San Fransokyo Update: Disney's California Adventure

Guess what?! Disney's California Adventure Park San Fransokyo Public Works Department has been diligently beautifying and making improvements to the local cannery district, which is home to a diverse neighborhood of eateries and businesses. In a previous post, I shared some awesome details about San Fransokyo coming to Disney's California Adventure Park. Soon you'll see in the industrious mash-up city from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Academy Award-winning film “Big Hero 6.”

Over the summer, the local culinary hot spots will be transformed, starting in mid-July! Guests will be able to sample new San Fransokyo selections at Lucky Fortune Cookery, and the Port of San Fransokyo Cervecería will officially open. In the weeks following, additional dining options, unique shopping, and more will be introduced as the transformation of this thriving seaside plaza continues through mid-August.

When the transformation is completed, locations across the area – from the Cappuccino Cart outside the San Fransokyo Gate Bridge to The Bakery Tour – will be decked out in street art and colorful banners celebrating the Big Hero 6 team after their victory over Yokai.

Let's take a closer look at the upcoming places guests can explore and visit at San Fransokyo Square!

Delight in an opportunity to interact with Hiro and his huggable healthcare companion, Baymax, you can find them just outside the Hamada Bot Shop. This is where the Big Hero 6 team builds and innovates their hi-tech gear, so Guests may also see a few of their upcoming inventions.

Nearby the Hamada Bot Shop will be the San Fransokyo Maker’s Market, filled with unique apparel, homewares, and so much more featuring Baymax and friends. In the concept art above, the market’s shelves are presented as robot storage cases, with decommissioned battle bots on display. Eagle eyes can easily spot the rafters overhead, they may spot the local battle bot champion, Hiro’s Megabot!

For my penny press collectors, you'll notice nearby there's a vending machine that dispenses collectible golden medallions featuring Baymax and other iconic images from San Fransokyo.

So many interesting eateries and small cafe shops popping up with the full Big Hero 6 theme, from Aunt Cass Cafè operated by Hiro's aunt to Rita's Turbine Benders.
