It may only be August, but we’re getting excited for the holiday season!
We’ve already heard some announcements about what we can expect at Disneyland Resort for the holiday season, but we can’t wait to experience everything ourselves. One of the highlights of the year is holiday ride overlays, and now we’ve got some important information about what’s coming soon!
The Disneyland Resort refurbishment calendar has been updated to note that “it’s a small world” will close for refurbishment starting on September 16th. This is a common occurrence, as crews need time to transform the ride into “it’s a small world” Holiday for the Christmas season.
The holiday overlay for the ride is set to open on November 15th. During the two-month closure, crews will work on installing the holiday show elements while also updating lighting and doing general maintenance, according to theme park reporter Scott Gustin.
But that’s not all! Also beginning September 16th, Jungle Cruise will close for refurbishment in Adventureland. Disney hasn’t shared details on that particular ride closure, so we’ll have to wait and find out if anything is changing.
In Disney World, Jungle Cruise gets a holiday overlay called Jingle Cruise. Jingle Cruise hasn’t been offered at Disneyland Park for a while, but with a closure right before the holidays, could this be a sign we see it again in 2024? We’ll have to wait and see.
If you’re taking a trip to Disneyland soon, keep in mind that the refurbishment and closure list is a little bit longer than usual right now. Several offerings in Critter Country are closed as that land gets a transformation, as well as the Disneyland Monorail and Disneyland Railroad. Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln and the Disney Gallery are also under refurbishment, and Space Mountain is getting some updates too.
It’s important to check the refurbishment calendar before any Disney trip so that you can set your expectations going in. We’ll make sure to keep you updated with all the details about rides closing soon, so stay tuned to DFB!
