World of Frozen Unveiled in Majestic Grand Opening Ceremony at Hong Kong Disneyland

In anticipation of the official opening of the world’s first Frozen-themed land, World of Frozen, guests from around the world attended “A Spectacular Celebration of World of Frozen” on Thursday, November 16, where they were immersed in the kingdom of Arendelle.

The celebration took place in the center of Arendelle, with Oaken and Kristoff kicking off the event alongside the Hong Kong Disneyland Ambassadors. Special guests included Bob Iger, Chief Executive Officer, The Walt Disney Company; Josh D’Amaro, Chairman, Disney Experiences; Jill Estorino, President and Managing Director of Disney Parks International; Michael Moriarty, Managing Director of Hong Kong Disneyland Resort; Alan Bergman, Co-Chairman, Disney Entertainment; and Jennifer Lee, Chief Creative Officer of Walt Disney Animation Studios and Academy Award^®-winning writer/director of Frozen and Frozen 2.

“The Frozen franchise is one of the most successful in Disney history and it’s a testament to the power of great storytelling, which is the foundation of The Walt Disney Company,” Iger said. “It’s been this way for 100 years, and our commitment to storytelling and creativity will continue to define our next 100.”

D’Amaro shared his enthusiasm for the immersive experience, saying, “This land is now part of the legacy stretching back to Walt’s original dream for Disneyland. World of Frozen transports you to another world, where you can have fun with your loved ones and make some incredible memories together.”
