, but by the diverse places in which that money will be spent.”
The removal of the LGBTQ Travel section from VisitFlorida.com is the latest in a yearslong effort to restrict queer history and the expression of LGBTQ identities in the state.
Since 2021, Florida has enacted legislation to limit the instruction of sexual orientation and gender identity in its public schools, to limit the ability of trans minors from accessing transition-related health care or from participating on school sports teams and to defund diversity programs at Florida colleges.
In recent years, Florida lawmakers also unsuccessfully attempted to limit drag shows, an artform that has decades-old roots in the LGBTQ community. Some of the state’s schools have also voluntarily removed or banned LGBTQ-related books or books with queer characters.
Just last week, New College of Florida tossed hundreds of books in the trash , with many of the discarded titles appearing to be related to LGBTQ issues, race and women’s rights.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis notably waged a yearslong legal battle with Disney , which has a massive corporate footprint in the state, after the company came out against the state’s so-called “ Don’t Say Gay ” law. Disney settled with the state this year.
Last year, the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest LGBTQ advocacy group, and the statewide LGBTQ nonprofit Equality Florida issued a travel advisory detailing the risks of traveling to the state and citing “the devastating impacts of laws that are hostile to the LGBTQ community.”
A recent survey of 2,300 LGBTQ Americans by the International LGBTQ+ Travel Association (IGLTA) found that 52% of respondents indicated hesitancy or outright refusal to travel to Florida due to anti-LGBTQ legislation passed in recent years. However, about 66% of respondents also said that they would be willing to visit LGBTQ-friendly cities within states that have anti-LGBTQ laws.
In 2017, within days of former president Trump’s inauguration, his administration similarly scrubbed nearly all mentions of LGBTQ people and issues from the websites of federal agencies and the White House.

Not much has changed at this year’s fair, an event steeped in nostalgia and tradition . But there are a few new attractions on hand and a handful of new food vendors.
And yes, prices are ticking upward. It’ll cost a few bucks more to park and enter the fair this year.
Here’s a rundown of everything you need to know if you’re headed to the fair in the coming days or weeks.

How do I get tickets?
Fair admission is $8 for an adult. Seniors 65 and older get in free. So do kids 12 and under. You can buy tickets online in advance.
You won’t be able to pay cash for tickets at the gate — you’ll need to purchase them on your phone, or using a kiosk at the gate. Your best bet? Get them ahead of time.
The fair is also offering a “frequent fairgoer” ticket for $25 that grants admission all 13 days of the fair.
There are a handful of special days and free admission days for people in certain groups (like military, law enforcement or Native American tribes).
The Wade Shows Midway currently has more than 60 rides, and cost between 3-6 tickets to ride.
- Individual ride tickets can be purchased at any Wade Shows ticket booth during the Fair. It’s $7 for five tickets.
- Wristbands, which grant ride-all-day access, can be purchased online for $28/person (plus fees) until 12 p.m. on Aug. 21. After that, the cost of wristbands goes up to $35 on weekdays, and $45 on weekends.
- Love the rides? Go on Two Dollar Tuesday (Tuesday, Aug. 27) when all rides cost $2. Dollar Day, where all rides cost $1, returns to the Midway on Monday, Sept. 2.

How should I get to the fair?
The state fairgrounds are located at 581 State Fair Blvd. in Geddes.
Parking will run you $12 per car this year, up from $10 in 2023. You can pay with a credit card at the entrance to the parking lot. You can also buy parking passes in advance online.
Drivers can park in the Orange, Brown, Pink and Gray lots, or the lot on Willis Avenue. The fair’s parking lots can hold up to 23,000 vehicles. There’s no overnight parking.
The Orange lot opens daily at 9 a.m. The Brown, Pink and Gray lots open at 6 a.m. The Willis Avenue lot is open at 10 a.m. on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and on Labor Day.
Accessible parking is available to people with the proper license plates or hanging tags in the Pink accessible lot across from Gate 3 off State Fair Boulevard. The Gray accessible lot is on the west end of the fairgrounds, reachable through Gate 6.
Buses run daily to the Fair. For 2024 Centro will provide its popular Park-N-Ride direct shuttle service each day of the Fair from the Centro Transit Hub in downtown Syracuse, Long Branch Park in Liverpool and Destiny USA.
Bus service to the Fair begins at 8:45 a.m. and continues until 8:45 p.m. Return service runs from 9 a.m. and continues until 11:15 p.m. (9:15 p.m. on Labor Day).
To ride the shuttle one way, the fee is $1 for adults, and $.50 for senior citizens, children 6 to 9 years old, and those who are living with disabilities. Children under 6 are free. Parking at Park-N-Ride locations is free.

New York State Fair attendees get on Centro's Orange Lot shuttle bus on Tuesday, Aug. 27, 2019. Shortly after 2 p.m., the wait for the bus at Gate 1 was about five minutes. Teri Weaver | [email protected]
You can take a taxi or rideshare service like Uber or Lyft. Ridesharing and taxi services can pick up and drop off fairgoers inside the Pink lot along State Fair Boulevard between Gates 3 and 4.
You can also bike to the fair. There are bike racks outside gates 1, 3 and 10.
What about those Syracuse e-scooters and e-bikes from Veo? Those will get you close to the fairgrounds, but not quite to the gate. They work only within the city limits, and the fairgrounds are in Geddes. Don’t be surprised if your scooter powers down somewhere along State Fair Boulevard or Bridge Street.
What about transportation on the Fairgrounds?
Trams run continuously on the fairgrounds, stopping at 10 stops from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m.
A dedicated ADA shuttle runs continuously between the Gray accessible lot, located outside Gate 10 to Tram Stop #3 at the Horticulture Building from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m.

Dancers in colorful regalia perform three times a day in the Indian Village. Here a Haudenosaunee woman performs a social dance.
What should I do at the fair?
The fair will host 39 concerts at Chevy Court and Suburban Park. Major headliners include Flo Rida, Joey Fatone and AJ McLean, Rick Ross, Megan Maroney, Dropkick Murphys and more. Those concerts are all free with admission to the fair.
In addition to music, there are several barns full of animals — sheep, llamas, pigs, horses and more.
For $10, you can snuggle a baby goat for as long as you want. Steinmetz Family Farm of Berks County, Penn. is bringing around 100 baby Nigerian dwarf goats to the Fair.
“If people fall in love with them while they snuggle them, they have the option to adopt some goats,” said owner Justin Steinmetz.
Returning this year are the Latino Village, Pan-African Village, Indian Village and Asian Village with plenty of food and cultural offerings.
Don’t forget to check out the annual butter sculpture in the Dairy Building and sand sculpture in the Expo Center. They’re free to see.

