The Jungle Cruise is undergoing quite the transformation in both Disney World and Disneyland.

While the Disney World ride has remained open during its re-theming, the Disneyland ride has been closed. Disney had already shared that the Disneyland version would reopen this summer and we knew that the changes at Disney World would take place over the next several months. But, now Disney has shared some BIG updates in terms of when this ride’s transformation on both coasts will be complete!

Today, Disney shared that the Jungle Cruise will reopen in Disneyland Park on July 16th, 2021! When the ride reopens in Disneyland, it will feature an updated experience with new characters and more changes as part of the ride’s transformation.

Disney also shared a look at some progress that’s being made in Disneyland’s version of this ride. Here’s a look at the work going on at Trader Sam’s new scene in the ride.

Looks like Trader Sam has converted the Lost & Found location into something a bit more his style — a gift shop!

Over at Disney World’s Magic Kingdom, the Jungle Cruise has remained open during its transformation and we’ve seen a number of changes already made. Disney has now shared that the Jungle Cruise transformation will be complete in Magic Kingdom this summer!

As part of these overall transformations of the rides, there will be new scenes and a new storyline. But, those corny jokes you know and love will remain!

If you’re looking for a good chuckle, check out the video below with Imagineer Kevin Lively, which features quite a few pun-tactic lines.

We’ll keep an eye out for more updates about the Jungle Cruise transformation and let you know what we find. Stay tuned for more details!
