Alright Disney fans, we’ve got some divisive news to report so LISTEN UP!
We’re no strangers to Disney rides and attractions going out of service, being taken out completely, and teasing us with testing rides to be open soon like we’ve recently seen with Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. When news initially broke that Disney would be bringing Soarin’ Over California BACK to Disney World for a limited-time run to celebrate Disney’s 100th anniversary, we never guessed it would have lasted this long. But for the fans of this version of the popular attraction, we’ve got major news to share!
Super fans of the former Soarin’ attraction’s original form, Soarin’ Over California, have been living in the nostalgic Disney days since it was brought back for Disney’s 100th anniversary celebration. While we’ve seen other anniversary celebration offerings come and go (especially in EPCOT), this was one change that seemed to stick around a tad longer than we anticipated. However, if you’re a fan of this version of the attraction, it seems our luck may have run out!
We’ve recently noticed that some of the iconic smells from this version of the ride (mainly the orange grove scent) seemed to be spotty over the last several weeks. This sparked an internal question among our team of whether this could spell the beginning of the end for the limited-time run. Now it seems that Disney has confirmed that Soarin’ Over California will end date February 27th, 2024, and will return to Soarin’ Around The World on February 28th, 2024.
We thought this was interesting that the changeover will happen the day that EPCOT’s newest seasonal festival will begin for EPCOT’s Flower & Garden Festival. So, it appears there’s only a few days left to enjoy this attraction in its beloved version without traveling out to Disneyland.
It’s unclear how smooth this departure for Soarin’ Over California will look in its final days at Disney World but if you’re a fan of the former version of the ride, you’ll want to get out to ride it soon!