What should I eat at the fair?
Sure, the state fair is an agricultural festival. But for many regular fairgoers, food takes center stage.
We put together a list of all the Fair vendors and highlighted some of the newcomers as well as the places that won’t be back. Soul Brother’s Tacos, Ji-Woo’s Korean Seoul Food, The Saucy Sandwich, 546 Chicken and Waffles and Oyster Party are coming in.
As always, there are some vendors who chose not to renew their contracts, such as the Coyote Moon Winery and Carr’s Cove, a food vendor in the Horticulture Building. But there are also new stands taking their place .
In all, there are 282 total vendors at this year’s Fair, roughly the same number as last year. Of those, 112 are food vendors, also similar to last year.
Toss N Fire this year will take over the legendary spot occupied for more than two decades by the big Gianelli Sausage / Dinosaur Bar-B-Que stand at the back corner of Chevy Court. And they’re offering several specialty pizzas for fairgoers only.
Last year, we asked a panel of experts to rank the most iconic State Fair foods of all time. See what they picked in our New York State Fair Food Hall of Fame.
Looking for more? Syracuse.com will have more than two dozen reporters on site on day one, hitting as many food and drink stands as we can to bring you details on the best stuff we can find. Stay tuned.

7 Must-See Hidden Attractions to See on Your Trip to Acadia National Park
Kenneth teape | 17 hours ago.
![Acadia National Park, Maine, États-Unis Acadia National Park, Maine, États-Unis](https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/c_crop,w_640,h_360,x_0,y_35/c_fill,w_720,ar_16:9,f_auto,q_auto,g_auto/images/voltaxMediaLibrary/mmsport/outdoors_on_si/01j5pc2g85zfjzbzb392.jpg)
Acadia National Park is among the most visited in the United States. Located in Maine, it more than makes up for being one of the smallest National Parks in the country with a sublime coastline and 150 miles worth of hiking trails.
Park Loop Road is one of the main attractions at Acadia, but there is plenty to offer in lesser-known spots. Here are seven attractions that are hidden gems and must-see on your next trip to Acadia National Park.
Cadillac Mountain
Cadillac Mountain is the highest point a person can go on the Atlantic Coast. Get a gorgeous view of the ocean itself and some islands as well. Anyone who loves sunrises needs to go to Cadillac Mountain once as it is the first place on the East Coast to see the sun each morning. Reservations can be made and are required for anyone who wants to drive up and park at the summit.
Carriage Roads
One of the things that make Acadia National Park so unique is the non-automobile roads. 45 miles worth of paths with handmade bridges fit in perfectly with the landscape. Horsedrawn carriage tours can be booked to take you through if you wish to rest your legs and not hike or bike for a day. A guide provides you with information about the area as well.
Aptly named as the largest sandy beach in Acadia National Park. Regular beach activities are prevalent, such as building a sand castle and taking a dip in the water. There are some huge rocks that can also be climbed near the edge of the beach. This is also the starting point of the famed Beehive Loop, but a shorter, less challenging Great Head Trail is also accessible from Sand Beach.
Wonderland Trail
![Brown and gray rocks by the ocean during the day Brown and gray rocks by the ocean during the day](https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/c_crop,w_640,h_360,x_0,y_27/c_fill,w_620,ar_16:9,f_auto,q_auto,g_auto/images/voltaxMediaLibrary/mmsport/outdoors_on_si/01j5pce746bnxa6becze.jpg)
This is a trail that is family-friendly and able to be traveled by virtually anyone. 1.4 miles long, visitors can take in the oceanfront while searching for barnacles, crabs, sponges and snails. Tidepooling also enables people to see unique sea life such as sea stars and hermit crabs. You will be occupied for hours taking in all of the fun.
Hunters Beach
Hunters Beach is a Disney movie scene coming to life. Visiting during low tide will provide people with a look at moss-covered rocks, offering a unique landscape. You can get to Hunters Beach with a quick hike through pine trees that are alongside a babbling brook.

Jordan Pond
3.5 miles of walking trails exist around the shoreline of Jordan Pond. This is where the only full-service restaurant of Acadia National Park operates as well. The Jordan Pond House is known for afternoon tea with popovers (a light roll made from egg batter) and strawberry jam. Getting a reservation is tough, but a picnic can be had overlooking the lake if you don’t get into the restaurant.

Schoodic Peninsula
A 75-minute drive from Bar Harbor, the Schoodic Peninsula isn’t an area many people make it to during their visit. But, those people are missing out. If you want to avoid crowds, this is the place to be. A scenic drive provides views of lighthouses, lobster boats and different areas covered in forests. Pink slabs of granite can be traveled across. Less traveled than other parts of the park, it is managed minimally on purpose to offer something different.

The best things to do and places to visit in Moscow, Russia
Updated On 19th June, 2024
![tsrtc tourism places The best places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/@wheresmollie-Pinterest-52-760x1140.png)
While Moscow isn’t always at the top of everyone’s Europe bucket list , it’s certainly one of the best places to visit in Europe if you’re looking for a more alternative adventure! In this blog post I plan on sharing some of the free things to do in Moscow, as well as the best places to visit in Moscow, so that you can enjoy some of the best things to do in Russia!
Moscow, the capital of Russia, sits in the European part of the country. It’s an incredibly beautiful city, which I personally found to be more beautiful than Saint Petersburg (which is often people’s preference). The capital is certainly a lot busier, and less laid back than Saint Petersburg , but it’s a much more colourful and vibrant city, full of stunning and unique architecture.
Visiting famous landmarks such as The Kremlin and St Basil’s Cathedral, enjoying some of the green space in Gorky Park, watching a ballet in the Bolshoi Theatre… these are just a few reasons that you should visit Moscow! On top of that, because of visa restrictions (we’ll get onto that later), it’s also one of the most unique destinations in Europe.
There is a common misconception that Moscow is a dangerous city, but now that I’ve visited, I don’t believe this to be true. I would say the same rules apply here as to other large cities: avoid walking in dark areas alone at night, keep an eye on your belongings on public transport, and be streetwise. There’s no reason to avoid visiting this energetic city and miss out on these amazing things to do in Moscow!
It would take months if you wanted to truly explore Moscow because it’s a huge city, but I’m going to share some of my favourite things to do in Moscow and places to visit in Moscow so that you can prepare for your upcoming adventure! Even if you’re only there for a few days, you should be able to fit in these highlights from my trip.

