Earlier today we shared that Disneyland would temporarily close through the end of the month due to Coronavirus concerns.

Now we have found out that more parks are following suit.
UPDATE: While it previously announced that Disneyland Paris would be closed starting Sunday, March 15, Disney has made an update and the park will now close beginning Saturday, March 14th. The date has been changed based on updated direction from French authorities.

While the theme parks will be closed during this time, all hotels at Disneyland Paris and the Disney Village will also remain open until further notice, except for the Buffalo Bill Wild West Show.

Recently, a Disneyland Paris Cast Member reportedly tested positive for coronavirus. Now, all of the Disney Parks will be closed due to the pandemic as of March 15. This follows the closures of Shanghai Disneyland, Hong Kong Disneyland, the Tokyo Disney Resort, and the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim.
This marks only the third time Disneyland Paris will have closed since its opening in 1992. Disneyland Paris and Walt Disney Studios Park was closed from November 14th-17th, 2015, in observance of France’s national days of mourning following the tragic Paris attacks. Disneyland Paris also closed on December 27th, 1999, after a large wind storm.

I assume refunds will be issued! But if Parks are closed why are restaurants and hotels ok?
We had a package booked with Disneyland Paris March 16 – 19. So far no communication from Disney. Nothing!
Thank you for all of your up to date news, i am a Disneyland Paris fan (I’m living close to the park) and it’s actually the third time they’re closing. The first was December 27th, 1999 after a huge wind storm. There were a lot of damaged especially in the David Crockett ranch resort.
But again thank you I don’t comment much because I have never been to WDW (planning to come soon though) and your blog and videos on YouTube always get me so excited !
