Encanto Attraction Milestone Marked by Beam Signing With Walt Disney World President Jeff Vahle and Cast

Walt Disney World President Jeff Vahle joined Cast Members this week at Disney’s Animal Kingdom to mark a milestone for the Encanto attraction in Tropical Americas. Together, they signed a steel beam that will become part of the ride’s show building, a tradition that recognizes the people behind the project as construction moves forward.

The signed beam will be installed as part of the Encanto ride structure, permanently embedding the Cast Members’ contributions into the attraction.

This milestone comes as Tropical Americas continues to advance across the former Dino-Rama area. With steel now rising for the Encanto attraction, the project has entered one of its most visible phases of construction.