Where is Moscow?
If you’re wondering ‘Where is Moscow, Russia?’ then you’ve come to the right place! Moscow in in west Russia, the European part, and it’s the capital city.
How do you get to Moscow?
Getting a visa for moscow:.
To get into Russia, you need to get a visa. The processing time is approximately 20 days, and you’ll need to have your fingerprints taken at a visa centre in London , Edinburgh or Manchester. You can find out more about getting a visa for Russia here.
Getting to Moscow:
Once you’ve got your visa, the easiest way to get to Moscow from the UK is by flying. Direct flights between London and Moscow take just under four hours, and with an airport layover you’re looking at a 6-7 hour trip. You can also fly in from many other major European and international cities.
Top tip: Check out flights to and from Copenhagen on Skyscanner here.

Top tip: Getting around Moscow
If you want to get a taxi, use the local taxi app “Yandex” which is similar to Uber. Definitely avoid taxis waiting in tourist spots, as they can charge you ridiculous amounts of money for a very short ride.
16 best places to visit in Moscow
1. st basil’s cathedral.
The most iconic building in Russia and one of the most iconic buildings in the world. St Basil’s Cathedral is one of the best places to visit in Moscow, if not the best!
St Basil’s is situated on Red Square, where you’ll also find many other popular places to visit in Moscow. In my opinion this still stands out against them all. There’s something about the multi coloured domes against the Moscow skyline that I found quite spectacular.
Although I’d already been in Russia for several days, it wasn’t until I was at this amazing piece of architecture that I really felt I was in Russia.
The cathedral was built by order of Ivan the Terrible, and apparently after the architect completed it, Ivan blinded him so that he could never build anything more beautiful. Whether or not this story is true, it certainly adds a bittersweet feeling as you stand admiring the beauty of St Basil’s Cathedral.
Inside is a museum displaying many historic items once used at the cathedral, which costs 700 rubles to enter. In my opinion it’s worth the entry fee, as simply seeing the ornate interior walls is a spectacle in itself.
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/St-Basils-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-8-760x506.jpg)
2. The Kremlin
This historic fortress that sits on Red Square is probably the largest landmark and one of the most popular places to visit in Moscow. It’s the official residence of the President, although he doesn’t actually live there. It’s been rebuilt many times since it was first constructed in 1147 out of wood, before Ivan III the Great ordered it to be made from stone, which is the Kremlin you’ll recognise today.
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/The-Kremlin-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-7-760x507.jpg)
This place is huge, and there’s quite a lot to see. The first problem I had was finding where the entrance was. Even though I had a pre-booked ticket, I was then told I still had to visit the ticket office to exchange it for another ticket. I also needed my passport, so make sure you have yours if you plan to visit the Kremlin. After a lengthy queue I finally had a ticket I could use to enter the Kremlin, and had to go through security. The security here is thorough, so make sure you don’t take too much in with you. I had my pockets full, and it was a nightmare emptying them and explaining each item, before I was finally allowed in. Once inside you can pay for extra tickets to visit the various museums, however there’s also quite a lot to see simply on the grounds if you don’t want to spend too much.
See more tips for travelling on a budget here.
There’s so much to see here, including The Assumption Cathedral, Ivan the Great Bell Tower Complex, the Grand Kremlin Palace, the Armoury Chamber and Diamond Fund. There is also the Tsar Cannon (a huge artillery cannon), and the Tsar Bell. The Tsar Bell is the largest bell in the world. An incident with a fire and water being poured over the bell caused it to crack and for a slab to break off from it, which can now be seen propped up next to it.
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/The-Kremlin-Bell-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-2-760x1140.jpg)
As you walk around the grounds you’ll hear the sound of whistles. The guards patrolling the area will blow a whistle at anyone walking where they shouldn’t. Even if it’s just on the grass, or towards more restricted areas. This can sometimes be funny to watch, as often the tourists will be in a world of their own whilst a guard is blowing a whistle at them. Sometimes a guard will be stood face to face with a tourist angrily blowing their whistle before the tourist realises they need to get back onto the main path.
This is perhaps one of the more unusual places to visit in Moscow! Gum is a huge department store situated on Red Square. It’s an interesting department store to walk around, with several levels, although the shops inside are certainly quite pricey. It’s a beautiful building when it’s lit up at night, and it seems to fit in nicely amongst the other famous sights on Red Square. Even if you don’t plan to buy anything here, one of the best things to do in Moscow is to take a quick look inside, although bear in mind there are usually security checks before entering.
4. State Historical Museum
The large crimson building on Red Square is now the State Historical Museum. It was originally the first pharmacy in Russia, and later a University before finally becoming the museum it is today.
Unfortunately I didn’t go inside as my time was limited and there was so much else I wanted to see, but if you have the time I think it would be one of the best things to do in Moscow. There are items dating back to the 6th century, and maybe even further. There’s also a library inside storing many ancient manuscripts and the largest coin collection in Russia.
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/State-Historical-Museum-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-1-760x507.jpg)
5. Bolshoi Theatre
Bolshoi means big in Russian, so it roughly translates to large theatre. The Bolshoi Theatre is one of the foremost ballet companies in the world. The exterior of the building is an impressive sight, one of the most beautiful places to visit in Moscow, and it’s certainly worth admiring from the outside. There are guided tours of the interior, but if you really want to experience the theatre, one of the best things to do in Moscow is to watch a ballet here.
I was torn between booking a seat, but the ballets were very expensive. I’d have liked to have seen “Swan Lake”, (as at least I may have recognised some of the music). Unfortunately there were no performances on the days I was in Moscow, so I decided to pass. But if I return to Russia, then watching a ballet will be on my list of things to do.
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Bolshoi-Theatre-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-3-760x507.jpg)
6. Sparrow Hills
If you want a good view of the city, then Sparrow Hills is one of the best places to visit in Moscow. It’s a bit of a trek outside of the centre, but if you have the time then it offers an escape from the hustle and bustle of the busy city. There’s a viewing platform here which gives you fantastic panoramic views of Moscow.
Nearby you’ll see the magnificent Moscow State University building, which is one of the seven sisters of Moscow.
7. Seven Sisters
Whilst in Moscow, you’ll no doubt notice these magnificent soviet skyscrapers dotted around the city. At the time of construction they were the tallest buildings in Europe, Moscow State University being so until 1997. There are, as the name suggests, seven in total, which are: Hotel Ukraina, Kotelnicheskaya Embankment Apartments, the Kudrinskaya Square Building, the Hilton Moscow Leningradskaya Hotel, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Moscow State University, and the Red Gates Administrative Building.
If you visit Sparrow Hills, then you’ll come across Moscow State University, but I’m certain as you explore the city, you’ll see more of these giants against the Moscow skyline. One of the best things to do in Moscow is to see if you can locate all seven as you wander round the city!
