A new Pirates of the Caribbean-themed lounge is coming to Adventureland at Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World. 

Disney says this first-of-its-kind experience will extend the story of Pirates of the Caribbean, and Imagineers are in the design process now, with more details coming in the future. Disney did reveal one small detail - the Barker Bird animatronic (pictured in the concept art) will make a welcome return.

The most likely location for the new lounge is the former Pirates League makeover experience space.

Throw in some Adventurer's Club animatronics on the walls and I'll be happy.

The Swinging Wake... Happy Haunts? Madame Leota on a shelf behind the bar could periodically materialize in her ball and do her incantation to "Serpents and Spiders...Tail of a rat...Call In The Spirits....Wherever they're At" every so often....

You would be lucky to get premix punch in RFID cups let alone time and space to take in theming

Yeah, they could call it Memento Margarita.

Actually that is an idea I kind of like...lol a sort of bypass for the adults without kids.... A very well done Haunted Mansion version would be amazing....

Dawn of a new era if you exit through a bar rather than a gift shop

Honestly I kinda would like that if that is what happens

I wonder if Tortgua Tavern becomes the permanent gift shop for Pirates, so more of the old one can be used for the tavern with a little bit of spade for merch?

The length of the space is almost the length of the former Piartes Gift shop you exited into, but with that said, judging by construction and the new concept art, it seems like part of the bar will be built into the gift shop.

So if it's a different room and not a redo on the original concept art (which, YAY!, because I think both look good) how big is this space because I thought this was gonna be a small room, and this seems like the size of maybe Docking Bay 7 would be my guest

The kraken would be a popular favorite among asian tourists but I doubt disney would go that far.

Old one showed again. This one was first shown at D23 in August with the Summer 2025 opening announcement

Yes. Also Disney is pushing that looting and pillaging under $950 will not be felonies and not prosecuted.

Is this piece also new to D23 Brazil or is it an old one they just showed again?
