Disney operates in three global business segments: entertainment, sports, and experiences. Entertainment and experiences both benefit from the firm's ownership of iconic franchises and characters. Entertainment includes the ABC broadcast network, several cable television networks, and the Disney+ and Hulu streaming services. Within the segment, Disney also engages in movie and television production and distribution, with content licensed to movie theaters, other content providers, or, increasingly, kept in-house for use on Disney's own streaming platform and television networks. The sports segment houses ESPN and the ESPN+ streaming service. Experiences contains Disney's theme parks and vacation destinations, and also benefits from merchandise licensing.

10 Communication Services Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) is reshaping its streaming strategy, cutting back on sheer content volume and doubling down on premium franchises, all while striking licensing deals like sending Scooby-Doo over to Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>).
What Happened: On Thursday, during the company's first-quarter earnings call, WBD CEO David Zaslav explained how the company is moving away from the old "more is better" streaming mindset.
He praised the success of Warner Bros. Television Group CEO Channing Dungey's team, noting a strong performance with high-profile projects such as "Ted Lasso" and "Presumed Innocent" for Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>).
Zaslav highlighted that Presumed Innocent originated as a WBD title and was transformed into a compelling series before being sold to Apple — a deal he described as &#8220;very good business&#8221; for the company.
He also pointed to other notable titles like Shrinking, Bad Monkey, and Abbott Elementary—the latter being sold to Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>)—as evidence of WBD&#8217;s reputation as a high-quality content provider.

However, he made a clear distinction when it comes to certain intellectual properties. Core franchises like "Wonder Woman," "Batman," "Superman" and "Supergirl," currently being developed under James Gunn and Peter Safran's 10-year DC roadmap, are being cultivated as global asset builders exclusive to Warner Bros. Discovery.
The WBD CEO said the same applies to "Harry Potter," noting a decade-long commitment with author JK Rowling and "Game of Thrones" as part of the studio's long-term strategy to develop and retain premium, globally recognizable IP.
&#8220;Those belong to us and they'll only belong to us forever because we're building big assets and a global differentiated strategy around that,&#8221; he stated.
However, Warner Bros. isn't locking up every piece of its massive library. Zaslav pointed to the recent example of Scooby-Doo, where the company sold a new show to Netflix to reach a broader audience.&nbsp;
Subscribe to the&nbsp;<a href="https://bztechtrends.beehiiv.com/subscribe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Tech Trends newsletter</a>&nbsp;to get all the latest tech developments delivered to your inbox.
"In some cases, we'll find with Scooby-Doo, we can sell something to Ted [Sarandos] and Netflix, and that can get very broad acceptance in the marketplace," Zaslav said. "And then we can follow it with a Scooby-Doo movie — that would be a real win-win for us."
WBD CFO Gunnar Wiedenfels added that this strategy shift does not mean Warner Bros. will dramatically ramp up or slash spending.
"We have significant growth ambitions for the streaming service and for the studio," he said, noting the company will support those goals with moderate increases in content spending over time.
Why It's Important: Warner Bros. posted a 9% year-over-year revenue decline (excluding foreign exchange impacts) to $8.98 billion, falling short of the analyst consensus estimate of $9.60 billion.
Streaming revenue rose 9% year-over-year (excluding foreign exchange effects) to $2.66 billion. The growth was driven in part by an 8% increase in distribution revenue, fueled by a 23% surge in subscribers thanks to Max's ongoing global rollout and new domestic distribution agreements.
Price Action: WBD shares rose 0.43% to $9.05 in Thursday's after-hours trading, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Warner Bros. Discovery Pulling Back From 'More Is Better' Streaming Strategy, Bets Big On Premium Content — And Letting Scooby-Doo Sniff Out New Fans On Netflix

