Disney has announced that a third track is coming to Toy Story Mania at Disney's Hollywood Studios

By WDWMAGIC Staff · Thursday March 5, 2015 12:18pm EST · "Toy Story Mania"

Along with today's announcement of the expansion to Epcot's Soarin' attraction, also comes the confirmation that a third track will be built at Toy Story Mania.

The hugely popular Toy Story Mania at Disney's Hollywood Studios has faced long waits and high FastPass+ demand since opening, and work began in October of last year on refitting Soundstage One as an additional track. You can read more about the project from our original article last year.

Disney did not release any specific information on the makeup of the expansion, but did announce a late 2016 opening date.

*sigh*

Thanks for the pic @marni1971
this just seems like a long time...shockingly I know
It wouldn't have two hour plus wait if there was actually other attractions in MGM

It's almost as long as the original attraction took to build.
It is a ridiculously long time for a ride expansion. This has a 2 year build time to add one track? :banghead: I hope there is a reason to drag this sooo long, like tying to a movie release or having to fit around other projects. If not, then I have one word "Pathetic"

To revert from my frustration and negativity, I think it is great that the expansions are being done to 2 of the most popular rides in WDW. Just come on and get them done!
Is this why the Backlot Tour closed up?

I don't think so, this expansion is being done in Soundstage 1 which was last used for the Frozen skating.
Absurd that it will take that long. It's also stupid to announce it this far in advance, especially when it's not a new attraction.

Where exactly is Soundstage 1? Is it the building Jack Sparrow was formerly located?
So disney logic is to add theaters and tracks to existing rides (which are not even particularly awesome rides to begin with) instead of just opening up new rides?

Ok.

No, its on the other side of Toy Story (left side if you are facing the front).
The TSMM timetable I heard is nothing close to that. He must mean for both in general.
BOOOOOO DISNEY. Stop adding third tracks to existing rides... ADD RIDES SO TWO TRACKS CAN BE MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR GUESTS

Gimme cars land, mystic manor, Star Wars land, crush coaster, monsters inc door coaster, toy story play land .. NOT MORE OF THE SAME!!!

Rant over.

The permit for TSMM does run until 9/30/2016.
