Watch out! Some temporary ride and attraction closures might affect your upcoming Disney World trip.
Check out this list of all the pre-scheduled closures that will affect the Disney World parks and hotels from October 15th through the 21st.
Magic Kingdom Closures
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
Splash Mountain closed on January 23rd, and it’ll remain closed until late 2024.
Disney is re-theming the ride to give it a Princess and the Frog theme. When it reopens, it’ll be called Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.
On a recent trip, we spotted the new “Tiana’s Foods” water tower up in front of the ride. We’ll keep an eye out for more updates.

Barrel Bridge at Tom Sawyer Island
Over on Tom Sawyer Island, the barrel bridge is currently closed. In fact, it’s missing completely!
A Cast Member told us that the bridge had been removed for refurbishments, and they’re not sure when it might be back.

Always missing the Little Voyage of the Mermaid every time we visit Hollywood Studios….by the time they get this thing up running…the Mermaid will certainly be either collecting Social Security…or wind up as bait in the Living Seas
