Overview
- Walt Disney World recorded a Notice of Commencement on Monday, September 21, 2026, linked to the Adventureland popcorn-cart corridor between The Magic Carpets of Aladdin and Jungle Cruise.
- The permit carries an August 31, 2028 expiration date, which is far longer than the typical 12-month local permit and signals a multi-year, phased timetable for work.
- The filing lists WDI Facilities Asset Management as the owner and names MLC Theming, Inc. as general contractor, a firm known for scenic painting, facades, and artificial rockwork.
- Reporters place the Adventureland notice inside a larger western-quadrant overhaul that includes major Frontierland projects and note prior pathway and facility permits as groundwork for wider changes.
- Disney has not announced project details, so current coverage treats the scope and guest impacts as unconfirmed and says further permits or an official statement will clarify plans and timing.