Shares of The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) continue to rally on Thursday after a more than 10% increase on Wednesday. It was driven by news that the company posted stronger-than-expected growth, in part due to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45293256/disney-stock-resilient-in-uncertain-economy-as-raised-guidance-signals-confidence"> demand at US theme parks.</a>
The announcement caused the stock to break out, and now it may even be getting close to another breakout. Benzinga&#8217;s team of expert technical analysts has made it our Stock of the Day.
Stock rallies tend to end or halt when they reach resistance levels. These are price levels or narrow zones where there is a large amount of sell interest.
If a market is trending higher there aren't enough sellers to fill the orders of the buyers. Investors and traders who wish to purchase shares are forced to outbid each other and pay premiums if they want to acquire shares.
This forces the market into an uptrend.
But when it reaches resistance, there is enough supply to satisfy all of the demand, and the price stops moving higher.

Resistance can form in markets because of buyer's remorse.
As you can see on the chart, there was resistance for Disney around $101.65 in March. The rally ended at this price and the stock reversed and went lower.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="588" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/08144321/dis-1024x588.png" alt="" class="wp-image-908809" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/08144321/dis-1024x588.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/08144321/dis-300x172.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/08144321/dis-768x441.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/08144321/dis.png 1429w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
When this happened, many of the people who bought at that level regretted doing so. Some vowed to exit their positions at breakeven if they could eventually do so.
So, when the stock rallied back to that price, these remorseful buyers placed sell orders. There were enough of these orders to form resistance at the price again. This is why the move higher stalled at this level on Wednesday.
But the news made Disney break this resistance.
This indicated that the sellers who created the resistance were out of the way. With this supply off the market, buyers had to get aggressive and the stock made a big move higher.
Now the shares have encountered resistance around $106.50. There is resistance here because of buyer's remorse as well.
Remorseful buyers who purchased shares at support around $106.50 in January are selling. This has caused resistance to form.
If the buyers can overpower the sellers, as they did at the $101.65 level, another big move higher may follow.

Disney shares are trading higher on continued strength following the company's recent earnings report.

Walt Disney Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) analysts highlight strong parks and streaming growth with raised guidance after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45251203/disney-rides-strong-subscriber-growth-and-movie-hits-lifts-forecast-with-1-billion-streaming-goal">first-quarter results. </a>
The Disney Analysts: Bank of America analyst Jessica Reif Ehrlich reiterated a Buy rating on Disney with a $140 price target.
Guggenheim analyst Michael Morris maintained a Buy rating and lowered the price target from $130 to $120.
Needham analyst Laura Martin maintained a Buy rating with a $125 price target.

Bank of America on DIS: The media giant had a "resilient" quarter despite macro trends, Ehrlich said in a new investor note.
The analyst said revenue, operating income, earnings per share and free cash flow were all above expectations.
Ehrlich said Disney raising its full-year earnings per share was "encouraging considering recent macro volatility."
"While DIS did not raise FY25 Experiences guidance, future bookings data is strong, with Walt Disney World bookings up 4% in 3Q and 7% in 4Q," Ehrlich said.
The analyst said near-term catalysts include profitability inflection for the direct-to-consumer segment, reacceleration of the Parks business, and a strong film slate that drives the other business segments.
Guggenheim on DIS: Morris also highlighted the "resilience" shown by Disney in key categories despite the macro concerns.
"Broad-based beat coupled with management maintaining and/or raising most FY25 guidance and longer-term EPS growth outlook underpin confidence in our Buy rating," Morris said.
The analyst said that management commentary highlighted strong domestic park bookings over the next two quarters and said advertising revenue will likely come in ahead of previous guidance.
"DTC subscriber trends remain healthy, with management highlighting churn/engagement benefit from Hulu integration within Disney+."
The analyst said Disney&#8217;s long-term strength includes Parks growth and a renewed focus on profitable growth for media and entertainment, while consumer demand uncertainty and linear network decline remain concerns.
Needham on DIS: Raised earnings per share guidance and a newly announced Disney theme park highlighted in the quarter for Martin, who called it a "strong" quarter.
Martin said the launch of ESPN&#8217;s flagship streaming platform in the fourth quarter is another item to look forward to, as there will be an option to bundle it with Hulu and Disney.
"DIS believes that there's nothing like this subscription-driven bundle in the streaming industry. It's unrivaled in terms of quality, in terms of volume, and in terms of variety," Martin said.
The analyst highlighted Disney's DTC segment having its fourth consecutive profitable quarter with the company saying full-year DTC operating profit is expected to be over $1 billion.
"This strong profit growth suggests that Disney+ and Hulu are on track to achieve long-term sustainable profitability."
DIS Price Action: Disney stock was up 3.1% to $105.27 on Thursday, versus a 52-week trading range of $80.10 to $118.63. However, Disney stock is down 5% year-to-date in 2025, while shares have remained nearly flat over the last year.

