The name and all 22 figures have been revealed for the Disney-themed carousel coming to the Tropical Americas expansion at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

What's Happening:

• This news was revealed during the Disney Experiences Showcase at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event.
• The attraction will feature 22 different Disney animated characters brought to life by artisen wood carvers.
• Among the characters included in the carousel are the Genie, Scuttle, Kuzco, Kaa, Heimlich, Pascal, Simba, and many more.

• Guests can also anticipate exciting new Encanto and Indiana Jones attractions in the area set to replace DinoLand U.S.A. – both of which we got more details for during the panel.
• The Encanto attraction promises to bring The Casita to life, with furniture taking guests on a journey throughout the house before heading to Antonio’s rainforest-filled room.
• The latter attraction, taking over from DINOSAUR, will apparently be quite different from the Indy ride in Anaheim.
