Disneyland fans beg for return of beloved '60s attraction shuttered decades ago

Disneyland’s newly announced Tomorrowland overhaul has reignited calls from fans to bring back the PeopleMover, a classic attraction shuttered more than three decades ago.

Thomas Mazloum, chairman of Disney Experiences, unveiled the Tomorrowland plans during the D23 fan convention on Aug. 15.

Mazloum offered few specifics about what the reimagining would entail, instead framing the project around Disneyland’s upcoming 75th anniversary in 2030 and its future.

Not everyone was convinced the Tomorrowland overhaul would pave the way for the PeopleMover’s return.

“It is so light on details it could mean anything,” one person wrote. “I wouldn’t get my hopes up about it — this could easily be 5-10 years out.”

“They’d have to make a new track,” a second commenter said. “The current one is unfit for use.”

Another claimed, “PeopleMover is not coming back.”

Disneyland has made headlines for other developments in recent months.

In the spring, Disneyland drew attention for its enforcement of restrictions on loose items and handheld filming on certain high-motion rides.

In the first week of July, Disneyland welcomed its one billionth guest — “a remarkable milestone for Disneyland Resort and a testament to the generations of guests who have made this special place part of their lives,” said Jill Estorino, Disneyland Resort’s president, in a statement at the time, as Fox Business reported. 

In late July, a citywide water pressure outage in Anaheim temporarily disrupted operations at the park, forcing the closure of restrooms and restaurants.
