Step into Hollywood

The park unfolds from Hollywood Boulevard, where the shops are neon-lit and big band jazz music floats through the air. Walk a little further, and you’ll spy The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, and the bright lights of the Chinese Theatre. And this is just the beginning – as you peel back the layers of Disney’s Hollywood Studios, you’ll find yourself on another planet entirely in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, and shrunk down to the size of a doll in Toy Story Land.

Attractions

Disney’s Hollywood Studios has a real pick-n-mix of attractions. It’s home to some of Walt Disney World Resort’s most thrilling and immersive rides, from high-speed coasters to simulators that send you hurtling through space. Plus, it has a bunch of family staples – Toy Story Mania! and Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway are hits with little ones.

Shows & entertainment

If shows are your thing, this park gets a standing ovation. The nighttime spectacular – Fantasmic! – is a must-see, bringing old classics and new pictures together for a sizzling celebration of Disney cinema. Plus, you can see princesses tell their stories in The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure and Beauty and The Beast – Live on Stage.

Food & drink

The bars and restaurants here go big on theming. Take Woody’s Lunch Box, for example – there are canopies made from giant building blocks and chairs shaped like Babybels. Over in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge®, you’ve got Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo, and Oga’s Cantina – this watering hole has a cosmic cocktail list and music spun by DJ R-3X.

Immersive areas

Disney’s Hollywood Studios is broken down into different themed lands, covering everything from old-school Hollywood to galaxies far, far away.

Hollywood Boulevard

Hollywood Boulevard takes you back to 1930s Los Angeles. It has Art Deco buildings, pencil-straight palms and a replica of the famous Chinese Theatre where you’ll find Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway.

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge®

Sci-fi fans, this one’s for you. Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge® takes you to the rugged planet of Batuu, where you can see roaming stormtroopers, build lightsabers and fly a spacecraft on Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run.

Toy Story Land

Everything’s oversized in this colourful land, making you feel like you’re as small as Buzz and Woody – think fences made from K’NEX pieces, signs spelt in alphabet blocks and walkways lit up by giant string lights.

Pixar Place

If you love a character meet-and-greet, grab your pen and your autograph book and head for Pixar Place. You can snap selfies with some of the most beloved Pixar characters here, from Sulley to Edna Mode.

Sunset Boulevard

On Sunset Boulevard, you’ll see The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™ standing tall up ahead. The street’s abuzz with swing music and colourful shops, and some of the park’s most loved shows are in this area – don't miss Fantasmic!
