Going to Disney World Next Week? Here’s a List of Important Closures!

We take a look at all the closures and refurbishments in Disney World so that you can stay ahead while you plan your upcoming Disney trip.

Construction walls in Animal Kingdom

We’re looking at next week now, and there are a couple of closed attractions as well as LOTS of hotel refurbishments going on. Read more to find out if your hotels will be having some construction while you’re there!

Next week, the only park with any scheduled refurbishments is Disney’s Magic Kingdom. Keep in mind that other attractions can still close due to weather and technical difficulties, but these are the only ones we’re planning on so far.

Magic Kingdom

The Walt Disney World Railroad is still closed, including all of the stations around the Magic Kingdom.

Fantasyland Train Station

The railroad’s tracks were interrupted by construction on the TRON: Lightcycle Run ride over in Tomorrowland.

TRON construction

The TRON roller coaster isn’t supposed to open for a while (and the construction looks like there’s still a little way to go), so we’re not expecting to see the WDW Railroad reopen anytime soon.

We’ll keep you updated on both the railroad and TRON opening dates!

It’s coming along!

The Main Street Confectionery is also listed as being closed for all of next week in Disney World.

Right now you can head to the Main Street Cinema to find the Confectionery’s sweets.

This treats stop has been getting updates to the interior, and recently we saw that the construction walls around it came down!

However, it hasn’t been taken off the calendar for refurbishments yet.

We’ve got our fingers crossed that it’ll be back in time for the 50th Anniversary celebrations, beginning October 1st, but Disney hasn’t made any announcements about its return yet.

Disney World Hotels

Coming off our list of closed hotels is Disney’s All-Star Music Resort, which reopened on Thursday, September 16th!

The Calypso Pool at All-Star Music

We’re taking a look around, so you can check out the return of this value resort here.

In addition, the lobby is under construction right now, so guests are being asked to go to the second floor to check-in and find the concierge.

This refurbishment is scheduled to last through late September 2021.

Speaking of lobby updates, several other hotels have their lobbies under construction as well. Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort is having work done on the front desks, but some desks are still available there for check-in. This construction is expected to last through October 2021.
