2025 is bringing loads of changes to Disney World, and we’re preparing ourselves for each and every one.

Well, we’re preparing as best we can. We’re taking it one day at a time and making sure that YOU know what you need to in order to make your upcoming vacations the best they can be! If you’re heading to the parks in February, you need to know that there are MULTIPLE rides that will be closed the entire month!
Magic Kingdom
Three attractions will be closed for the entirety of February. The first of which is Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, which closes on January 6th and will remain closed for at least a year. We don’t have a reopening date, and likely won’t have one for a while, but we’ll keep you updated!

Astro Orbiter also closes on January 13th and won’t be reopening for a few months. Again, there’s no reopening date, but we do foresee this one opening earlier than Big Thunder Mountain Railroad!

Finally, Hall of Presidents closes on January 20th and will be reopening in a few months. This closure happens every 4 years after U.S. elections take place, and the attraction always reopens to properly reflect the new (or returning) President.
EPCOT
Two attractions will be closed in EPCOT in February — the first is Test Track, which closed in 2023 to make way for the new version of the ride that will be debuting this summer!

Gran Fiesta Tour will also be closed for the entire month of February for refurbishment. The closure begins on January 6th and continues through March 15th, when the ride will reopen.

That reopening timeline could change at any time though, so we’ll keep our eyes peeled!
Animal Kingdom
Over in Animal Kingdom, Kali River Rapids will be closed for its annual refurbishment during the winter months from January 6th through March 2025. We don’t have an exact reopening date yet, but we’ll let you know when we do!

We’ll be sure to keep you updated on all the latest Disney World news, so stay tuned to AllEars!