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Seven-Sisters-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-12-760x507.jpg)
8. Nikolskaya Street
The start of this street is found by Red Square. It’s one of the most prominent pedestrianised streets in Moscow, filled with shops, restaurants and bars, so one of the best places to visit in Moscow if you’re looking for a bite to eat or some souvenirs!
What makes this street extra special are the thousands of bright lights in the sky above. After dark it looks simply magical with the many colourful lights overhead as you walk beneath them. One of the best things to do in Moscow is to visit Nikolskaya Street after dark and see them for yourself. It almost feels like Christmas in London!
There is another street nearby which also features similar lights, “Kuznetskiy Most”, which is also quite beautiful, but I thought “Nikolskaya Street” was ever slightly more impressive.
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Nikolskaya-Street-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-9-760x507.jpg)
9. Izmailovo Kremlin and Izmaylovskiy Bazar
Did you know that The Kremlin in Red Square is not the only Kremlin in Moscow? Kremlin actually means a type of fortress, so there are many in Russia.
The Izmailovo Kremlin is a fairly new addition to the city, having been built in 2007 as a cultural centre. With its multitude of colours and historic style, it has a real fairytale feel to it. There are several small museums here for you to explore, devoted to subjects such as Russian folk art, vodka and bread (yes, bread). Visiting these is definitely one of the more unique things to do in Moscow!
It’s a little way out of the centre, but it’s an interesting place to visit in Moscow to see something a little bit different, and it won’t be as overcrowded with tourists.
Next to the Izmailovo Kremlin is the best market in Moscow for souvenirs. You’ll find good and poor quality items, but you’ll certainly pick up a bargain if you take your time and haggle for a good price. Many of the items here you’ll get for half the price you would in souvenir shops in the city centre. It’s here that I picked up several Matryoshka dolls for a very good price. I think I’d have paid more than double, or possibly even triple if I’d have bought them elsewhere.
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Izmailovo-Kremlin-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-10-760x507.jpg)
10. Izmailovsky Park
Not too far from Izmailovo Kremlin you’ll find this huge park, one of the prettiest places to visit in Moscow. It’s easy to get lost here, so try to make sure you keep track of where you entered if you plan to go back the same way. There’s a lot to see in this park, a round pond, ferris wheel, playgrounds and sports grounds, shooting galleries, cinemas and a skate park.
There are often festivals, concerts and exhibitions at the park, on top of firework displays and dance parties.
The main reason I chose to visit the park was to find the painted trees. A local artist “Yevgenia Khlynina” has been painting on trees in this park, and one of the best things to do in Moscow is to explore the park looking for them. One of the most famous pieces of hers is the “Hedgehog in the Fog” from a famous soviet cartoon.
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Izmailovsky-Park-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-11-760x1140.jpg)
11. Gorky Park
The most famous park in Moscow is named after the writer “Maxim Gorky”. Although it’s likely you’ve heard it mentioned in the song “Wind of Change” by “The Scorpions”.
There’s lots to do and see in the park with sports facilities and exhibitions. During the summer months this is one of the best places to visit if you’re looking for things to do in Moscow; there are often open air concerts and an open air cinema. There are many statues and sculptures in the park, including a small sculpture park area which features many interesting pieces.
One piece of advice: don’t visit Gorky Park or any other parks on 2nd August if you’re in Russia. 2nd August is Paratrooper day, which usually encourages a lot of drinking in the park, which is not always very welcoming.
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Gorky-Park-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-6-760x507.jpg)
12. Arbat Street
One of the oldest and busiest streets in Moscow, and the most famous pedestrian street in the city. Arbat is one of the most popular places to visit in Moscow. There are several shops including many dedicated to souvenirs, but although these will have a good range of goods, they will be quite expensive . You may see street performers and buskers, and there are often poets reciting famous works, if not their own works.
It’s within walking distance from the Kremlin, which should only take around 10 minutes.
There are actually two streets with this name, Old Arbat Street and New Arbat Street. Old Arbat Street is where you’ll find the pedestrianised area. New Arbat Street is a separate street which runs alongside a main road, filled with many bars and restaurants.
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Arbat-Street-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-4-760x507.jpg)
13. Metro station art
The best way to get around Moscow is by using the metro, and the metro is a tourist attraction in itself.
Although I obviously didn’t visit every metro station, I believe that every single station is unique in its own beautiful way. Many of the stations I passed through were impressive, quirky or simply jaw dropping. You’ll more than likely pass through many of them on the way to other sights, but I’d recommend the following: Komsomolskaya, Novoslobodskaya, Mayakovskaya, Teatralnaya, Arbatskaya, Prospekt Mira and Ploschad Revolutsii (be sure to pet the dog statue for good luck).
There are of course many others for you to explore, but these are the ones I considered to be some of the most impressive places to visit in Moscow (even if they’re only metro stations!).
![tsrtc tourism places The best things to do in Moscow: my favourite places to visit in Moscow](https://weareglobaltravellers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Metro-Stations-A-Guide-to-Moscow-Russia-Wheres-Mollie-5-760x1140.jpg)
VDNKh is an exhibition centre with many monuments and museums. Now that it’s combined with the Botanical Garden and Ostankino Park, one of the best things to do in Moscow is to spend the day at this recreational centre enjoying a mix of nature and culture. The most popular museum in the complex which you shouldn’t miss on your trip to Moscow is the Museum of Cosmonautics.
15. Lenin’s Mausoleum
Despite requesting to be buried with his mum in St Petersburg, it is at the foot of the Kremlin on Red Sqaure that you will find Lenin’s Mausoleum, where Vladimir Ilych Lenin has been frozen in time since 1924. It’s only open for a few hours a few times per week. Photography is not allowed, and you should line up on the western corner of the square (near Alexander Garden) to wait you turn to see the embalmed body.
16. Novodevichy Convent
Novodevichy Convent, on the UNESCO World Heritage List, is one of the most beautiful places to visit in Moscow. Located south west of the centre you’ll find this stunning monastery. Inside you’ll find a cathedral and several churches, surrounded by high walls and 12 towers.

The capital of Russia is an incredible place to explore. Visitors to Moscow come away spellbound at all the amazing sights, impressed at the sheer size and grandeur of the city. Lying at the heart of Moscow, the Red Square and the Kremlin are just two of the must-see tourist attractions; they are the historical, political and spiritual heart of the city – and indeed Russia itself.
A fascinating city to wander around, stunning cathedrals, churches, and palaces lie side-by-side with bleak grey monuments and remains from the Soviet state. In addition to its plethora of historical and cultural tourist attractions, Moscow is home to world-class museums, theaters and art galleries.
Renowned for its performing arts, fantastic ballets and amazing circus acts, catching a show while in Moscow is a must. The wealth of brilliant restaurants, trendy bars, and lively nightlife means there is something for everyone to enjoy.

