Headed to Disney World in November? You’re going to want to pay close attention because we’re telling you all of the rides that will be closed for refurbishment this month, and one of them is extremely popular!
We never want you to be met with any surprises during your trip! From the Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios to Disney’s water parks, five attractions will be closed in November. Let’s take a look at which ones.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
There is only ONE day in November when the log flume in Magic Kingdom will be open: November 1st. Starting November 2nd, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will be closed for refurbishment and is expected to reopen sometime in December. Disney is calling this a “routine refurbishment,” so there shouldn’t be any major updates added to the attraction.
5 Changes Coming to Magic Kingdom Next Month
Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress
Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress in the Magic Kingdom has been closed for refurbishment since the beginning of July, and it will continue to be closed through 2027. This show is getting an update with new scenes from the 1960s, 1980s, the new millennium, and a possible future. The pre-show of this attraction will include a Walt Disney Audio Animatronic. At this year’s D23 Expo, Disney announced that Bryan Cranston and Jamie Lee Curtis will be voicing the roles of Father and Mother, respectively. The original voice of Patricia, Debi Derryberry, will be returning, but in a different role — Grandmother. The attraction is slated to open in late spring 2027.

Vacation Fun – An Original Animated Short with Mickey & Minnie
After only being open for a month following the Annual Passholder Magnet distribution, the short in the Mickey Shorts Theater will close yet again. The attraction is slated to close on October 28th and has plans to reopen later this year. This is the third time the attraction will be closed just THIS YEAR — it was closed from April 29th through May 5th for a Star Wars May the Fourth Merchandise location, and again from August 9th through September 27th for the Annual Passholder Magnet distribution.

Slush Gusher
One of Blizzard Beach Water Park’s slides will be closed for refurbishment in November. This is a 90-foot, high-speed waterslide in the shadow of Summit Plummet. The two rolling hills are bound to give you an invigorating lift on the way down! While this slide is closed, other attractions around Blizzard Beach will remain operational.

Typhoon Lagoon Water Park
Yes, that’s right — a WHOLE water park will be closed next month. Throughout November and the following months, Typhoon Lagoon Water Park will be closed for refurbishment. Disney has yet to announce a reopening date for the park, but they encourage guests to visit their other water park, Blizzard Beach, during this time.
