DinoLand at Disney's Animal Kingdom is nearing extinction! An entire new land is on the way. It is set to be themed around Tropical Americas!

Large cranes are now present at DinoLand, USA, and the Encanto attraction is taking a big step forward to bring new dialogue to this new land.

This area is looking much different these days, with several attractions already closed, including The Boneyard.

Disney shared that the last day for guests to enjoy DINOSAUR at Disney's Animal Kingdom will be on February 1, 2026. Beginning February 2, 2026, the last parts of DinoLand USA will officially close, including the DINOSAUR attraction and Restaurantosaurs dining location.

This HUGE closure will, in effect, send ripples throughout the rest of Disney's Animal Kingdom. With Restaurantosaurus closing, this will affect the current menu offered at the Harambe Market. See full details of these changes HERE.

In anticipation of the upcoming extinction of DinoLand, Disney has moved up one seasonal refurbishment. Kali River Rapids is now closed for its seasonal refurbishment, versus its usual closure in January. Find out when this attraction will reopen HERE.
