It’s been a busy year for Disney World so far!
If you haven’t been in recent years, it’s like a new experience. Park passes are no longer required for most ticketholders, park hopping is back to normal, and the Disney Dining Plan is available again. On top of that, we know that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is opening this summer and Country Bear Jamboree is getting an all-new show. So what’s in store for the month of March? It’s time to find out!
If you’re heading to Disney World soon, be sure to check out our list of the 15 ESSENTIALS you’ll forget to pack. You can click the image below to get our list and make sure you don’t forget a thing!
Here’s a peek at what you can look forward to in March at Disney World!
Reservations Open for 1900 Park Fare
Have you heard the news? 1900 Park Fare at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort is finally reopening! The character dining spot will reopen on April 10th, 2024.
However, reservations will open for the restaurant on March 5th. This is a popular restaurant and we highly recommend grabbing reservations if you want to dine here! Typically, dining reservations open 60 days prior, so if you are going to Disney World later this year, be sure to book them then.
The restaurant will look a bit different than before with changes to the menu (don’t worry — the Strawberry Soup is here to stay!) and new characters including Aladdin, Mirabel, and more.

Kali River Rapids Reopens
Kali River Rapids has been closed since January for its annual refurbishment over at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. But the water ride is set to reopen in mid-March! Currently, hours are starting to show up on the Disney World website on March 16th.
During the winter months, many water rides close and undergo a routine refurbishment. It’s usually colder in Florida so not too many guests are looking to ride water-based attractions! Luckily, this will open just in time for spring break crowds and the heat.

Typhoon Lagoon Reopens as Blizzard Beach Closes
For the past few years, Disney World has not had both of its water parks open at the same time. Blizzard Beach has been open since November 6th, 2023 but it will be closed as of March 17th, 2024 for refurbishment.
On that same day, Typhoon Lagoon will reopen to guests! This water park is home to a huge wave pool and several waterslides.

Easter Sunday
On holidays, the Disney parks tend to go all out. Easter Sunday is no exception which lands on March 31st this year! Magic Kingdom typically has an Easter parade down and you can meet and greet with Mr. and Mrs. Easter Bunny. How cute!
If you are someone who still needs to book Park Passes (non-date-based ticketholders and Annual Passholders), grab the Park Passes for Easter Sunday as soon as you can. We’ve still seen busy days sell out on the Park Pass calendar even with many guests not needing them to enter the parks anymore!
