CONFIRMED: Disney’s Monorail Will Close SOON For Refurbishment

[Disney4me]

Disneyland has a LOT going on right now.

Downtown Disney Monorail station

Although Tiana’s Bayou Adventure has opened and the new Haunted Mansion queue is complete, there’s still a lot happening around the resort. In California Adventure, a new Coco ride and Avatar-themed land are on the way. The Red Car Trolley in that park will also be permanently closing soon to make way for an Avengers Campus expansion. In Downtown Disney, new restaurants and shops have recently opened, with more on the way. Well, now, a classic Disneyland attraction will be closing soon and you need to know about it.

The Disneyland Monorail opened in 1959 and was the first daily operating Monorail in the world. Currently, it connects Downtown Disney to Tomorrowland inside Disneyland Park. Well, the Monorail will be closing soon — but don’t worry, it’s only temporary. The closure is for a scheduled refurbishment (aka maintenance). 

Disneyland Monorail

Disneyland has confirmed that the Monorail will be closed as of January 6th, 2025, for refurbishment. However, no reopeniing date has been announced yet.

The Monorail

Walt Disney originally believed that the Monorail would be THE public transport option for the future (hence one also being built in Disney World). However, the technology never really took off, although there are other Monorail systems in the world. At first, it was only an attraction that took visitors on a scenic route around Disneyland. It eventually expanded to the Disneyland Hotel, although that stop was eventually demolished. Now, you can take it to get from Downtown Disney to INSIDE Tomorrowland and back (meaning you need a valid park ticket to ride it).

So if you’re visiting Disneyland soon, you’ll want to make note of that closure. We’ll keep an eye out for a reopening date and let you know when Disney announces one.
