More construction walls have gone up in the land formerly known as Woody Woodpecker’s KidZone at Universal Studios Florida, this time at the exit of E.T. Adventure.
There was previously a small forest of trees outside E.T. Adventure and E.T.’s Toy Closet, but most of the trees have been removed and blue walls surround the area.
There are a handful of trees visible above the construction walls. These are actually in a separate planter from the main group of trees that were removed.
A few days ago, we noticed that small planters and seating were removed nearby, opening up the walkway.
Woody Woodpecker’s KidZone as we know it ended operations on January 15, permanently closing Fievel’s Playland, the Curious George Goes to Town play area, DreamWorks Destination, and Woody Woodpecker’s Nuthouse Coaster. Construction walls were swiftly propped up, and while Universal has yet to make any official, concrete announcements, the inclusion of several DreamWorks Animation characters on the walls appears to suggest this revamped area focused on young children will emphasize DreamWorks stories and films.
E.T. Adventure. E.T.’s Toy Closet, SpongeBob StorePants, and Animal Actors – On Location! all remain open.
A single rolling planter sits in front of these blue construction walls.
When exiting E.T. Adventure, guests walk between the remaining trees and another construction wall into E.T.’s Toy Closet.
These trees are in their own planter outside of the construction walls.
For reference, here is a look at the same area from when KidZone first closed:
The trees were clustered between E.T.’s Toy Closet and the KidZone restrooms.
What do you think of the deforestation outside E.T. Adventure? Let us know in the comments.
The “E.T.” 30th anniversary posters in the E.T. Adventure queue were finally replaced recently.

Operating hours for TRON Lightcycle / Run at Magic Kingdom have been reduced today during the ride’s soft opening period.
TRON Lightcycle / Run has been closing at 8:00 p.m. daily during its soft opening for the past week and a half. Today, March 28, it will close at 6:30 p.m. Hours may continue to change through April 2, the end of the soft opening. Individual Lightning Lane and the virtual queue have been filling up quickly during the soft opening.
TRON Lightcycle / Run will have its official grand opening period on April 4 (404, get it?), at which point the ride should operate from park open to park close—unexpected downtime aside.
TRON Lightcycle / Run is located right behind Space Mountain in Tomorrowland. It’s outside the park’s berm, and is housed in a sweeping white canopy, which helps hide a boxy show building. A walkway between Tomorrowland and Storybook Circus is also available.
Guests enter by walking under the canopy, known as the Upload Conduit. Upon uploading to The Grid, guests will join Team Blue in a race to cross through eight energy gates before the opposing Team Orange.
As you approach the entrance, there are two TRON ride vehicles to the left. They serve two purposes – so you can try them out and know what to expect when you get inside, and they provide a nice photo op.
We previously reported that some individuals have reported issues with being able to fit into the ride vehicles, so this is a great place to try them out and make sure.
There are double-sided lockers before the load area so guests can safely stow their personal belongings. Lockers are unlocked with MagicBands or plastic ticket cards; MagicMobile tickets on smartphones do not work, and guests without physical ticket media must request a white RFID card from Cast Members.
For the past few weeks, Disney has been conducting previews of TRON Lightcycle / Run, with Cast Members and Annual Passholders getting the first chance to experience the attraction. We were fortunate enough to experience this highly anticipated attraction during the Cast Member previews.
You can check out a full look inside TRON Lightcycle / Run in our ride POV below, and read our review of the attraction here.
