food IS a theme park
It’s not uncommon to see Disney World rides close every now and then for refurbishment.
Space Mountain Closed
Sometimes the closures are short, only a week or so, and other times they need MAJOR work and are closed for months at a time (we’re looking at you Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster). If you’re heading into Magic Kingdom this upcoming week, you need to know about this ride closure!
We just saw two Disney World rides shut down for lengthy refurbishments, with both Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Kali River Rapids in Disney’s Animal Kingdom closing on January 8th. But now, two MORE Disney World closures are starting this week!
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Let’s check out all the temporary closures and refurbishments that will affect Disney World from January 14th through the 20th.
The start of the 2024 year is bringing about lots of CHANGES to Disney World and it seems that rides are no exception.
Tree of Life
We already knew that Rock ‘n’ Rollercoaster is getting ready to close for a longer refurbishment expected to last through Summer, as well as a few other rides. Now, we’ve got another ride to talk about that will also be ready for a refurbishment over the next few days. [Read more…]
Two Disney World rides will close THIS WEEK for LONG refurbishments! Disney occasionally has to shut down rides and attractions in order to update them, and although sometimes those closures only last a few days, this time two rides will be closed for multiple months.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Let’s check out all the temporary closures and refurbishments that will affect Disney World from January 7th through the 13th.
We know it’s inconvenient if you’ve booked a Disney World vacation way ahead of time and then you get there to find out your favorite ride is closed.
Animal Kingdom
Sometimes, we do get SOME notice about ride closures in advance, although some rides close temporarily due to technical issues. Refurbishment schedules are also something to consider, and some rides end up having lengthy refurbishments (aka maintenance, touching up, etc.) that could last months. Well, we’ve got an update on one such refurbishment.
Two Disney World rides will be temporarily CLOSED soon, so if you want to get one more ride in, you’ll need to get to the theme parks this week!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Disney occasionally shuts down rides and attractions in order to refresh and update them, and soon it will be time for two popular attractions to get their annual refurbishment.Â

Disney has to close restaurants, attractions, snack stands, and other locations occasionally in order to complete refurbishments and update the spaces.

Whatever the resason, this EPCOT snack stand is closed with no reopening date in sight!
Watch out! At least eight attractions and restaurants are going to be CLOSED in Disney World next week.
Cinderella Castle
Some of these closures have been affecting the parks and hotels for a LONG time (we’re talking multiple years), and others are much more recent. Let’s check out all of the temporary closures in Disney World from December 3rd through the 9th so that you’re prepared before your next trip.
