I guarantee you that was a very tense meeting deciding where those closures will go on the calendar. August is the only in-between point of peak seasons so it makes sense. Maybe they're planning on having the entirety of 2025 be part of the 70th celebration and there won't be a refurb season?

[@leannebahuaudbradley569]

Wow, I am so disappointed and heartbroken to hear about these August 5 closures. My family is spending a fortune to come on a once in a lifetime trip, and the rides we were looking forward to the most were space mountain, haunted mansion, turtle talk with Crush and The Anna and Elsa Meet and greet are going to be closed! We also booked months ago and paid full price for our tickets and customer service wouldn’t price adjust for the summer sale that they had for the three day ticket. I am so disappointed makes me want to cancel my trip. It’s not the Disney magic and customer service that was the standard years ago.

[@LCLand]

No it’s certainly not. We were there the past two days and could not believe the attitudes of some. Night before, we happily entered downtown Disney from the Harbor side all thoroughly checked. They unzipped and checked everything but we like safety so we thanked them and we were all chatting and saying have a wonderful evening to each other... They said stay hydrated! I dangled my water bottle I was carrying saying yes, absolutely! 😄 My friends kids had never been so they wanted to see everything. Even the Disneyland hotel at the opposite end. So we went and looked at all that and when we tried to get back into downtown Disney the boy checking my bags poked at my water bottle and asked if it was glass. It’s the kind covered in silicone so it’s safe to drop. I said yes, thinking he was interested in my handy bottle. Healthy water in glass but secure and protected..genius! But no. He looked so pleased to inform me glass bottles aren’t permitted. I thought I misunderstood and asked him to repeat himself. He did and I was so confused and started asking questions like why didn’t they say something at the other end when we could have taken it back to the hotel. He just kept repeating I must surrender the bottle. I let him know we would have to walk around the entire park if I wanted to keep my bottle. I mean we are in our 50s we aren’t young spry kids. He smirked so I asked to speak with a supervisor thinking surely they would make an exception for their error. The other side saw the bottle after all. The supervisor towered over menacingly with a smug satisfied smirk also, worse than the first! They were itching to flex their authority and with great attitude said I must surrender the bottle or find another way back to the hotel. Defeated I told my friend who was waiting on the other side with her kids that I had to throw out my bottle. They’re expensive I was not happy but what to do. She said no don’t do that it’s not right etc. but I saw this guy would not be budged he had his heels dug in. So I asked another security guy if there was another supervisor on duty and he said no, just the one. I asked well what’s the best way to get back, Katella or Ball. Out hotel was on the Ball side but he said it was probably faster going Katella! That’s probably a 3 mile hike so I said maybe we should call a taxi. My friend was so upset at the injustice she kept arguing with the supervisor and he didn’t like that so apparently he told her to leave the screening area and the premises! And then came and interrupted my instructions with the other guy who wasn’t done yet but he was getting close with his body starting to bully so I complied and moved on while my friend kept arguing with him. I found another security man further in and checked with him on which way to go and he said it’s probably the same either way but if you do want to take Katella try going this way etc etc and as he’s speaking I can hear supervisor bullying my friend and she later told me he said “you’re banned from the property for 24 hours!!” Because she wouldn’t stop arguing. He kept saying get off the premises and she was like she’s getting directions and he said “use GPS!l She also said they even opened her wallet! Weird. So we finally leave with instructions and it’s so complicated in that area we got lost and just ended up taking the Ball route around. 90 degrees. No water, drank all that. Not knowing we would be hiking for miles none of us were wearing appropriate walking shoes for distance. It was a treacherous journey. Not the way we thought we would start this long awaited trip for the kids’ first time! But they were troopers. Made lots of funny jokes about Lord Supervisor and his rules. Whatever. Chalk it up to funny mockery adventure. Then next day Disneyland. Half the staff don’t seem like they want to be there, expressionless faces sharply motioning you to move along, “NEXT!” There were some sweet ones too but I’m shocked at the others. So later that evening we are getting on Dumbo. One of the kids tells then we are a party of 4 so she assigned two and two but we had all decided to ride alone since those seats are so small and her kids are 14 and 15 and tall. The girl allowed the change and directed us to 13, 14, 15, 16. We are all buckled in and ready and here comes this cast member with a woman and child saying we stole their elephant and one of us needs to get out! Again, shocked confusion….I let him know she gave us 4 elephants. He kept saying no she didn’t and I kept saying yes she did we would have happily waited for the next ride if she hadn’t. He just kept saying no she didn’t then said “I was there!” I said I was there too! Finally my friends daughter gets out and says it’s okay I don’t want to go. I get out to go ask the girl to verify that she gave us 4 elephants and suddenly he does a 180 I have no idea why but he’s all smiles saying no get back in it’s okay it’s okay. Now he’s arguing with the daughter who’s over it and doesn’t want to ride and he’s arguing and insisting she get back in her elephant. She finally does and we ride and have more funny stories…surely Lord Supervisor is behind this …. 😄 By third day our feet were so painful…the daughter wanted to sit on a bench while we waited in line for Toy Story. I said no they won’t let you in at the front. They’ll say you cut in line and then you know the dark lord will pop up saying “well well well what do we have here…” her son interjects that he will say, “look what the cat dragged in” Lol. It really was comical all of it. But yeah, Disney has sunk to never before seen levels. 🤷🏻‍♀️🙂

[@DeeMontezx1]

Nope they are pretty much getting worse and worse and people are letting it happen because they still pay whatever they ask for so the abuse continues.

