LEARN FROM AN IMAGINEER: PARK BUILDERS EXPERIENCE – 7:00 pm
Enjoy an evening with former Disney Imagineers, where you will have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn how to design your very own theme park. Guests will learn about the design, decision-making, and management process that Disney Imagineers have to go through as they are building new rides, new lands, and even a full new theme park. The guests will then apply what they learned and have the chance to do it themselves, including getting critiques from actual theme park designers. This experience runs for 3 hours.
