Two Magic Kingdom Attractions Close Early Next Month
Do you enjoy the Disney Parks at night? You will want to check out the surprisingly early closures for these two Magic Kingdom attractions.
Disney Parks at Night
There is nothing quite like nighttime in the Disney Parks. The Parks truly come alive at night with illuminated attractions and magical nighttime entertainment. As Guests prepare touring plans for an upcoming trip, they often consult the crowd calendar on Character Locator and the hours for each park.
Park hours remain somewhat consistent from week to week. Special ticketed events such as Halloween and Christmas parties can cause Magic Kingdom to close earlier on select nights.
When Guests are planning their trips to the Disney Parks, these early Park closings are a big consideration in developing their touring plans.
Journey of The Little Mermaid Closing Early
Disney reserves the right to adjust operating hours as needed. Sometimes this may be due to a ride malfunction or routine maintenance, but at other times this can even be for a private event.
Next week, on Thursday, November 5, 2026, Under the Sea: Journey of The Little Mermaid will close at 7:00 pm. This is unexpected since Magic Kingdom does not close until 10:00 pm.
If you plan to make a Lightning Lane Multi-Pass selection for this attraction, you will want to plan accordingly.
Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor Closing Early
Later in the month, we see another early closing. On Saturday, November 28, 2026, Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor will close early at 6:00 pm, even though Magic Kingdom remains open until 10:00 pm.
Journey of the Little Mermaid and Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor close early in November.
These unexpected early closings may be a bit inconvenient for some guests. Guests are encouraged to utilize the My Disney Experience app for Park hours and showtimes.
