Disney World Park Closure Is Now Extended

This Walt Disney World Park closure surprised us, but now this park will remain closed even longer. Find out how this may affect your travel plans.

Travel Warnings

Florida weather can put a few wrinkles in even the best-laid travel plans. With a park located in Central Florida, Walt Disney World tries to update guests on weather advisories as quickly as possible. 

There are many things to consider when planning your trip to Walt Disney World, from rainstorms to hurricane planning.

What many do not often consider is cold weather warnings and winter weather advisories.

Disney World Park Closure

Disney reserves the right to change operating hours without notice. This week is a cold one at Walt Disney World.

Earlier, we shared that Typhoon Lagoon would be closed Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday (January 12-14, 2026).

Now this closure is extended even longer. Disney's Typhoon is now closed through Friday, January 16, 2026. At this time, Typhoon Lagoon is set to reopen on Saturday, January 17, 2026.

Disney World Resort Perks

Currently, Blizzard Beach is closed. For 2025 packages, Guests staying at a Disney Resort hotel could enjoy admission to one of the water parks on check-in day!

Typhoon Lagoon will be closed January 12-16, 2026

We had hopes that this would continue into 2026. Thankfully, it was not completely removed, but rather modified to only be offered for guests during the Summer of 2026. Both Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon will be open during this time.
