Disneyland Sets a New Standard

Disneyland developed concepts from the World’s Fairs and Coney Island and redefined what an amusement park could be. These ideas and practices are what shaped the regionals that were to follow.

America’s Disneylands is produced by Rivershore Creative. Find out more about regional park history at americasdisneylands.com, and find great books at rivershorepress.com. For the complete history of America’s regional theme parks, grab a copy of Imagineering an American Dreamscape, available everywhere. Thanks for listening!
