Test Track
The ride closed on June 17th, 2024, for a massive overhaul. Up to this point, we only know a few details about what to expect when the ride reopens on July 22nd, 2025, and we’ve been waiting for more information. Well, the time has finally come!
Are you ready for some new rides? Well, Disney World is certainly working on giving those to you. We’ve got new rides coming to the new land in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Pueblo Esperanza.

In EPCOT, Test Track is getting a complete overhaul, which means it will be technically like a new ride when it reopens on July 22nd. Disney has announced specific groups will be able to preview the attraction before it opens to the public.
A popular ride is about to reopen in EPCOT!
EPCOT
EPCOT underwent some massive changes in 2024 with the opening of CommuniCore Hall and CommuniCore Plaza. However, the changes didn’t stop there, as Disney World announced the reimagining of the super-popular Test Track ride and promptly closed it for a lengthy refurbishment back in June while teasing that the attraction would reopen sometime in 2025. Well, we’re happy to bring some good news — we finally have a reopening date!
An underrated Disney World attraction is about to be done with its refurbishment! While this under-the-radar attraction never fully closed, we are excited that its refurbishment is about done. Winter Summerland Miniature Golf has been undergoing a refurbishment since April 28th, and it is about to be completed.
Winter Summerland Mini Golf
During the refurbishment, only one course was available at a time, so you couldn’t choose between the Summer or Winter course; you simply had to play the course that was open. But pretty soon, we will once again have choices when it comes to playing golf at Winter Summerland!

When you go to Disney World daily like we do, you get stuck on quite a few rides over time.
Stormtroopers in Rise of the Resistance
Disney rides malfunction from time to time — sometimes due to guest behaviors (like hats flying off or people reaching out of ride vehicles) and sometimes due to technical difficulties. Occasionally, we’ll be onboard a ride when it stops and we get the chance to see “behind the curtain.” So today, we’re sharing some of the most interesting ride closure photos we have!
