In 2020, Disney announced plans for closing Splash Mountain to make way for a new attraction themed after Princess and the Frog. For some time the closure was a vague, far-off date, but in December of 2022 Disney gave us an official closing date for the ride.
Tomorrow is the last day for guests to ride Splash Mountain in Magic Kingdom. On January 23rd, the ride will be closed permanently to prepare for the retheming as Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.