The exhibits on display look at the life of the empress as well as the history of Tsaritsyno itself. The huge palace grounds are also home to some other delightful buildings with the elegant opera house and wonderful brickwork of the Small Palace being particularly impressive to gaze upon.

The huge park complex has numerous pavilions representing former Soviet republics on show, such as those of Armenia and Turkmenistan and the distinctive architecture of each of the buildings is always interesting to gaze upon. In addition to this there is the fascinating Memorial Museum of Cosmonautics which is dedicated to space exploration and the fun Moskvarium aquarium even offers you the chance to swim with dolphins.
With lots of eateries scattered about and numerous entertainment options such as horse-riding and zip-lining, there is something for everyone to enjoy; the Friendship of Nations fountain truly is wonderful.
15. Kremlin Armoury
![tsrtc tourism places Kremlin Armoury](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/kremlin_armoury-1.jpg)
One of the oldest museums in the city, the Kremlin Armoury has a wealth of treasures; highlights include the ornate Grand Siberian Railway egg, the historic Cap of Monomakh and the stunning Imperial Crown of Russia which often has a crowd of tourists around it, jostling to take a photo.
Once the royal armory, there are loads of fascinating objects on display. Perusing the many sabers, jewelry, armor and more is as interesting as it is educational and entertaining and the swords are so finely crafted that you’ll almost wish you could pick up one and wield if yourself.
Established in 1851, the museum is situated in the Moscow Kremlin.
14. GUM Department Store
![tsrtc tourism places GUM Department Store](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/gum.jpg)

13. Moscow Metro
![tsrtc tourism places Moscow Metro](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/moscow_metro.jpg)
It’s not often that public transport looks like a work of art. So many stops on the Moscow Metro will astound visitors with their beauty and elegance.
Decked in marble and with frescoes covering the walls, the stations are amazing to gaze upon and are part of one of the longest metro systems in the world, with the first stations opened in 1935.
Using the metro is the quickest and easiest way to get around Moscow and braving the crowds of commuters is well worth it for the beauty all around you.
12. Arbat Street
![tsrtc tourism places Arbat Street](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/arbat_street.jpg)
An elegant yet lively street, Arbat is full of impressive architecture and was once a popular place to live for aristocrats, artists, and academics.
A historic place, it is down Arbat Street that Napoleon’s troops are said to have headed on their way to capture the Kremlin.
Nowadays, there are many cafes, restaurants, and shops, as well as various monuments and statues to former residents such as Alexander Pushkin who was reputed to be a lover of the Russian Empress due to his massive influence in court.
11. Novodevichy Convent
![tsrtc tourism places Novodevichy Convent](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/novodevichy_convent.jpg)
Drenched in history, the Novodevichy Convent is located in a striking building that was once a fortress. This captivating place is well worth visiting when in Moscow.
Founded in 1524, the convent houses four cathedrals; Smolensk Cathedral is the undoubted highlight due to its delightful 16th-century frescoes.
Wandering around the grounds is like stepping back in time. The Novodevichy Cemetery is where many famous leaders of the Soviet Union are buried, such as Yeltsin and Khrushchev.
10. Pushkin Museum
![tsrtc tourism places Pushkin Museum](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/pushkin_museum.jpg)
Despite its name, the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts actually has no connection at all to the famous poet other than that it was named in his honor after his death. A delight to visit, its extensive collection focuses on European art with masterpieces by Botticelli, Rembrandt, and van Gogh all featuring.
Sculptures, graphic art, paintings and more can be found in its beautiful galleries; various sections look at themes and epochs such as the Renaissance, the Dutch Golden Age, and Byzantine art.
Among the many highlights are the clownish characters which can be found in Cezanne’s Fastnacht (Mardi Gras) and the twirling ballerinas who look so elegant in Degas’ Blue Dancers. Picasso’s Young acrobat on a Ball is also well worth checking out for its interesting use of shapes and colors.
9. Christ The Savior Cathedral
![tsrtc tourism places Christ The Savior Cathedral](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/christ_the_savior_cathedral.jpg)
This gorgeous Russian Orthodox cathedral is located on the banks of the Moskva River, just a stone’s throw away from the Kremlin.
The church as it stands today was consecrated in 2000, as the original church that stood here was destroyed on the command of Josef Stalin in 1931 due to the anti-religious campaign.
With its delightful golden dome, spires and dazzling white facades, the Christ the Savior Cathedral is stunning. The interior is just as captivating to wander around, with its beautifully tiled floors and impressive altar.
8. Lenin Mausoleum
![tsrtc tourism places Lenin Mausoleum](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/lenin_mausoleum.jpg)
Opened to the public in 1924, Lenin’s Mausoleum is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Moscow. The red granite structure is located at the heart of the city in Red Square.
Lenin’s embalmed body lies in a glass sarcophagus; it is a somewhat eerie experience walking past the former leader of the Soviet Union but is well worth doing as you understandably can’t do it anywhere else in the world.
After visiting the mausoleum, head to the Kremlin wall right next to it for more graves of important communist figures such as Stalin and Brezhnev.
7. Tretyakov Gallery
![tsrtc tourism places Tretyakov Gallery](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/tretyakov_gallery.jpg)

Highlights include the iconic Theotokos of Vladimir which you will almost certainly recognise despite probably not knowing the name and Rublev’s Trinity which is considered to be one of highest achievements in Russian art.
An absolute must for art lovers, the State Tretyakov Gallery will delight visitors with all that is has to offer.
6. Kolomenskoye
![tsrtc tourism places Kolomenskoye](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/kolomenskoye.jpg)
Once a royal estate, Kolomenskoye is now a museum-reserve and lies a few kilometers outside of the city center. A captivating place to visit, there is a plethora of history on show and the site overlooks the Moskva River.

5. Gorky Park
![tsrtc tourism places Gorky Park](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/gorky_park.jpg)
Lying alongside the Moskva River, the huge Gorky Park is a lovely place to visit. Its extensive gardens are home to numerous cultural institutions and visitors should definitely check out the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art and while the eclectic exhibits may not always feature such incredible sights as a balloon-covered rider on a zebra; they certainly always succeed in pushing back the boundaries of art.

