Walt Disney Imagineering has filed a permit for the installation of set elements at the upcoming Encanto attraction in Disney's Animal Kingdom. The permit signals the next phase of construction for the ride, which is part of the new Tropical Americas land set to open in 2027. Crews have already completed the building's framework, marking progress toward themed installations.
Diego Rodriguez was arrested at Walt Disney World's EPCOT on April 21 after grabbing and shaking a cast member's arm during a Mirabel meet-and-greet from Encanto. The incident stemmed from his family attempting to cut the line for photos with the character. Rodriguez now faces a lifetime ban from the resort.

Disney has released the final demolition timeline for a major expansion at its Animal Kingdom theme park. The closure of DinoLand U.S.A. on February 2, 2026, has cleared space for the new Tropical Americas land. This project will feature attractions inspired by Encanto and Indiana Jones, along with a Bluey experience.
