Disneyland has demolished the final two ticket booths on the eastern side of its main entrance in Anaheim, California, ending a 71-year feature as the resort prepares for a major expansion. [The Times of India](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/disneyland-tears-down-historic-71-year-old-ticket-booths-amid-major-expansion-plans-including-portos-bakery-new-coco-and-avatar-experiences-and-avengers-campus-attractions-in-2028/articleshow/134950843.cms) reported that the structures were bulldozed, leaving piles of wood and concrete behind construction walls in the Esplanade area. ## Disneyland's Eastern Entrance Demolition Aerial images taken from the Disneyland monorail and shared on social media on Tuesday showed the demolished structures behind construction walls, according to Inside the Magic. The demolition follows the removal of four other ticket booths earlier this year between Disneyland and Disney California Adventure Park. Visitors who prefer purchasing tickets in person now have two remaining booths on the western side of the Esplanade. The booths had been a familiar feature of the resort for decades. The demolition comes as Disney moves ahead with Disneyland Forward, an expansion initiative announced in 2024 that aims to transform the resort and improve how visitors arrive, move around and access its attractions. According to Disney's latest project update, the plans include a new pedestrian bridge over Harbor Boulevard leading to an "all-new esplanade arrival experience," plus a new parking structure and transportation hub designed to accommodate 6,000 vehicles. ## Porto's Bakery and New Attractions A new Porto's Bakery and Cafe location is planned for the Downtown Disney District, as reported by WDW News Today. The bakery was founded by Cuban immigrants who opened their first shop in Echo Park in the 1970s, and the business has expanded to six locations, with the Disneyland resort set to become home to its seventh. "Serving up a fresh new view of what's to come... Construction is officially underway for the all-new Porto's Bakery & Cafe coming to Downtown Disney District!" the bakery said in an Instagram post. Disneyland's expansion plans extend beyond its entrance and dining facilities. Among the announced developments are an expansion of Avengers Campus, with new attractions expected to open in 2028, along with a Coco-themed attraction and an Avatar experience. ## Disneyland Forward's Scale [Disneyland Resort](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0007fft/disneyland-resort) is a wholly-owned Disney operating division in Anaheim, California, running two theme parks, three resort hotels, and the Downtown Disney District, according to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data). The same records value the DisneylandForward expansion initiative at $1.9 billion as part of broader investment driving Anaheim's hotel market repositioning. Over 27 million people visit the Disneyland Resort annually, and Anaheim welcomed a record 26.5 million visitors in 2025 generating $6.8 billion in visitor spending. ## Earlier Changes at Disneyland Disneyland raised ticket prices overnight in October 2026, with mid-priced single-day tickets increasing by $5, while lowest and highest-priced tickets remained unchanged, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported. The resort also removed the Magic Key no-show penalty, though the reservation system persists. In October 2026, a suspicious device found near Disneyland prompted a law enforcement response on Monday night, with Anaheim Police locating it outside the park near the Esplanade area, Yahoo reported. Lemier Mitchell's Happy Ice, a Black-owned dessert shop, began serving water ice at Disneyland on Juneteenth, becoming the resort's first Black-owned dessert shop, Yahoo reported. ## Next Steps for Disneyland Resort Disneyland has agreed with the California Air Resources Board to retire gas-powered Autopia engines and convert to electric vehicles by early 2027. The Avengers Campus expansion attractions are expected to open in 2028. ## Companies in this story - [Disneyland Resort company profile](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0007fft/disneyland-resort) · website: https://disneyland.disney.go.com --- News for Agent · https://newsforagent.com/llms.txt
