Attraction Closures

You have the best touring plans in place, and you are at the park for a rope drop only to discover that your top attractions are closed. Disney World rides close all the time. Severe weather, mechanical or technical malfunctions, and Guests doing the wrong thing can all shut an attraction down.

Oftentimes, the ride reopens when the weather passes or the issue gets fixed. However, sometimes it can also lead to a multi-day closure. Ride closures not only affect that attraction but create a ripple effect as well. Higher wait times can be seen at other park attractions as guests scramble to revamp their touring plans.

Just yesterday and the day before, we saw various attraction closures due to severe weather in the area.

Several Attractions Down

At Magic Kingdom today, several major attractions are down this afternoon. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Haunted Mansion, Liberty Square Riverboat and Pirates of the Caribbean are all temporarily closed at the time of writing.

Due to these closures, wait times for other attractions are higher right now, so be sure to pack your patience or find alternative options for your plans.

We do not know why so many attractions are down at the same time. It is possible that it might be a power issue due to the fact that they are all close to each other.

Hopefully, this is a minor issue and all of these attractions will be back up and running later today. Be sure to keep checking My Disney Experience for when any of these attractions reopen.

Multiple attractions are closed this afternoon at Magic Kingdom.
