See What’s CHANGED at a Popular Magic Kingdom Ride

Every once in a while, Disney likes to give its rides a little enhancing “pizazz.”

Space Mountain

We’ve seen it when 4-D attractions get a little refurb and suddenly the screen is clearer, or when new animatronics get added in to make things fresher. Sometimes Disney will even completely change or update rides to fit more with the times and the current tech. But recently, they added a new little detail in a Magic Kingdom ride that doesn’t change much, but made our wait in line just a tad more interesting!

If you’ve waited in line for Space Mountain at Magic Kingdom, you know that the queue can be pretty, well…BORING. You’re either standing outside in the sun, waiting in one long hallway, or weaving back and forth between metal bars in the dark. Not much to see. However, it recently got a tiny upgrade!

The floor changed!

Disney recently changed out some of the flooring in the Space Mountain queue to match the theme. That is, the flooring is now covered in a galaxy of stars!

Very sparkly!

It’s a pretty noticeable difference because it shines and shimmers, even in the dark. And the blue lighting reflecting off of it makes it even cooler!

It’s not a massive change, but it certainly makes the queue prettier when you’re waiting. Space Mountain tends to be one of the park’s longer wait times, so any little difference helps slightly.

We’ll be on the lookout for any more changes in Disney World, so stay tuned to DFB for the latest! We’re in the parks every day to bring you all the news.
