It’s been expected that Tomorrowland Speedway will close due to construction for TRON, but the Peter Pan’s Flight refurbishment was not previously announced. Here’s the details:
Peter Pan’s Flight in the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World will close from January 7 to February 1, 2019. It is currently scheduled to reopen on February 2, 2019.
Tomorrowland Speedway will be closed for an extended time of at least several months beginning January 2, 2019. This will allow the construction for Tron to extend over the railway. Disney has announced that the Walt Disney World Railroad will close in December for a very long time, but that date has not yet been set.
Each listing has been updated in Character Locator to assist you with planning.
Kenny, Peter Pan is listed as closed on some, but not all, of the After Hours dates that occur during the refurb period. Do you think this is an error or typo? It is listed as closed again on the EMM that occurs the very next morning.
Thanks!
Probably another Disney error. The ride will be closed all those days.
At the risk of being slammed, I would be thrilled to see the Tomorrowland Speedway not reopen. Time for a ride that actually fits the theme…and doesn’t make you desperate for fresh air when the fumes hit you on the TTA.
This!
I thought the speedway was closing for good bc of Tron?
Nope
Explains why the ride is not available during the Early Morning Magic ticketed event
Kenny, is Disney pretty accurate when they say what days they will reopen? Like the Feb 2nd date?
I’d like to say yes, but things can change and get extended. Riverboat was supposed to be down a few months and it has become almost a year. We just wait and see
I am working on Peter Pan Refurb. We are working very hard on 3 shifts to open on time, Feb 2. The ride track is being replaced and the sets and characters are getting cleaned and repainted.
The train was under refurbishment the last time we went! Oh well! Hopefully nothing big will be shut down in May!
Where can I find a list of refurbishment on the app?
Closure dates are on the name of the attraction
Thanks!
Do you think the ride line up for Early Morning Magic will revert back to the previous line up after Peter Pan re-opens in February?
It could. We’ll wait and see
I read that the MK railroad is also closing for Tron. Everything I’ve read says in December 2018, but no specific date. Do you know when exactly it will be down? We’re there the first week in December. Thanks!
I said that in this very post :)
Boo! My kids were really looking forward to Peter Pan! We fly back home on Feb. 2.
Grab some pixie dust. You’ll fly back OK. Might have to go via London though with a change at Big Ben!
