Hollywood Studios has so many great rides and attractions between its lands. There are so many must-dos, like Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets, Rise of the Resistance, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run… and that’s not even half of them!
Hollywood Studios
But when we’ve gone to Hollywood Studios lately, one of our favorites has always been closed. An ultra-popular roller coaster on our must-do list has been closed for a few days, and Disney hasn’t said anything about it!
Slinky Dog Dash has been closed all day, every day since Monday, August 31st. On Sunday, August 30th, its last day of operation, the ride was temporarily closed at 9 AM and then closed again from 7 PM until the park’s close at 9 PM. Right now, the ride has yet again been temporarily closed since Hollywood Studios opened. So Slinky Dog is having some issues!
Slinky Dog Dash at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
It’s currently unclear why Slinky Dog Dash is closing so frequently. The Disney World website and My Disney Experience app both show the ride operating from 8:30 AM to 9 PM as usual, and a refurbishment or permanent closure notice isn’t posted. Slinky is just going through a rough patch right now!

Everyone’s fave ride! Down for a week with no statement from Disney. Not good! Disney does this a lot, keeping guests in the dark. They should be more transparent. Say something! At full price with all the construction, rides changed, attractions and restaurants gone and now another ride not working, Disney needs to do better!!! Frankly, with a few exceptions from then and now….such as Slinky Dog….I miss the original Michael Eisner MGM- Hollywood Studios….
