NEWS: Disney World Hotel Gift Shop To Be UPDATED Soon!

Another construction project is about to begin in Disney World!

Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort

Disney is currently working on several projects throughout the hotels and parks. Some are pretty big endeavors, like turning the Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade in Magic Kingdom into a Disney Vacation Club lounge. Others are a bit smaller and out-of-the-way, as is the case with this new refurbishment project that was just announced for Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort.

According to Disney’s website, the All-Star Sports Resort gift shop, Sport Goofy Gifts and Sundries, will be getting some updates over the next few months. The timeline for this project is July through September 2024.

However, the store will NOT be closing. Disney notes that visitors can still shop in the store, although they might see and/or hear some construction work going on while they’re there.

Sport Goofy Gifts and Sundries has lots of Disney-themed souvenirs, like apparel, accessories, snacks, and other merchandise.

Over at Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort, there’s a pretty big project going on at the World Premiere Food Court. This food court is under construction through July 31st, but you can still order food using the Mobile Order feature on the My Disney Experience app, and seating areas remain open.

Another hotel gift shop that’s currently under refurbishment is M. Mouse Mercantile at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. This shop is closed while it’s being updated, but you can find merchandise at other stores at the Grand Floridian, such as Curiouser Clothiers and Sandy Cove.

A BIG project is underway at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort: Disney is constructing an entire new building as part of this hotel! The new Island Tower will house DVC villas and will also bring new recreation and dining offerings to the hotel. Island Tower is expected to open this coming December.

If you’re a fan of the massive Stormalong Bay pool at Disney’s Beach and Yacht Club Resorts (really it’s more of a small water park than a pool…), you should be aware of an upcoming closure for that amenity. Stormalong Bay will be closed for maintenance from January 2025 through May 2025. During that time, the Tidal, Admiral, and Dunes Cove leisure pools at these hotels will remain open.

Around the same time, the Fantasia Pool at Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort will be closed as well (from January 2025 through April 2025).
