Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Space Mountain, and More Attractions Down This Morning at Magic Kingdom

It’s a rough morning at Magic Kingdom today, Saturday, September 7, as nearly every “mountain” attraction except for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, as well as Pirates of the Caribbean, are temporarily closed.

Multiple Attractions Down at Magic Kingdom

The park features various themed areas and pathways, including popular rides like Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. The park has many attractions down this morning,

On the My Disney Experience app, downed rides are represented by stars rather than wait times when viewing a park on the map. This morning, every mountain attraction save for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is temporarily closed, as well as Pirates of the Caribbean.

List of Magic Kingdom Park rides currently temporarily closed: Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Pirates of the Caribbean, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, and Space Mountain.

These closures mean there is at least one major attraction in each land that is currently not accepting guests into the queue or operating the ride.

People are standing in line outside a building with wooden columns and lanterns at the Magic Kingdom. A roped queue is set up, and a staff member is directing the line. A sign with information about Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is visible on the left.

After noticing the closures on our My Disney Experience app, we walked by Pirates of the Caribbean to see ropes had been put up to block the entrance to the queue, and maintenance Cast Members were exiting the attraction. Attractions Cast Members were stationed outside to alert guests of the downtime.

Rides can be temporarily unavailable for a number of reasons, though to see this many major attractions closed in one park at the same time can certainly put a damper on your visit. It is unclear why all of the above attractions are down, but it could possibly be a power issue in the park, or several unrelated issues and unfortunate timing.

We’ll update this story as the rides return to operation.
