Summary

Meet Tinker Bell in Pixie Hollow has been closed for refurbishment since September 16, 2024 and the reopening date has been pushed out further again on the refurbishment calendar. Now the meet and greet area is scheduled to reopen on January 4, 2025. I’m not sure what they are doing that is taking so long but I sure do hope that this very long closure means something great is happening behind those refurbishment walls.

Even though a closing date has not been announced yet for the Red Car Trolley at Disney California Adventure Park, I expect for the attraction to close soon after the new year. As soon as a closure is announced, I’ll be sure to let you know.

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.

Check back every week for an updated list of closures at the Disneyland Resort.