Analysts usually derive their information from company conference calls and meetings, financial statements, and conversations with important insiders to reach their decisions.
In addition to their assessments, some analysts extend their insights by offering predictions for key metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates.

Needham Reiterates Buy on Walt Disney, Maintains $125 Price Target

U.S. stock futures rose on Thursday after two days of advance on Wednesday. Futures of major benchmark indices were higher in premarket.
This followed the Federal Reserve&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45266366/powell-flags-sharp-tariff-shock-elevated-uncertainty-fed-sticks-to-wait-and-see-mode">decision to hold the interest rate</a> steady at 4.25% to 4.5% on Wednesday. 
"The tariff increases announced so far have been significantly larger than anticipated," Fed Chair Jerome Powell said.
He noted that if the tariffs are sustained, they could lead to higher inflation, weaker growth, and a rise in unemployment, directly undermining the Fed&#8217;s dual mandate.
"We don&#8217;t think we need to be in a hurry. We are going to be watching the data. It may move quickly or slowly. But we&#8217;re well-positioned to wait," he said.
Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.31% and the two-year bond was at 3.82%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>&#8216;s projections show markets pricing a 79.8% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its June meeting.

He suggested considering whether to take a long or short position based on the index&#8217;s historical performance. Analyzing the technical patterns, Timmer concluded that establishing or increasing &#8220;long&#8221; positions appeared to be the more favorable strategy.
Timmer stated that the S&amp;P 500 appears to have gravitated back to this long-term uptrend line. This convergence, according to Timmer, suggests that the &#8220;market has found its balance.&#8221;

Scott Wren, the senior global market strategist at Wells Fargo, stated in his weekly note that &#8220;Further near-term upside in the S&amp;P 500 Index is likely limited, and we expect to see more downside volatility before the tariff uncertainties are resolved.&#8221;
According to Wren, central bankers keep telling us they are "data dependent." That means Chair Powell and the other voting Federal Open Market Committee members need to see the data that tells the Federal Reserve the labor environment is weak and/or inflation readings are coming down consistently.
&#8220;In the meantime, we are looking into 2026 and seeing an economic and earnings recovery. For now, while volatility remains the likely headline, we prefer to focus on quality, like large- and mid-cap U.S. equities, and favor the Energy, Communication Services, Information Technology, and Financials sectors,&#8221; he added.

Dow Surges Over 250 Points Following Fed Decision: Investor Sentiment Improves, Fear Index In 'Greed' Zone

The Walt Disney Co.&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) domestic theme parks are delivering excellent returns on investment, providing strong validation for the company&#8217;s $30 billion capital expenditure plan despite prevailing macroeconomic concerns.
What Happened: This stellar performance within the Experiences segment was a key highlight of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/05/45260938/disneys-new-abu-dhabi-theme-park-will-be-authentically-disney-and-distinctly-emirati-ceo-bob-iger-says">Disney&#8217;s second-quarter 2025 earnings</a>, contributing significantly to the company exceeding overall financial expectations and fueling over a 10% rally in its stock price on Wednesday.
CEO Bob Iger said the &#8220;outstanding performance from our domestic businesses&#8221; within the Experiences division, noting that investments in this segment have achieved &#8220;all time highs&#8221; in terms of returns. 
This robust profitability underscores the effectiveness of Disney&#8217;s strategy to enhance its theme parks in Florida and California. The $30 billion investment initiative is aimed at not only upgrading offerings and creating employment but also strategically increasing park capacity to accommodate more guests without compromising the visitor experience, according to Iger. &nbsp;

