Summary

Disneyland Park

At Disneyland Park, several attractions and experiences are currently closed for refurbishment. Pirate’s Lair on Tom Sawyer Island is only closed for a few days. Main Street Cinema is also only closed for about 2 weeks. Dumbo the Flying Elephant will close tomorrow for a 2 day refurbishment. Storybook Land Canal Boats, Casey Jr. Circus Train and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad do not have a reopening date listed on the calendar at this time.

Upcoming refurbishments at Disneyland Park currently only includes the Sailing Ship Columbia starting September 22, 2025 through September 25, 2025.

Disney California Adventure Park

At Disney California Adventure Park, Radiator Springs Racers is closed for a 6 week refurbishment and is scheduled to reopen on September 26, 2025. Upcoming refurbishments include Goofy’s Sky School from September 28, 2025 – October 4, 2025 and Mickey’s PhilharMagic closing on October 6, 2025 for an undetermined amount of time.

The Hyperion Theater is not undergoing a refurbishment but has been closed since August 2023. The queue area is used for special events and as an expanded guest dining area. At this time, no announcements have been made for the unused Hyperion Theater or its large queue area. However, the queue area is currently being used during Oogie Boogie Bash events for the Ernesto de la Cruz treat trail.

New Attractions Coming

The construction of the Avengers Campus expansion has been changing rapidly with steel beam walls up for one of the new attractions. The walk-way between Avenger’s Campus and Cars Land has been closed for several months while new restrooms are constructed behind the Ancient Sanctum. The walk-way will most likely be closed throughout the expansion of the campus which currently does not have a scheduled completion date.

Avenger’s Campus will double in size with two new attractions when the expansion is complete. At this time, a completion date for the Campus expansion has not been announced.

Avengers Campus Expansion at Disney California Adventure Park

Construction is scheduled to begin on an all-new Coco attraction this fall. Since the attraction is going to be built behind Pixar Pier in areas that are predominantly backstage, there shouldn’t be a lot of closures involved with the attractions construction until close to the opening. I suspect some part of Paradise Gardens Park will be affected by the new attraction but hopefully not until the Coco attraction is within a few months of its grand opening.

And lastly, Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue! will be permanently closing early 2026 so construction can begin on the new Avatar experience coming to Disney California Adventure Park. An official closing date has not been announced at this time.

Refurbishments

To maintain the look, cleanliness, safety and equipment, the Disneyland Resort regularly closes attractions to refurbish them for future guest enjoyment. Also, some attractions may close to be rethemed with a new and exciting story.
