These attraction and restaurant closures might impact your upcoming Disney World vacation!

Let’s check out all of the temporary closures that will affect the Disney World parks and hotels from December 24th through the 30th.
Magic Kingdom
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 new mural on the wall in the queue area. We’ll keep an eye out for more updates.

Barrel Bridge at Tom Sawyer Island
Over on Tom Sawyer Island, the barrel bridge is currently closed. In fact, it’s missing completely!

A Cast Member told us that the bridge had been removed for refurbishments, and they’re not sure when it might be back. The bridge disappeared several months ago, but we’re still hoping that it might be back before the end of this year! We’ll be sure to let you know about any updates.
Tomorrowland Terrace
Tomorrowland Terrace in Magic Kingdom has only ever been open occasionally, usually during particularly busy seasons. However, it’s been a LONG time since we’ve seen this spot open.

Currently, it’s only used for Magic Kingdom dessert parties.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Voyage of the Little Mermaid
Voyage of the Little Mermaid as we knew it will NOT return to Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

“The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure”, an all-new stage show, will replace the show in the Animation Courtyard theater in Fall 2024.

EPCOT
Restaurant Marrakesh
Restaurant Marrakesh is kind of closed and kind of not.

The restaurant is technically open, but just as a lounge (not as an actual restaurant). We’re still waiting for the full experience to return!
The Land Cart
This snack cart in EPCOT’s The Land pavilion is currently closed and will continue to be closed for this whole week.

Disney’s calendar lists it as being closed through at least mid-January.

1900 Park Fare
1900 Park Fare at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort is a character meal that’s been closed for a couple of years now.

We’re still waiting to hear more about this spot! In the meantime, a new afternoon tea service is going to open in early 2024, when The Cake Bake Shop opens on the Boardwalk.