Why It Matters: The strong performance of the domestic parks played a crucial role in Disney surpassing analyst projections for both earnings per share and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/05/45260938/disneys-new-abu-dhabi-theme-park-will-be-authentically-disney-and-distinctly-emirati-ceo-bob-iger-says">revenue in the second quarter</a>. 
This positive momentum allowed the company to raise its full-year earnings per share guidance, signaling management&#8217;s confidence in the continued strength of this segment and its ability to navigate potential economic headwinds. Forward-looking indicators for the domestic parks remain positive, with bookings for Walt Disney World showing increases of 4% and 7% for the third and fourth quarters, respectively. &nbsp;
While Disney is also pursuing growth <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/05/45260938/disneys-new-abu-dhabi-theme-park-will-be-authentically-disney-and-distinctly-emirati-ceo-bob-iger-says">through international expansions</a>, such as the upcoming theme park in Abu Dhabi, the current record returns from its domestic parks underscore the enduring appeal and profitability of its core theme park business in the United States.

Disney's $30 Billion Theme Park Bet Pays Off As Bob Iger Touts 'All-Time High' Returns, Stock Rallies 10% After Q2 Earnings

On Wednesday, Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) CEO Bob Iger acknowledged that Marvel Studios stretched itself too thin by producing too much content for streaming.
What Happened: Speaking on Disney's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45251203/disney-rides-strong-subscriber-growth-and-movie-hits-lifts-forecast-with-1-billion-streaming-goal">second-quarter 2025 earnings</a> call, Iger admitted that Marvel's heavy focus on producing content for Disney+ led to creative strain and diluted quality.
"We all know that in our zeal to flood our streaming platform with more content that we turned to all of our creative engines, including Marvel, and had them produce a lot more," Iger said, adding, "We've also learned over time that quantity does not necessarily beget quality."
To address this, Iger said Disney is now <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/03/44518045/disney-assembles-avengers-x-men-fantastic-four-in-upcoming-marvel-movie">consolidating Marvel's efforts</a> and refocusing on theatrical films over Disney+ series. He highlighted "Thunderbolts" as the first example of this new approach.

Why It's Important: Thunderbolts brought in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/05/45199354/disney-marvels-thunderbolts-opens-to-162-million-globally">$76 million at the domestic box office</a> during its opening weekend across 4,330 theaters, with an additional $86.1 million earned internationally. The film was produced on a budget of roughly $180 million.
Since acquiring Marvel for $4 billion in 2009, Disney has seen a massive return on investment. All four Avengers films now sit among the 15 highest-grossing movies of all time. As of August 2024, Marvel has reportedly contributed an estimated $13.2 billion in value to Disney.
Last year, at San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel stunned fans with the unexpected announcement that Robert Downey Jr. would return to the MCU—not as Iron Man, but as the legendary villain Doctor Doom. Avengers: Doomsday is scheduled to hit theaters on May 1, 2026.