Whether it’s cycling, table tennis or yoga that you are after or beach volleyball and rowing, Gorky Park certainly has it. In winter, there is a huge ice rink for visitors to enjoy.
4. Bolshoi Theatre
![tsrtc tourism places Bolshoi Theatre](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/bolshoi_theatre.jpg)
The Bolshoi Theatre is the main theater in the country. The amazing opera and ballet performances it has put on over the centuries go a long way in explaining Russia’s rich history of performing arts.
While the Bolshoi Ballet Company was established in 1776, the theater itself was opened in 1825. The glittering, six-tier auditorium is lavishly and decadently decorated; it is a fitting setting for the world-class performances that take place on its stage.
Spending a night watching a performance of such classics as The Nutcracker or Swan Lake at the Bolshoi Theatre is sure to be a memorable experience and the beauty all around you only adds to the sense of occasion.
3. Moscow Kremlin
![tsrtc tourism places Moscow Kremlin](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/moscow_kremlin.jpg)
This famously fortified complex is remarkably home to five palaces and four cathedrals and is the historic, political and spiritual center of the city. The Kremlin serves as the residence for the country’s president. It has been used as a fort, and this fact is made clear by its sheer size. The Kremlin’s outer walls were built in the late 1400s.
Under Ivan III, better known as Ivan the Great, the Kremlin became the center of a unified Russian state, and was extensively remodeled. Three of the Kremlin’s cathedrals date to his reign that lasted from 1462-1505. The Deposition Church and the Palace of Facets were also constructed during this time. The Ivan the Great Bell Tower was built in 1508. It is the tallest tower at the Kremlin with a height of 266 feet (81 meters).
Joseph Stalin removed many of the relics from the tsarist regimes. However, the Tsar Bell, the world’s largest bell, and the Tsar Cannon, the largest bombard by caliber in the world, are among the remaining items from that era. The Kremlin Armory is one of Moscow’s oldest museums as it was established more than 200 years ago. Its diamond collection is impressive.
The Kremlin’s gardens – Taynitsky, Grand Kremlin Public and Alexander – are beautiful. The Kremlin has also served as the religious center of the country, and there is a tremendous number of preserved churches and cathedrals here. The collections contained within the museums include more than 60,000 historical, cultural and artistic monuments. Those who enjoy the performing arts will want to consider attending a ballet or concert at the State Kremlin Palace. Completed in 1961, it is the only modern building in the Kremlin.
2. Red Square
![tsrtc tourism places Red Square](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/red_square.jpg)
Lying at the heart of Moscow, Red Square is the most important and impressive square in the city. It is one of the most popular tourist attractions due to its wealth of historical sights and cultural landmarks.
Drenched in history, the huge square is home to incredible sights such as the Kremlin, St. Basil’s Cathedral and Lenin’s Mausoleum, among others. Consequently, it is not to be missed when in Moscow as it really is home to the city’s most stunning monuments.
It is here that many important moments in Russian history took place; the former marketplace has hosted everything from Tsar’s coronations and public ceremonies to rock concerts and Soviet military parades. Wandering around the massive square is a humbling experience and undoubtedly one of the highlights the city has to offer.
1. Saint Basil’s Cathedral
![tsrtc tourism places Saint Basil's Cathedral](https://www.touropia.com/gfx/b/2018/12/saint_basils_cathedral.jpg)
Located in the impressive Red Square, St. Basil’s Cathedral is gorgeous; its delightful spires appear as if out of a fairytale. The most recognizable building in the country, the cathedral is very much a symbol of Russia. No visit to Moscow is complete without having taken in its unique and distinctive features.
Ivan the Terrible ordered the cathedral’s construction in the mid-16th century, and legend holds that Ivan put out the architect’s eyes so that he would be unable to build another cathedral more glorious than St. Basil’s. Designed to resemble the shape of a bonfire in full flame, the architecture is not only unique to the period in which it was built but to any subsequent period. For various reasons, both Napoleon and Stalin wanted to destroy the cathedral but fortunately did not succeed.
Known for its various colors, shapes and geometric patterns, St. Basil’s Cathedral houses nine different chapels that are all connected by a winding labyrinth of corridors and stairways. On the lower floor, St. Basil’s Chapel contains a silver casket bearing the body of St. Basil the Blessed.
Throughout the cathedral are many beautiful murals, frescoes, wooden icons and other art works and artifacts. Outside the cathedral is a lovely garden with the bronze Monument to Minin and Pozharsky, who rallied an all-volunteer Russian army against Polish invaders during a period of the late 16th century known as the Times of Troubles.

Disney unveils new attractions for Magic Kingdom and Hollywood studios
by Sophie Pendrill
![tsrtc tourism places FILE - During the second night of D23, the Ultimate Disney Fan Event, Disney announced some new attractions to come for its Magic Kingdom and Animal Kindom theme parks. (Joe Burbank/Orlando Sentinel via AP, File)](https://cbs12.com/resources/media2/16x9/full/1015/center/80/4fbc8c22-085f-4fbf-94ce-7b35bff234f8-large16x9_AP23271019234449.jpg)
ORLANDO, Fla. (CBS12) — During the second night of D23, the Ultimate Disney Fan Event, Disney announced some new attractions for Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios theme parks.
'Today we unveiled an extensive slate of new experiences that only Disney can deliver,' said Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro.
According to Disney, Monsters Inc. is making a grand entrance to Disney's Hollywood Studios, with construction beginning in 2025. The land will feature Disney's first-ever suspended coaster in which guests will experience what it's like to travel through the door vault, much like Mike and Sully.
Pixar's Cars franchise is coming to a new area of Frontierland in Magic Kingdom. Guests can look forward to two all-new attractions that will take them into the wilderness beyond Radiator Springs. This will include an off-road rally race and a family-friendly attraction suitable for young guests. Disney stated that construction for this area will begin early next year.
Additionally, D'Amaro mentioned Tropical Americas at Disney’s Animal Kingdom will feature two new signature attractions. Guests can embark on an adventure following Indiana Jones into an ancient Maya temple and journey through the Casita Madrigal from "Encanto," following Antonio's story.

