Disney’s Imagineers and construction team have been pretty busy lately! There’s been some ride testing, a Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind update, and some major progress on the Connections Cafe project. While construction is great for new projects, it can be a nuisance, too! Luckily, our weekly refurbishment update fills you in on all the current refurbishments in Disney World so you know exactly what to expect.

Let’s take a look at everything that will be closed in Disney World from March 28th to April 3rd, 2022.
Magic Kingdom Refurbishments
Walt Disney World Railroad
The Walt Disney World Railroad is a classic Disney attraction that takes guests all around the Magic Kingdom. Unfortunately, the train is currently unavailable. In fact, the attraction has been closed for a while, and it will remain closed while Disney works on its new TRON roller coaster. Currently, TRON construction is blocking a portion of the train tracks, so the train is closed for now.

We’re still waiting on an official opening date for TRON: Lightcycle Run, but we’ll continue to look for updates. The good news is that we recently noticed ride testing on both TRON: Lightcycle Run and the Walt Disney World Railroad!

Disney’s Animal Kingdom Refurbishments
Expedition Everest
Expedition Everest — Legend of the Forbidden Mountain at Disney’s Animal Kingdom is also unavailable for now. This thrilling attraction is in the middle of a long-term refurbishment, and it’s been closed since early January. Disney previously stated that the refurbishment is expected to take about 3 months.

EPCOT Refurbishments
Souk-Al-Magreb
The Morocco pavilion, located in the EPCOT World Showcase, has some incredible architecture! The pavilion also features a small gift shop called Souk-Al-Magreb, though currently, the shop is closed with no official reopening date.

The store was originally set to open back in February of 2022, but Disney extended the closure indefinitely. While Disney has not shared any details on when this store will reopen, we did notice that operating hours are listed starting on April 24th, 2022. We’ll keep our eyes out for more information!
Disney World Water Park Refurbishments
Blizzard Beach Waterpark
Water parks are the perfect place to escape the heat while still experiencing the Disney magic! Unfortunately, Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park is still closed for refurbishments.

Disney’s other water park, Typhoon Lagoon, is still open, though! Starting this summer, guests will even be able to visit the park for a special After Hours event! Disney has not announced a reopening date for Blizzard Beach yet, but we’ll look out for an update.

Disney Resorts
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
Disney is in the middle of a pretty big construction project at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Imagineers are working on some new DVC Resort-Studio rooms in the Big Pine Key building.
