Everything That Will Be Closed in Disney World in February
Are you heading to the magic in February 2026? Here is a rundown of everything that will be closed so you can manage your party's expectations.
Closures for Disney in February 2026
Nobody likes the idea of missing out on a beloved ride or attraction due to a closure. This is. especially true for a once-in-a-lifetime visit!
Fortunately, Walt Disney World keeps fans updated as much as possible when refurbishments are looming. Of course, this is not always possible in the case of unexpected malfunctions and breakdowns.
But, for the most part, we know what to expect. Here is a rundown of what will be closed in each park this month so you can manage expectations and avoid disappointing surprises.
The Magic Kingdom Closures for February
Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin is still closed for refurbishment and will not reopen until later this year. And, you can see some cool updates for the ride right HERE.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad also remains closed. It will not reopen until an undisclosed date in 2026, but the trains were recently being tested, so that is good news!
While it is not closed, you should also know that the Walt Disney World Railroad is running in "Shuttle Mode." It will only travel back and forth between Fantasyland and Main Street U.S.A., and this could be the case for several years.
EPCOT February Closures
EPCOT is experiencing a major closure this month. Frozen Ever After will be closed for a refurbishment for at least part of February.
Frozen Ever After will be closed in February.
When the ride reopens, it will have all-new animatronics, and we can't wait to see them! You can read about the exciting changes HERE.
Disney's Animal Kingdom February Closures
Over in Animal Kingdom, another ride is heading for extinction. DINOSAUR will close forever on February 2, 2026, to make way for a new land themed to Central America. You can read about it HERE.
Restaurantosaurus will also close forever with Dinosaur. However, there is some good news. Harambe Market will reopen on February 5, 2026. It will take over the Restaurantosaurus menu. You can read more about it HERE.