Top Labor Day Travel Trends of 2024
Aaa booking data shows alaska cruises, european cities, and tourist attractions are most popular.
![tsrtc tourism places](https://newsroom.aaa.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Aixa-Diaz-AAA-150x150.jpg)
WASHINGTON, DC (Aug. 19, 2024) – This year’s record-breaking , blockbuster summer travel season comes to a close with many Americans exploring Alaska by cruise. According to AAA booking data, Seattle is the number one Labor Day weekend* destination, up nearly 30% from last year when it also topped the list. Anchorage and Juneau are also on the top ten list of Labor Day destinations.
“This is the time of year to go on an Alaska cruise,” said Paula Twidale, Senior Vice President of AAA Travel. “There are fewer crowds compared to earlier in the summer, and if you’re lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of fall colors! It’s no surprise Alaska cruises are sold out this Labor Day weekend.”
AAA travel experts say if you’re interested in going on an Alaska cruise next summer, the time to book is now to lock in the best rate and ensure you get the type of cabin you want.
According to AAA booking data, o verall domestic travel over Labor Day weekend is up 9% compared to last year , while the cost to travel domestically is down 2%. Other top Labor Day destinations include Orlando, New York, Boston, Las Vegas, Denver, Chicago, and San Francisco. For many families, Labor Day is the last hurrah before school begins. To make the most of those trips, AAA recommends identifying must-see sights and creating a flexible itinerary ahead of time. “ Trip Canvas is a great free resource for travelers in the planning phase,” Twidale said. “You can find free things to do in Denver or the best museums in New York City .”
Travelers taking road trips should expect to pay less for gas compared to last year. The national average over Labor Day weekend in 2023 was $3.81. In recent weeks, gas prices have remained steady, hovering around $3.50. Despite the popularity of summer road trips, overall gas demand is down as daily driving habits have changed post-pandemic, preventing pump prices from spiking. Hurricanes hitting the Gulf and affecting regional refineries could cause gas prices to go up as the peak of the season approaches in September. For drivers taking road trips in their electric vehicles, AAA now offers information on the cost of Level 2 commercial EV charging and updates that data weekly .
International travel over Labor Day weekend is down 4% compared to last year, per AAA booking numbers , while the cost to travel internationally is up 11%. Most of those travelers are heading to Europe. Eight out of the top ten international destinations booked through AAA are European cities. Travelers renting a car abroad should consider getting an International Driving Permit (IDP), which translates their driver’s license information into 10 languages. Some countries – including Italy and Spain – require it. AAA is the only entity in the U.S. authorized by the State Department to issue an IDP.

Best and Worst Times to Travel by Car over Labor Day Weekend
INRIX , a provider of transportation data and insights, says car travelers should avoid the afternoon and early evening hours of Thursday and Friday, as those times will be the most congested. Drivers should hit the road in the morning unless they’re leaving on Saturday when the best time to travel by car is in the afternoon. Travelers returning on Sunday and on Labor Day should leave as early as possible to avoid heavy traffic in the afternoon.
“Drivers should expect the most severe traffic jams before the holiday weekend as commuters mix with travelers,” said Bob Pishue, transportation analyst at INRIX. “Monitoring traffic apps, local news stations, and 511 traveler information services may help drivers navigate around congestion and reduce driver frustration this Labor Day.”

‘Avatar,’ ‘Coco’ attractions are coming to Disneyland — and other big news from D23
![tsrtc tourism places A twilight scene of a boat ride through a bioluminescent forest](https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/a0f571f/2147483647/strip/true/crop/14000x8309+0+0/resize/1200x712!/quality/75/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalifornia-times-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F5a%2Fca%2Fc37002ef46718e0f7ed14f4fe6c0%2Fdlr-avatar-attraction-bio-lume-forest.jpg)

Walt Disney created it. James Cameron will help add to it.
The Disneyland Resort in its seventh decade is getting a new area dedicated to a world of fantasy, this one having originated from the mind of filmmaker Cameron. A long-teased “Avatar”-inspired section is coming to Disney California Adventure. The Walt Disney Co. confirmed the plans Saturday night at its D23 fan convention in Anaheim.
Concept art shown by Disney revealed a water-focused attraction that Walt Disney Imagineering, the division of the company responsible for theme park design, promised would be “dynamic, intense and an emotional experience on a grand scale.”
Imagineering executive Ali Rubinstein said the new area in California Adventure would differ greatly from an “Avatar”-themed land at Walt Disney World in Florida. This one, she said, would draw heavily from the second “Avatar” film, “The Way of Water.” Consider it “an excursion in search of majestic natural wonders that can only be found in Pandora,” said Rubinstein.

In defense of Disney adults
The term ‘Disney adult’ is often associated with an allegiance to a corporation or a refusal to grow up. But maybe the young at heart know something the rest of us don’t?
July 18, 2024
The announcement arrives at a crucial time for the Walt Disney Co. The firm reported lower than anticipated operating income for its parks division in its third-quarter results, with executives attributing the slowdown, in part, to a dip in demand driven by financial stress on consumers. Any drop in attendance at Disney theme parks — global tourist destinations that draw millions per year — raises questions not only regarding public sentiment on the economy, but the affordability and excitement surrounding the parks.
In turn, this D23 convention was seen as crucial in inspiring fan passion for what’s to come. And fans left Saturday’s park-focused presentation with plenty to think about.
![tsrtc tourism places Guests on a boat in a Día de Muertos-inspired world.](https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/33cbfa1/2147483647/strip/true/crop/10934x5826+0+0/resize/1200x639!/quality/75/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalifornia-times-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F76%2F4c%2F4c67e489436db1a18f9e7b7dcaf7%2Fdlr-coco-attraction.jpg)
“It’s kind of overwhelming,” said Matt Reynolds, 31, from Orlando, Fla. “There’s so much information and I’ll have to read over it all and digest it all. I think it’s all very ambitious.”
Throughout the weekend it was stressed that announcements at a parks-focused event Saturday evening at the Honda Center would focus on projects in some stage of active development, including a “Coco”-themed boat ride also destined for California Adventure.
“Disney’s plans are drawn,” said Josh D’Amaro, chairman of Disney Experiences, from the arena’s stage. “This means the dirt is moving.”
Disney executives indicated that they were well aware that fans were anticipating relatively major reveals at this D23, especially after the last convention, in 2022, went heavy on potential projects but was light on concrete proposals. A quick sampling of the 12,000 who attended the event found that Disney’s most ardent fans — and often harshest critics — generally had an upbeat response to the shift in direction.
“We got some better announcements than last time. It was more than ‘what if?’ I definitely was very happy with some of these announcements,” said Justin Ramos, 22, from Orlando. “I’d like to see them follow through with a lot of this.”

