With new lands and rides coming to Disney Parks, it often means some of our favorite attractions will be closed, even if it’s just temporarily.

If you’re heading to Disneyland or Disney World this year, be aware that a classic ride might be under the weather while you’re in the parks. While there are plenty of other attractions to enjoy in the meantime, you’re allowed to be sad you can’t ride Big Thunder Mountain 1000x on your trip. Here are the rides that are or will be closed during 2025.

The Hall of Presidents in Magic Kingdom closed in January this year and has no reopening date other than “later in 2025.”
