As you probably know, Disney World food is very important to us.

We keep track of attraction closures happening all around Disney World, but when we hear about a restaurant getting a refurbishment, our ears quickly perk up. That’s why this food court news was important to us! Some of our favorite snacks can be found at two Disney World hotel food courts that are getting some work done. Luckily, one will be back to full capacity this week while another will begin some changes.

World Premiere Food Court — Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort

The World Premiere Food Court at Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort has been undergoing refurbishment throughout July.

This food court closed for refurbishment on July 1st, but it will reopen this week on July 31st. While it has been getting a face-lift, guests have been able to mobile order from a limited menu on the Disney World app.

Everything POP Shopping & Dining — Disney’s Pop Century Resort

Just as World Premiere Food Court reopens, Everything Pop will be beginning its own bit of refurbishment.

Starting July 29th, Everything Pop will be getting some work done. The refurbishment is set to last until September 29th. However, while the work is being done, guests can still use the Disney World app to mobile order food. You may need to use alternate entrances to access the food court and seating may be limited.

Luckily, anyone staying at these hotels will continue to be able to get food and drinks during these refurbishments! But what else will be closed during your trip to Disney World this week? Keep reading to find out!

Magic Kingdom

Peter Pan’s Flight

One of Magic Kingdom’s most popular rides closed for refurbishment on July 8th!

Peter Pan’s Flight will be closed until August 21st. While Disney hasn’t commented on the closure, a permit filed for the ride indicates some general construction. We’ll be keeping our eyes open for any more information concerning any changes coming to this popular ride!

Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade

We had to say goodbye to an opening day attraction on June 23rd.

The Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade was around for generations and provided simple fun to all who played. Now, the attraction has closed to make room for a new Disney Vacation Club lounge. This lounge will be the third in Disney World, joining one in EPCOT and one at Disney’s Contemporary Resort. Disney has not yet announced when the new lounge will open.

Tomorrowland Terrace

Tomorrowland Terrace is a quick-service restaurant that has been closed since the 2020 pandemic-related closures, but even before that, this spot was only occasionally open.

Once in a while, you’ll see the dining room open as a rest area (and it’s still being used for the Magic Kingdom Fireworks Dessert Parties), but it’s usually all roped off and empty.

Disney hasn’t announced when this spot could finally reopen, but we’ll be watching for updates. If you’re looking for a nice spot to hang out in Disney World and sit down for a rest, this could be it!

EPCOT

Test Track

Test Track closed on June 17th, and Disney is giving this ride a BIG makeover! 

Disney has shared that the new version of Test Track will take inspiration from the old ride, World of Motion, that was originally there when the park opened in 1982. Other than that, Disney hasn’t shared many other details about the project. We don’t even have a reopening date yet, but we’ll be watching for more updates.

Restaurant Marrakesh

Restaurant Marrakesh is currently closed as a dining location in the Morocco pavilion of EPCOT’s World Showcase, and there’s no word yet on when the restaurant could fully reopen.

However, it opens from time to time as a KidCot station and a lounge. So if you’re in the Morocco Pavilion, check it out to see if it’s open. We’re watching for updates on when the full restaurant could reopen!

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Voyage of the Little Mermaid

Voyage of the Little Mermaid is currently closed in Disney World. We recently spotted some construction walls up at the show!

Disney is going to introduce a new, updated show in this spot, though it will still be themed to the animated movie The Little Mermaid! The new show will be called “The Little Mermaid — A Musical Adventure” and is coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Fall 2024.

It will be a “fully reimagined theatrical production inspired by the Walt Disney Animation Studios classic.”

Blizzard Beach closed for refurbishment on March 17th.

While Blizzard Beach is closed, Typhoon Lagoon is currently open. The two water parks often rotate off and on for being open. Disney has not announced when Blizzard Beach might reopen. We’ll be watching for any updates, though!
