We’re here with the latest Disney World update!
You never know what’s gonna happen while you’re at Disney World, but we’ve got the inside scoop on all the latest Disney World news, and this one is going to affect resort guests. While Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort just reopened for the first time in 2 years, another resort is experiencing an outage that could affect your stay!
Disney’s Riviera Resort is going to have a scheduled power outage tonight, March 31st into April 1st. The power will be out while work is done at night from 12:30AM on March 31st until 2:30AM on April 1st.
If guests have medical equipment that requires power throughout the night, they can use the in-room telephone for help, all you have to do is press “0.”
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen a power outage at Disney World, and we appreciate that this one was scheduled as opposed to a random middle-of-the-day outage. We saw a random outage in the Magic Kingdom a few months ago, and while we have all kinds of tips for dealing with Disney World disasters, you still never know what’s gonna happen!
These things happen often as Disney World does routine maintenance and things like that. But we always love to give you, our readers, a heads up when we can so you are prepared! The power should be up before the sun is out at the Riviera, so this shouldn’t be a long-term issue at the hotel. We’re always staying up to date on all the latest in all things Disney, so stay tuned to DFB for more!

I guess it’s too late to comment, but it looks like it was 12:30 – 2:30 AM on 4/1 – so only 2 hours, not 26 hours.
What a stupid thing to do! What if there was a medical emergency? How would the paramedics get to someone who needs help? What if there was a fire? How could people safely get down the stairs? Smart idea to do this during the night? NOOOOOOO!!!!! Wouldn’t there be less people in the hotel during the day? Wouldn’t they be in the parks? Daytime brings dayLIGHT through the windows… unless for an equally stupid reason , all the windows are boarded or taped up so that no one can see outside? Why would the fire department agree to this? Oh wait, Disney owns the Reedy Creek Fire Department!
