Disney4me Posted December 10, 2024 Report Share Posted December 10, 2024 There are going to be some big closures in Disney World in 2025! Disney’s Animal Kingdom Next year, parts of DinoLand, U.S.A. begin to close as the land gets transformed into the Tropical Americas. Also, we have the scheduled closures of Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Square Riverboat as construction begins on the new Cars attractions for Frontierland. But what about seasonal refurbishments? Well, we’ve got some of those on the way too! The Disney World website has been updated to show that Kali River Rapids will close for its seasonal refurbishment on January 6th, 2025. It’s listed as temporarily closed through the end of the calendar, which currently goes out to mid-February.

As a water-based ride, it typically requires more regular refurbishments than the dry attractions. We also noticed this phenomenon with Splash Mountain in the past, so we’ll be interested to see if Tiana’s Bayou Adventure has a winter closure in the future.

We’ll have to wait and see what the Disney World calendar says as we get more dates available.

On that date, TriceraTop Spin will close, as well as Chester & Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures and the Fossil Fun Games. This means that for several weeks, we’ll have multiple attractions closed in Animal Kingdom. Dinoland, U.S.A. So if you’re going to Animal Kingdom in January and February, you may notice higher wait times for the attractions that remain open, and heavier crowds throughout the park as there will be fewer spaces to disperse to.
