One of our favorite things to do in Orlando is take a trip over to Volcano Bay. This Universal water park is incredible and truly one of the best we have ever visited.
The theming, rides, and food are all fantastic. Right now, it’s going through a refurbishment to make it even better, and we have some new information and construction updates!
Later this year and into 2027, Volcano Bay will be closed for an extensive, full-park refurbishment. Starting on October 26th, 2026, through March 24th, 2027, the park will be closed. This five-month closure will include a lot of maintenance and infrastructure updates.
However, the park is already getting a head start on the construction as they put in some brand new cabanas. We are so excited for these cabanas to be open, and thanks to bioreconstruct on X, we’ve gotten a great aerial view of all the cabana construction.
These two-story cabanas are being built behind the lazy river. They are on the very edge of the park; however, we know that the construction will include putting in a tall wall of bamboo to create privacy. The construction appears to be coming together very well.
It looks as though the structures are almost complete, and the roof is in the process of being put in. We are so excited to see what these cool cabanas look like when they open!
We will continue to keep you posted on all Volcano Bay construction news, so stay tuned with Disney Food Blog so you never miss anything!
