Oriental Land Co. Sets ¥70.5 Billion Budget for New Space Mountain Opening 2027

The complete replacement signals Tokyo’s independent operator backing a rare single‑ride investment of roughly $461 million.

Overview

  • Official filings designate the project as “Space Mountain (2027)” as part of Tokyo Disneyland’s wider Tomorrowland overhaul.
  • The original ride closed on July 31, 2024, and demolition of the former structure has occurred with construction activity now behind barriers.
  • The new coaster is slated to debut in 2027 alongside a redesigned Tomorrowland plaza built within the former attraction’s footprint.
  • The approximately ¥70.5 billion (about $461 million) spend is reported as the largest Space Mountain investment across Disney parks.
  • Some coverage cites a potential “Space Mountain Earthrise” name, which remains unconfirmed by the operator.