Bob Iger Admits Marvel Lost Focus By Making Too Much Content, Saying 'Quantity Does Not Necessarily Beget Quality' — Here's What Disney Plans To Do Now

BofA Securities analyst Jessica Reif Ehrlich maintained a Buy rating on Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DIS/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $140</a> on Wednesday.
Disney reported a solid fiscal second quarter, with revenue and operating income above Ehrlich&#8217;s expectations. Total fiscal second-quarter revenue grew 7% to $23.6 billion (versus Ehrlich&#8217;s $23.4 billion estimate), and operating income increased 15% to $4.44 billion (versus Ehrlich&#8217;s $4.13 billion estimate).
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45251203/disney-rides-strong-subscriber-growth-and-movie-hits-lifts-forecast-with-1-billion-streaming-goal" rel="noreferrer noopener">Disney Lifts Forecast With $1 Billion Streaming Goal, Abu Dhabi Park Deal And More</a>
Adjusted EPS of $1.45 was well above Ehrlich&#8217;s forecast of $1.25. By segment, Entertainment operating income was $1.26 billion (versus Ehrlich&#8217;s $1.02 billion estimate), Sports operating income was $687 million (versus Ehrlich&#8217;s $700 million estimate), and Experiences operating income was $2.49 billion (versus Ehrlich&#8217;s $2.41 billion estimate). 
Free cash flow of $4.9 billion was well above Ehrlich&#8217;s $2.3 billion estimate. Disney raised its fiscal 2025 outlook to 16% adjusted EPS growth (to $5.75) from high single-digit adjusted EPS growth, which is encouraging considering recent macro volatility. For the fiscal third quarter, management now expects a modest increase in Disney+ subscribers compared to the second quarter.
Within Entertainment, Linear Networks operating income was $769 million (versus Ehrlich&#8217;s $636 million) as a decrease in marketing costs primarily attributable to fewer new shows than the prior year was able to offset lower domestic advertising and flattish affiliate revenue. DTC operating income of $336 million was above Ehrlich&#8217;s $280 million estimate reflecting revenue growth of 8% (versus Ehrlich&#8217;s 11% estimate) driven by an increase in subscription revenue due to higher effective rates and more subscribers partially offset by an unfavorable foreign exchange impact and the absence of Star India subscription revenue.
Content Sales/Licensing operating income was above Ehrlich&#8217;s estimate at $153 million (versus $100 million estimate) reflecting revenue of $2.1 billion (versus Ehrlich&#8217;s $1.8 billion estimate) driven by higher TV/VOD distribution and an increase in home entertainment distribution results. 
Within Experiences, fiscal second-quarter Experiences revenue was $8.89 billion (versus Ehrlich&#8217;s $8.72 billion estimate), driven by 9% growth in domestic revenue and a -5% decline in International revenue. Experiences operating income increased by 9% Y/Y (+13% domestic operating income and -23% international operating income) due to growth at domestic parks and Disney Vacation Club and Cruise lines partially offset by lower attendance and increased costs at Shanghai and Hong Kong resorts. 
In Domestic Experiences, higher volumes were attributable to increased passenger cruise days and theme park attendance. In contrast, the increased guest spending was due to higher spending at domestic theme parks.
In the Sports segment revenue was +5% Y/Y at $4.53 billion (versus Ehrlich&#8217;s $4.46 billion estimate) while operating income decreased to $687mn (versus Ehrlich&#8217;s $700 million estimate). Operating results domestically were driven by an increase in production and programming costs primarily attributable to airing three additional College Football Playoff (CFP) games, advertising revenue growth due to the rise in rates and average viewership, and a modest increase in affiliate revenue reflecting higher rates, offset mainly by fewer subscribers.
Price Actions: DIS stock was up 10.7% at $102.09 on Wednesday.

Disney Stock Is Surging Wednesday: Here's Why

Media and theme park giant Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) is headed to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45251203/disney-rides-strong-subscriber-growth-and-movie-hits-lifts-forecast-with-1-billion-streaming-goal">new theme park coming.</a>
The new theme park resort set for Yas Island will be the seventh major theme park under the Disney name. Here's a look back at Disney's past theme park openings and how the stock has performed.

