Disney has confirmed that Gran Fiesta Tour Starring the Three Caballeros will be closing for refurbishment on January 6th, 2025. Currently, it has a scheduled reopening date of March 15th, so it’ll be down for more than two months.

Mexico Pavilion

For those who haven’t checked out this ride before, it’s located in the pyramid in the Mexico Pavilion, next to San Angel Inn Restaurante. Because it’s kind of hidden in the back of the pavilion, many people miss it on their first trip to the park. It’s your quintessential Disney dark ride, with a boat tour that travels around Mexico while you, Jose Carioca, and Panchito search for Donald Duck.

Gran Fiesta Tour

This ride doesn’t often close for refurbishment, but we have experienced some technical difficulties with it in the past. One of the most famous snafus this ride had in the past few years was when the Donald Duck animatronic was briefly removed and replaced with a houseplant in a sombrero. Truly iconic.

We’ll make sure to keep an eye on the calendar and this ride to see if it reopens on time. This is one of several refurbishments in the early part of 2025, including Kali River Rapids, Hall of Presidents, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and Astro Orbiter.
