food IS a theme park
Heading to Disney World soon? We’ve got a bit of a warning for you!
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster
It’s refurb season around the parks, and that means some attractions might be closed during your visit. We already knew about one popular ride closure, but it turns out it might not be happening as soon as we originally thought!
There’s one word that many Disney fans dread — refurbishment.
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster
Many rides go under refurbishment throughout the year so that Disney can make sure that everything is in pristine condition for when guests ride. whether the closure is only for a few days or for a few months. Most of the time, ride refurbishments are quite short. But sometimes, they are quite lengthy, like the one happening with Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
There are some things that Disney fans can’t agree on (shocking — we know!).
Sleeping Beauty Castle
Who is the best princess? Mickey pretzel or Mickey Premium Bar? And the ultimate showdown — Disney World or Disneyland? For folks heading to Disneyland soon, there’s going to be one less attraction for you to ride, at least temporarily, because Indiana Jones Adventure is closing for refurbishment!
You never know what’s gonna happen at Disney World, and we’ve come to expect the unexpected!
Tower of Terror
From ride closures, to crowds, to wait times, to weather, you should be prepared for whatever might come your way in Disney World! Sometimes, your favorite ride closes unexpectedly, and you can’t do anything about it. This Hollywood Studios ride has seen a lot of closures lately, and we got some more details!
Routine maintenance and closures are a part of life — especially in Disney World!
Expedition Everest is closed right now.
While we’re quite sad to see some of our favorite rides close, we’re super excited when they finally come back! Rides close all the time so that Disney can make sure they’re in the best possible shape for guests. A popular ride in Disney’s Animal Kingdom shut down in January, and we saw a couple of test rides with no guests back in February, but it’s FINALLY back!
Refurbishment is a regular part of life in the Disney Parks. Every so often, Disney attractions close for routine maintenance needs, and Imagineers give our favorite rides a little TLC. Everyone needs a break once in a while — even Disney attractions!
Sleeping Beauty Castle
There are several fan-favorite Disneyland rides on the refurbishment calendar for 2022, and today one of these iconic rides is closed. Find out when you can ride it again here!
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is one of those classic, must-do rides in Magic Kingdom.
Know what your must-dos are before you arrive.
In Disney World, it’s common for rides to close temporarily to undergo routine maintenance, and Big Thunder Mountain is no exception. In 2022, the ride will close for a short refurbishment, so take a look at what we’ve learned here.
If you want to talk about absolutely iconic Disney rides, you’re probably going to talk about Disneyland.
Disneyland
Disneyland Park has some totally historic rides, many of which Walt Disney had a hand in. From Haunted Mansion to the Jungle Cruise, it’s hard not to love classic attractions. It’s not uncommon to see classic rides get a refurbishment, like the newly renamed Snow White’s Enchanted Wish, and now another Disneyland ride is getting some TLC!
The Rivers of America and the surrounding area has been under a lengthy refurbishment!
Liberty Square Riverboat at Magic Kingdom
The river was completely drained and construction work was happening on the guide rails for the Liberty Square Riverboat. We also saw work being done on Tom Sawyer Island and the dry riverbed. The river has recently been refilled and we were expecting the attractions to reopen on March 1st, 2021. It seems Disney is a little ahead of schedule and they may open a little early!
