The castle will also feature a brand new bibbidi-bobbidi boutique, which has debuted before the castle in 2019.

It will be the third attraction to open as part of the park’s multi-year expansion from 2018 to 2023. However, it may be delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the park's second closure.

History

On November 22, 2016, the Walt Disney Company and the Hong Kong Government announced plans for a multi-year, HK$10.9 billion expansion of Hong Kong Disneyland. The proposed expansion includes Arendelle: World of Frozen, Stark Expo, multiple new attractions, and live entertainment.

Hong Kong Disneyland Resort revealed creative details about the upcoming castle transformation — an important part of the park’s ongoing multi-year expansion plan on 8 December 2017.