D’Amaro said ground would break in 2026 for the “Coco” attraction. He added that the ride would be influenced largely by classics such as the Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean, and would feature new animatronic technology.
“We’re bringing our skeletal cast of characters to life in a big way,” he said. “These figures will appear in ways you’ll have to see to believe.”
Locations for the “Avatar” and “Coco” attractions — and what, if anything, they may replace — were not detailed at the Honda Center.
The biggest roar of the night was reserved for a villains-themed land coming to the Magic Kingdom in Florida’s Walt Disney World. The announcements, sprinkled among pop performances of Disney songs from the likes of Rita Ora, Meghan Trainor, Chromeo and more, came quick, and ranged from four new cruise ships to a land with a “Monsters, Inc.” theme for Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World. The latter will come complete with a suspended coaster. Elsewhere, look for attractions based on “Encanto” and the “Indiana Jones” franchise to come to Florida resort’s Animal Kingdom.

Much attention, however, was placed on California Adventure.
Imagineering creative Scott Trowbridge said the park’s Avengers Campus would essentially double in size with two attractions in development. One is a previously announced ride featuring the Avengers in battle across the multiverse with King Thanos. The attraction, first announced in 2019, was given a name, Avengers Infinity Defense, and will feature locations such as the Black Panther world of Wakanda, Asgard and New York City. It looks to lean heavily on visual effects interspersed with physical sets.
Another, Stark Flight Lab, is pitched as a testing of new Avengers technology. It’s an amusement-park-like thrill ride, in which guests will sit in two-person pods and then attach to a mechanical arm that will lift them into the air and attempt to simulate sensations of flight. Actor Robert Downey Jr. will reprise his role as Tony Stark for the ride. Ground is set to break on both attractions next year, said Trowbridge.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure’s joyous debut proves it was time for stale Splash Mountain to go
Splash Mountain closed at Disneyland and Walt Disney World in 2023 to make room for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. The ride is a joyful celebration.
June 11, 2024
The Avengers ride, in particular, has been a long time coming, having first been unveiled five years ago. Fans are eager for its arrival. “We unfortunately are Disney World people, but we want to be Disney California Adventure people because of all of the Avengers Campus and the ‘Coco,’” said Julie McGrady, 31, of Nashville.
Disney did place a high significance on this D23 when it came to the Disneyland Resort. The birthplace of the modern American theme park turns 70 in July 2025, and recently after a multiyear process the company won approval from Anaheim to significantly expand its parks, hotels and shopping districts.
![tsrtc tourism places Guests on a suspended coaster soar alongside "Monsters, Inc." characters.](https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/7b4f824/2147483647/strip/true/crop/9200x4000+0+0/resize/1200x522!/quality/75/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalifornia-times-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F85%2F05%2F3bc6c2f848678cf0d53fce8cd78b%2Fwdw-monsters-door-coaster.jpg)
The project, known as DisneylandForward, came with a pledge, as the Walt Disney Co. has promised to spend a minimum of $1.9 billion on Disneyland attractions, lodging, entertainment, shopping and dining in the next 10 years. Additionally, Disney has stated it will be doubling down on its theme parks, as it has guaranteed to spend $60 billion throughout the next decade in its experiences division, with at least half of that total dedicated to parks and resorts, according to a recent SEC filing .
At a media event preceding D23, Disneyland Resort President Ken Potrock said DisneylandForward gave the resort the “possibility” of expanding its footprint by approximately 50%, largely by rezoning parking districts.
“ Turbocharge ” has been the buzzword used by top Disney brass in relation to its proposed park expenditures. If there’s a cohesive thread to Disney’s intended additions and changes over the coming years, it is this: intellectual property.
Also on the docket: Two new “Cars” rides for Florida’s Magic Kingdom, one pitched as an off-road rally and the other as a tamer, family-friendly attraction; a “Lion King”-focused area for Disney Adventure World at Disneyland Paris with a centerpiece flume ride; and a Spider-Man roller coaster for Shanghai Disneyland.
![tsrtc tourism places Mountains, an ominous castle and green-tinted water.](https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/bcb9f12/2147483647/strip/true/crop/8500x3573+0+0/resize/1200x504!/quality/75/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalifornia-times-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F4d%2F09%2Ff2cf129a49e1a2e0f7ee43fb5556%2Fwdw-villians-land.jpg)
A villains-themed land seemed to generate so much curiosity because it deviates slightly from this path. Though the land will no doubt feature many recognizable characters, it also offers Imagineers an opportunity to expand on larger themes rather than simply build on known stories. “‘Happily ever after,’” D’Amaro said, “may just feel like a distant dream.”
“I feel like we were just waiting for that. We get touches of villains during events at the parks, but they don’t have nearly as much representation as needed,” said Ashton McGrady, 32, also of Nashville. “I think it’s cool to show the fairy tale princess side and then get to see the villain side.”
Coming to the Disneyland Resort much sooner will be a new show for the Main Street Opera House to tell the story of Walt Disney. The show, dubbed “Walt Disney – A Magical Life,” is dedicated to the park’s patriarch and will debut next year for Disneyland’s 70th anniversary.

Disney’s streaming business turns a profit. But parks show signs of trouble
Disney notched a milestone in its streaming business: It reported profitability across its Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ services for the first time.
Aug. 7, 2024
“This attraction will imagine what it would have been like to be in Walt’s presence,” D’Amaro said.
The robotic show will be set in the Disney founder’s studio office, and D’Amaro said great care is being taken to bring him to life, hinting that it will also feature what’s long been said to be his favorite song: “Feed the Birds” by the Sherman Brothers.
“It will feature for the first time an audio-animatronic figure of Walt,” he said. “We’re advancing the technology he pioneered 60 years ago with Abraham Lincoln.”
![tsrtc tourism places Concept art of Walt Disney leaning in an office.](https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/1a07241/2147483647/strip/true/crop/8000x4307+0+0/resize/1200x646!/quality/75/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalifornia-times-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F6b%2F53%2F14e389014331a85dda590624b7d5%2Fdlr-walt-disney-animatronic.jpg)
Nostalgia fans and Disneyland purists need not worry. The Opera House’s current show, “Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln,” will play in rotation with the Disney-focused show after the latter has its initial run.
The following year in 2026 will see Disneyland’s Millennium Falcon: Smugglers’ Run in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge receive an updated interactive storyline. Timed to the film “The Mandalorian and Grogu,” the ride will be tweaked to feature a mission starring the bounty hunter and his little pal, colloquially known as “Baby Yoda.”
Both reflect an evolving approach to Disney’s theme parks.
Disneyland, Walt’s original park, was pitched as a place dedicated to “the world of yesterday, tomorrow and fantasy.” Today, the parks are viewed more as platforms, spaces designed to shift and pivot around the popular franchises of the moment.
The fact that Abraham Lincoln will now share space with Walt Disney doesn’t erase the original intent, but is indicative of a more inward-looking Disney, one dedicated as much or more to its own myths as those of America, fairy tales and pop culture.
