Liberty Square Riverboat EVACUATED in Magic Kingdom

Sometimes, not-so-magical things happen in Disney World.

Weather can cause rides to close temporarily, technical issues can arise on attractions, and even shows occasionally get changed for safety reasons. Sometimes rides also go down while people are on them, which is exactly what happened today in Magic Kingdom

When a ride goes down with people on it, Disney Cast Members will help evacuate riders from that attraction. This happened today on Liberty Square Riverboat. The boat was, apparently, having issues that meant they had to get visitors off of it, and that’s exactly what they did. Visitors were being transferred to a Tom Sawyer Island raft.

So what should you do if you’re on a ride in Disney World and it’s being evacuated? Well, the first thing you should do is pay attention to the Cast Members. They will be there to direct you on what to do and where to go. Listen to the Cast Members carefully and follow their directions. You’ll also need to be patient: sometimes it takes a while to get everyone off a ride.

If you’re looking to get back on that ride later, you’ll need to keep an eye on the My Disney Experience app to see when it reopens.

Just remember that these things sometimes happen, and although it might feel a little frustrating, don’t forget where you are — you’re in Disney World! Be patient and follow Cast Member instructions. Stay tuned to DFB for more Disney World updates.
