Think you’re all set for your upcoming Disney World vacation?

You’ve probably read through all of our stellar reviews of Disney World restaurants, found a delightful hotel room for your trip, and decided on a good budget to get some awesome souvenirs. You know all about everything that’s available in Disney World. But you could be forgetting one thing: What’s NOT available in Disney World? Let’s find out.

We’re taking a look at all four theme parks, the Disney hotels, and the water parks on property to see what’s going to be CLOSED next week.

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is closing for a short refurbishment this week.

This ride will be closed from February 14th through the 18th. It will reopen on Saturday, February 19th, 2022.

Walt Disney World Railroad

The Walt Disney World Railroad is still closed, and it doesn’t have a reopening date right now.

We did see some testing for this attraction a couple of weeks ago, with the train spotted running in Magic Kingdom! But we learned from a Cast Member that it was likely just to keep the train’s engine in good order and not actually a sign of its reopening.

The railroad is closed because of refurbishment on the attraction and construction happening in Tomorrowland on the upcoming TRON: Lightcycle Run roller coaster.

We don’t know when TRON is going to be finished with its construction, but the railroad will likely remain closed until that construction is completed.

See why it took us a LONG time to get to Magic Kingdom recently.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Expedition Everest

Expedition Everest is closed in Disney’s Animal Kingdom right now.

This attraction is scheduled to be closed through mid-April, 2022. So far, Disney’s calendar says it’ll be closed through April 22nd at least, but that could change as the reopening date comes closer.

We have recently seen some testing on this ride, which could be a good sign that the refurbishment is coming along.

Finding Nemo: The Musical

Finding Nemo: The Musical is also closed in Animal Kingdom. This show is going to return as a reimagined show called Finding Nemo: The Big Blue…and Beyond! It will debut sometime in 2022.

Recently, signage for this musical has been removed from Animal Kingdom, possibly to make room for new signs for the updated show.

The new Finding Nemo musical is based on the timeline of Finding Dory, and some of the songs from the original show will carry over into the new version. Disney has confirmed that “Go With the Flow” is among the songs that will stay.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Voyage of the Little Mermaid

The Voyage of the Little Mermaid show is still closed in Hollywood Studios.

This show does not have a reopening date yet, but we’re watching for an announcement from Disney about its return. We’ll be sure to let you know as soon as we hear anything!

Fantasmic!

Fantasmic! is a nighttime spectacular in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This show is not currently running, but Disney has announced that it will come back sometime in 2022.

Fantasmic! will have a few major changes when it returns. For example, we know that there will be some new stunts and characters in the show.

EPCOT

Souk-Al-Magreb

Souk-Al-Magreb is a gift shop in EPCOT’s World Showcase. It’s located in the Morocco pavilion, and the doors here have been closed for a long time.

This shop is scheduled to be closed through mid-April at least (it’s on the calendar through April 22nd, which is when the calendar ends), but Disney hasn’t announced a reopening timeline for it.

Disney World Hotels

All Disney World hotels are currently accepting reservations, but there’s still one that hasn’t opened its doors yet.

Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort

Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort has not reopened yet, although reservations are available now for when it will open on March 31st, 2022.

This hotel is one of the three All-Star hotels in Disney World, which are all Value resorts.

Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa

Some DVC Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa are closed for a few updates.

These villas are going to get new pull-out beds. There’s going to be a more extensive renovation at this hotel later this spring, which will involve turning a whole building into DVC Villas, but we don’t have a starting date for that project yet.

Disney World Hotel Pools

A couple of Disney World hotel pools are currently closed, but there are other pool options for guests staying at these resorts. At Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, the Samawati Springs Pool (at Kidani Village) is currently closed (and drained), and it will be closed through April 2022.

Guests at the Animal Kingdom Villas – Kidani Village can visit the Jambo House area to use the Uzima Springs Pool instead.

The Flippin’ Fins Pool at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort (in the Little Mermaid section) is closed as well, and it will remain closed through late February of this year.

If you’re staying at this hotel, you can use the Big Blue Pool (in the Finding Nemo section) or the Cozy Cone Pool (in the Cars section), which have both remained open.

Disney World Water Parks

Blizzard Beach (one of Disney World’s water parks) is still closed. Disney hasn’t said yet when it might reopen.

But you can still find a water park in Disney World! Typhoon Lagoon is open right now, although it will occasionally close if the weather is too chilly.

So be sure to check Typhoon Lagoon’s schedule to make sure it’s open before you visit!
