Almost every morning in Disney World, there are a couple of attractions that temporarily close as they experience technical difficulties or other problems. Those rides typically reopen within a few hours (if not sooner). Other times, there are attractions that have to shut down for a few weeks in order for Disney to have time to update and refurbish them. But once in a while, an attraction will close for a LONG refurbishment, generally as BIG changes are made.

Right now, there are not one but TWO long-term closures in Disney World, and both are going to continue for all of this week (June 18th through the 24th).
Magic Kingdom Closures
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
Splash Mountain closed on January 23rd, and it’ll remain closed until late 2024.

Disney is re-theming the ride to give it a Princess and the Frog theme. When it reopens, it’ll be called Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. On a recent trip, we spotted a crane working on the top of this ride. We’ll keep an eye out for more updates.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios Closures
Voyage of the Little Mermaid
This stage show about The Little Mermaid has been closed for a long time in Hollywood Studios.

Disney hasn’t announced when or if the show will reopen.
We found 2024 merchandise HIDING in Hollywood Studios.
Disney Water Park Refurbishments
Disney’s Blizzard Beach
Disney World’s Blizzard Beach Water Park has closed for refurbishments. Disney hasn’t announced how long this closure will last.

Typhoon Lagoon — Disney World’s other water park — is currently open.
