"According to the building permits filed by Disney with the city of Anaheim, the company is planning upgrades to the interior and exterior of the building. Outside, the plan is to "replace 42 gas tiki torches with epoxy anchors." Behind the scenes, an electrical room is getting an air conditioner installed, and upgrades are planned to "mechanical, electrical and plumbing.""
"It's unlikely Disneyland will remove existing effects, like the ship in a bottle that "sinks" any time a guest orders a Shipwreck on the Rocks cocktail, or the window that looks out onto Mount Krakatoa, which "erupts" when someone asks for a Krakatoa Punch, but will rather "plus" (Disney's term for enhancing an attraction) the space with additional show elements."
Disney filed permits for renovations at Trader Sam's Enchanted Tiki Bar. Plans call for interior and exterior upgrades, replacing 42 gas tiki torches with epoxy anchors, adding air conditioning to an electrical room, and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing improvements. Permits request replacement of interior show effects, show lighting, and lighting systems to enhance enchanted elements. Existing effects like the sinking ship-in-a-bottle and Krakatoa window are likely to be retained and augmented rather than removed. The permit is under plan review with no renovation timeline announced. Trader Sam's opened in 2011; two bartenders earned the Walt Disney Legacy Award this year.
