During D23’s Horizons: Disney Experiences Showcase on Saturday, Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro announced that a new attraction inspired by the Avatar franchise is coming to Disneyland.

Imagineer Ali Rubin revealed concept art of the upcoming attraction, which will take guests “on the adventure of a lifetime in search of majestic natural wonders that can only be found on Pandora and the beauty – and danger – that come along with the journey. This new and thrilling excursion will bring all the action, excitement, and wonder of Avatar, taking guests all the way to the wide-open seas of Pandora.”
