Disney California Adventure Park has unveiled a series of new Black Panther experiences coinciding with the release of “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” which garnered an estimated $180 million in its opening weekend.
“Wakanda is a beacon of hope and inspiration to millions because of its world-class technological advancements and the ingenuity and determination of its people,” said Nikkolas Smith in a release. “The mural ‘Forever Ever’ is inspired by these themes, which are also present in the picture book ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever: The Courage to Dream,’ created by myself and Frederick Joseph.
“It’s super important here, around Avengers Campus, and around the Disney Resort that we get the sense of Wakanda coming to our world, and visiting us here, on the campus,” Serna says. “Most importantly, Black Panther will be appearing here for the first time. So we’ll have a great arrival moment where we’re welcoming her to the campus. Throughout the day, we have a lot of Wakanda activations. The Dora Milaje, ‘Warriors of Wakanda” experience, which we’ve had for a few years now.
The essence of Wakanda continues with new food offerings at Flavors of Wakanda, located in the Disney California Adventure Hollywood Backlot. The pan-African flavors include peri-peri chicken with jollof rice, a peanut stew called Maafe, and a colorful Dawa beverage with butterfly pea-infused tea lemonade.
