Lantau Island, Hong Kong — Hong Kong Disneyland opened Sept. 12, 2005, about 10 minutes by car from Hong Kong International Airport, and the Hong Kong government owns 52% of the resort to Disney’s 48%.

In a Nutshell

In fiscal 2025, the year of its 20th anniversary, Hong Kong Disneyland’s park attendance totaled 7.5 million, revenue was HK$8,694 million and net profit was HK$536 million. The anniversary ran from June 28, 2025, to June 7, 2026, and the park followed it with its first Pixar Summer Fest and a nighttime drone show, Pixar Pals Spectacular. In the quarter that ended June 27, 2026, operating income at Disney’s international parks, which are Paris, Hong Kong and Shanghai, fell 13%, and Disney expects the “softness at our Asia parks” to continue into its fiscal fourth quarter. Next for the park is a Pixar theatrical show in an expanded Toy Story Land in the first half of 2027.
