Tokyo Disney Resort Welcomes Its 900 Millionth Guest

Tokyo Disney Resort has reached a landmark milestone, welcoming its 900 millionth guest more than 42 years after Tokyo Disneyland first opened in April 1983. The achievement arrives as the resort looks toward a packed future, including Tokyo DisneySea's year-long 25th Anniversary 'Sparkling Jubilee' celebration beginning in April 2026 and new attractions at both parks.

Tokyo Disney Resort has welcomed its 900 millionth guest, marking a remarkable milestone for the resort that opened with Tokyo Disneyland on April 15, 1983 — more than 42 years ago. The achievement comes as the resort continues to evolve with a packed pipeline of new experiences, including the upcoming Tokyo DisneySea 25th Anniversary "Sparkling Jubilee" celebration and major new attractions at Tokyo Disneyland.

A Historic Milestone for the First International Disney Park

The 900 million guest figure represents more than four decades of continuous operation since Tokyo Disneyland opened in April 1983 as the first Disney theme park outside of the United States. Since then, millions of guests from Japan and around the world have visited the resort, which later expanded with Tokyo DisneySea in 2001 — the only Disney park in the world themed entirely to the sea.

What's Coming to Tokyo DisneySea

Starting in April 2026, Tokyo DisneySea will kick off its 25th Anniversary "Sparkling Jubilee" celebration — a year-long event running through March 2027 featuring new entertainment, park-wide "Jubilee Blue" décor, anniversary merchandise, and special food and beverage items. The resort is also celebrating the 20th anniversary of Duffy and Friends with the "Colorful Happiness" event, featuring a vibrant boat parade through the park's waterways.

Guests can currently explore Fantasy Springs, the stunning new port at Tokyo DisneySea that opened in 2024. The immersive land brings the stories of Frozen, Peter Pan, and Tangled to life with dedicated attractions, themed dining, and enchanting details throughout.

What's Coming to Tokyo Disneyland

Over at Tokyo Disneyland, the resort has announced two major upcoming additions: a new attraction inspired by Walt Disney Animation Studios' Wreck-It Ralph, and a fully reimagined Space Mountain and surrounding area, set to debut in 2027. These additions signal Tokyo Disney Resort's continued commitment to large-scale investment in guest experience.

Duffy and Friends: 20 Years of Joy

Tokyo DisneySea is also celebrating the 20th anniversary of Duffy and Friends with the "Colorful Happiness" event. The highlight is a joyful boat parade featuring Duffy and his pals — ShellieMay, Gelatoni, StellaLou, CookieAnn, 'Olu Mel, and LinaBell — in celebratory outfits, spreading happiness across the resort's waterways.

Why This Milestone Matters

Welcoming the 900 millionth guest underscores Tokyo Disney Resort's standing as one of the world's most-visited theme park destinations. Since the early days of Tokyo Disneyland in 1983 through the landmark opening of Tokyo DisneySea in 2001, the resort has continuously expanded its offerings — and shows no signs of slowing down. With a 25th anniversary celebration, new immersive lands, and two major new attractions in development, the next chapter promises to be as compelling as the last four decades.
