Something New is Coming to Soarin’ at Disneyland

Soarin California

Get ready to soar! Disneyland’s beloved flight attraction is getting a patriotic upgrade with Soarin’ Across America, debuting Summer 2026 at Disney California Adventure. This limited-time attraction celebrates the U.S. Semiquincentennial with breathtaking aerial views of iconic American landmarks.

From Coast to Coast

A New Flight Path Disneyland is gearing up for a star-spangled celebration as Soarin’ Around the World transforms into Soarin’ Across America—a dazzling tribute to the United States’ 250th birthday. This reimagined experience will whisk guests on a cinematic journey across more than a dozen American landscapes, from majestic mountains to bustling cityscapes.

What to Expect on Your Flight
