Disney4me Posted November 24 Report Share Posted November 24 With the constant flow of Disney World news, updates, and changes, we’re always doing our best to fill you in on all those important dates. Magic Kingdom One upcoming date has several Disney fans avoiding Magic Kingdom because of a certain event taking place. What might it be, you ask? Well, here’s all you need to know! If you’re a fan of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, then we have sad news for you. The wildest ride in the wilderness over at Frontierland will be closing for an extensive refurbishment. Though no concrete reopening date has been confirmed, Disney did state that it will reopen with “a little bit of new magic” sometime in 2026. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad When is the official date for this lengthy closure? January 6th, 2025. This means that January 5th is a day to avoid Magic Kingdom unless you want to hang around busy crowds and wait an insane amount of time to ride Big Thunder Mountain Railroad for the last time. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Despite wanting to shout one final ‘yeehaw’ while zooming through the rocky terrain, the final date of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad’s operation is one Disney adults are certainly avoiding. Instead, we suggest hopping aboard the speedy train far before that date if you’re able to so you can avoid what will be one of the busiest days for Magic Kingdom. ©Disney Back at D23, Disney announced that a land inspired by Disney Villains would officially be coming to Magic Kingdom. This new land will be built behind Big Thunder Mountain, with construction already underway. Although it is not confirmed that the coaster’s closure has anything to do with the upcoming Villian’s land, we think it just might just be given the timeline and the length. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Although we are sad at how long Big Thunder Mountain will be closed, we are excited for the future of this attraction and can’t wait to see all the fun new changes that might come with it!
