Okay, so a LOT is going on in Magic Kingdom now, and we get it — our heads are spinning, too, trying to keep up with all of it.
Jungle Cruise
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure opened. Country Bear Jamboree reopened with a new show. A WHOLE new Cars land is coming that will replace Tom Saywer Island and Rivers of America (and we’re still not sure HOW to feel about that). PLUS a Villains land is on the way. So in all that chaos, you might have missed an important announcement about a classic ride in Magic Kingdom. So we’re filling you in: Jungle Cruise will temporarily close as of tomorrow.
Yes, if you head over to Adventureland tomorrow, you’ll see that Jungle Cruise will be closed for refurbishment. This is usually just a case of Disney doing some general maintenance on the ride, and the good news is that it will reopen on October 17th. But if you’re visiting Disney World between tomorrow and then, this classic attraction won’t be available.
Jungle Cruise
A few years ago, the Jungle Cruise had some HUGE changes introduced to the ride with brand new scenes and storylines. Disney hasn’t said that anything will change with that, but we’ll see if Disney announces any actual changes to the ride. In the meantime, if you’re missing out on those bad dad jokes and puns, you can get a bit of a Jungle Cruise experience at Skipper Canteen, which is a restaurant themed around the Jungle Cruise.

Jungle Cruise will eventually get a holiday overlay to become Jingle Cruise — this usually happens at the end of November. We always recommend checking out the holiday overlay because it comes with new holiday-themed jokes, too.
Jingle Cruise!
If Jungle Cruise reopens before its scheduled reopening date, we’ll be sure to let you know, so stay tuned to DFB for more.