Abu Dhabi Theme Park: Alongside second-quarter financial results, Disney announced it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/b45249979/the-walt-disney-company-and-miral-announce-plans-for-disney-theme-park-and-resort-on-yas-island-ab">will open a future theme park </a>on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
Disney is partnering with destinations and experiences company Miral, which is a leader in Abu Dhabi in the sector. Miral will develop and build the theme park with Disney and its Imagineers leading creative design.
"The collaboration between Abu Dhabi and Disney demonstrates the remarkable results of combining visionary leadership and creative excellence. What we are creative with Disney in Abu Dhabi is a whole new world of imagination — an experience that will inspire generations across the region and the world," Miral Chairman, His Excellency Mohamed Khalifa Al Mubarak said.
Miral has opened several theme parks in the region, including the first SeaWorld outside of North America that opened on Yas Island in May 2023. Miral has also partnered with Ferrari, Warner Bros. and others on other theme park and destination resorts.
"As our seventh theme park destination, it will rise from this land in spectacular fashion, blending contemporary architecture with cutting-edge technology to offer guests deeply immersive entertainment experiences in unique and modern ways," Disney CEO Bob Iger said.
Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D'Amaro said the new theme park will be the most advanced and interactive destination of any Disney theme park.
Yas Island is located 20 minutes from downtown Abu Dhabi and 50 minutes from Dubai. Over 120 million people travel through Abu Dhabi and Dubai each year, with the UAE the largest global airline hub in the world. The UAE is within a four-hour flight for around one-third of the population of the world, which makes the region a key to future tourism.
There is no date for the planned opening, with a strong likelihood that the newest Disney theme park will come in the 2030s.
Disney's Theme Park Growth: Disney opened Disneyland in California on July 17, 1955, as its first theme park, ushering in an era of being able to highlight its intellectual property to families and new fans.
Disney later opened Disney World on Oct. 1, 1971, in Florida, five years after initial plans were announced. The theme park is the most visited in the world today and one of the keys to the current and future success of Disney.
Here are the six existing Disney theme park locations with their opening dates and how the stock traded at open, the end of the year the park opened, and one year after the park was opened. Disney stock price is adjusted for stock splits and dividends.

As shown in the chart, the openings of theme parks in Florida, Japan and France didn't have a huge positive impact on the share price of Disney.
Fast forward to 2005, when a theme park was opened in Hong Kong and Disney stock gained 21.5% in one year from the park's opening date.
The opening of Shanghai Disneyland may have also helped boost the Disney stock price, with shares gaining 8.8% in one year.
Why It's Important: According to <a href="https://aecom.com/wp-content/uploads/documents/reports/AECOM-Theme-Index-2023.pdf">AECOM</a>, Disney has eight of the top 10 most visited theme parks, counting the smaller regions of individual Disney theme park locations.
Here are the top-visited locations, based on visitors from 2023:
<ol>
<li>Magic Kingdom (Disney World): 17.7 million</li>
<li>Disneyland Park (Disneyland): 17.3 million</li>
<li>Universal Studios Japan (Comcast-owned, not Disney): 16.0 million</li>
<li>Tokyo Disneyland: 15.1 million</li>
<li>Shanghai Disneyland: 14.0 million</li>
</ol>
Disneyland Paris ranks ninth at 10.4 million visitors with Hong Kong Disneyland ranking 17th with 6.4 million visitors. Park locations such as Epcot, which is part of Disney World, also rank on the list with Epcot 8th at 12 million visitors in 2023.
Theme parks in the Middle East are a newer item to watch, with Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi opening in 2018 and SeaWorld opening in 2023. Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi had an attendance of 1.75 million in 2023. SeaWorld had attendance of 1.3 million in the seven months of 2023 it was open.
For Disney, the theme park will likely have millions of visitors annually and the partnership with Miral could bring in annual high-margin licensing revenue, depending on how the deal was structured. More importantly, the new theme park could put Disney characters in front of millions of people around the world, which could help boost movie revenue, streaming revenue and consumer product revenue.
