The newly relocated Wandering Oakens trading Post and Frozen Snowground is now open at Disney's Hollywood Studios on the Streets of America.

Taking the space of the former AFI Film Institute Showcase at the exit of the now closed Studio Backlot Tour, guests can shop for Frozen merchandise, play in real snow, and buy Frozen themed treats.

The original Wandering Oakens that opened in Soundstage One as part of Frozen Summer Fun has now closed. The ice skating rink from the original is not available in the new Streets of American location.

The joys of magic shots. They can take pictures of nothing and make it look like you were having the time of your life interacting with a character.

Does anyone who's been here know if they sell this Olaf Thermos?

Just saw the new location in person. *Looks* good, but poor layout in the snow room. Because of all the people taking photos with that app, you can't really get from the store to the snow or food without squeezing by or ruining a photo. Oh well.

Last day at SS1 was Sunday 9/28 then the AFI store opened the next day 9/29.

There is an app that folks are using that put olaf or anna and elsa next to yo on that bridge! That's why they are doing it!

So the Soundstage One shop remained open through 9/29 or the AFI location opened on 9/29?

Was there any downtime between the two locations?

I noticed the photopass CM's set up taking pics in one of the photo's. What are they taking photo's of? Just people standing by a fake snow bridge and fake background? Seems a little silly. Maybe if they had Olaf or someone there to take a picture with.

FYI a variation of DHS' Frozen premium package is coming back with dessert party next to Osbornes along with sing-along reserved seating and a lithogrpah, pin and "keepsake" (don't know what it is). Price is $89/adult instead of $149 like before.

They moved out of the soundstage into a smaller building... the former AFI Showcase (Backlot Tour exit). TSMM will be expanding into where the ice rink/snow area was before (Soundstage 1).

There is a space to make a Snowman. The snow looks like shaved ice. Then there is a ice skating rink were for $10.00 you can rent skates and skate for 30 minutes.
