The park will be Disney's most popular theme park, passing Magic Kingdom.

[{"selector":"#anim-4f7cdd8d-d3a6-4518-bcf1-b76b5927bdce","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b742f39c-ae43-490b-969a-1dcff817755a","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 160.87368%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4042b4e9-04c3-472e-8d65-188bd4803c8e [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(-7.105427357601002e-15%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Disney may have the option to acquire Hello Kitty based on the theme park's success.

[{"selector":"#anim-f58d7c70-2220-4f86-9d20-c35806f5367d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c0aef34b-2669-498d-bbc7-87f0d6ef0809","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 160.87368%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-625ce6ec-d9af-47ff-be79-723ef0567ed4 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Disney is using this strategy again and will license Hello Kitty from Sanrio in order to build this new park.

[{"selector":"#anim-fa0ebd64-ffb1-49d4-bf1b-025c88931fa7","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-7a9b9289-da32-4404-a7a7-c4e2673d60ed","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 144.76418%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-cdae2289-dca5-45f1-b012-c2eb8af4272c [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]
