A scale-model of the planned section
Dumbo's Circus Land was a never-built section of Disneyland that was to have opened in 1976. It would have been built on the spot where Fantasyland Theatre is now located.
However, it would later be the inspiration for Storybook Circus at Magic Kingdom.
Attractions[]
In addition to the relocation of Dumbo the Flying Elephant and the Casey Jr. Circus Train to its section of the park, Dumbo's Circus Land was to have featured three new attractions:
Mickey's Madhouse: A funhouse-themed dark ride based on the vintage Mickey Mouse cartoons; this ride was to have featured Mickey and the gang performing antics to various ragtime music pieces.
Unnamed Pinocchio attraction: A predecessor to Pinocchio's Daring Journey that would have included Stromboli's theatre in the queue where guests could watch puppet performances while waiting to board.
Circus Disney: An audio-animatronic big-top show that would've featured a menagerie of various Disney characters performing circus acts including Elliott, Baloo and King Louie, Goofy, Dumbo, Horace Horsecollar and Bongo and Lulubelle.
