Several construction and refurbishment projects are going on right now around Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
We’ve been keeping an eye on the refurbishment work going on at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, the TRON coaster construction, the refurbishment of the Magic Kingdom entrance sign, and more. About a month ago, we shared that Liberty Square Riverboat and Tom Sawyer Island in Magic Kingdom would be closed for a lengthy refurbishment, and now that refurbishment period has been extended.
Just over a month ago, the Disney refurbishment calendar listed the refurbishment for both Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Square Riverboat through January 2nd. Both attractions also appeared to have “No Times Available” every day from October 5th through the end of the calendar, which was then April 2nd.

Today, however, when we check the Disney refurbishment calendar, the refurbishment for both attractions is now listed through Sunday, February 28th.

It appears, however, that both attractions are still showing “No times available” through May 3rd, 2021 on their individual pages on the Disney World website. We recently saw the refurbishment for the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover in Magic Kingdom extended as well. We’ll keep an eye out for more updates on all of the construction going on around Disney World and let you know what we find.