Regarding the dates chosen for Space's refurbishment- Space Mountain is closing down for one month (give or take) to do the flooring and lighting work in hopes that it will be operational for the busy Halloween and Christmas seasons, which take up the entire rest of the year after August. Presumably this is all work preparing to have rides in top shape by the 70th anniversary next year.

IMO not that I’m an expert on Disneyland, but to me Tomorrow Land needs a major overhaul. It’s more like Yesterday Land. Like they could close the whole thing and re-do it. -Keep Nemo as is pretty much. -Keep the rockets, for nostalgia but modernize them -Keep Space Mountain for nostalgia but modernize it -Keep Autopia but modernize it (with maybe electric carts etc something futuristic looking). -Finally revive a track out of the people mover and make it something futuristic like a mini high speed rail or something. -get rid of Star Tours is that they have galaxys edge -get rid of Astro Blasters and make something new -get rid of whatever is in that large round building wasting space and make something new.

[@geofferypmeyers]

Animation Academy, Winnie, Canoes, Haunted Mansion, Railroad, Tiana’s, Space Mountain, and Lincoln too? Is way too many attractions to have down during peak summer. They do not care

[@acirinelli]

26:32 that's just electrical conduit. Probably the best route to get new power into that side of the attraction. The green pipe sticking up out of the ground is for the storm drain. Presumably, it's sticking out pretty high still because they don't know the final grade there yet. It's just a stub that will be cut later.

[@mgtrumpet]

Railroad will be going down again in October for some track replacement.

[@alextirrellRI]

Same thing with maintenance. I found out that because the park opens so early and closes so late, the crews only have a very limited time to work on things, which is one reason Rise does not always open on time -- the crews are literally finishing as they hand it over to the operators, plus the whole thing takes 45 minutes to get running, which is why if it breaks down late in the day it may not come back up.

[@DeeMontezx1]

They do nothing to improve or modernize their rides, only the fanatics don't mind paying more and getting less at the parks with the constant ride closures.

[@kaibae4791]

Disney might want to consider starting to give away tickets with all these attractions closed simultaneously. On top of all of the entertainment cut backs, I’m curious as to exactly what they believe guests are going to come to the park to do? Two E-tickets have been closed for half a year and adding Critter Country recently with expanding closures likely related to that construction seems logical but we're approaching a third of the park out of commission with the additions of Space and the train. I completely understand and agree that many of these attractions need work, but these simultaneous closures and cut backs are bordering on ridiculous at this point.

26:03 As a construction management student the green piping is plumbing of some sort, who knows what it is running. The gray piping is plastic conduit to run electrical. Usually high voltage. The green that is painted on the mountain is indicate where the plumbing lines run on the inside.

[@davidculver5446]

Green piping is sewer sometimes called non potable as if you have run off during rain or water from food processing dishes etc., it will go done that line The green pipes you see coming from the ground can serve as venting or point of entry, bathrooms. The pipe placement is extensive both in critter.country and the hh house. Before any additions can open the lines must be tested. You have to wonder how much damage the original pipes endured with.the massive rain run off. Disney normally captures and hold in the water rides or sends town sewer lines.

I'd guess the Disneyland Railroad closure is due to the construction at New Orleans Square station. Probably need it to be closed to finish up stuff near to the tracks at Haunted Mansion.

2025 is 70 years of DL….this is the time for the resort to start getting ready. Get as much as can be done & have open for it’s Platinum birthday. This can justify price increase, options made for guests to buy package deals & new merchandise. Pssst, support the cast members……most our in negotiations for a new contract with DLR. Cast can’t talk about it while at work, but would appreciate your support & kind words.

Closing more attractions just before D23 makes absolutely no sense. A time when you will have your most die hard fans, many of which are not Disneyland regulars, seems like a serious lack of coordination.

[@justintimeforeverything]

Alternative view: they’re die hard fans. They’ll come regardless. Better to close down earlier and be ready for Halloween season that to wait another week and push into that period when attendance goes up

I chose the wrong year to upgrade my Magic Key. Everything is closed!

[@davideckert5353]

The top of the lift hill on Tiana's Bayou Adventure now appears to look like a face that one is being shot out of a mouth! It's all I can see when looking at the redesign. I also why the wood shingles on the first lift hill are now arranged differently. The shingles do not follow the peak roofline.

Grey pipes look like electrical conduits

Had my first trip to Disneyland planned for August 9th… seems like half the park will be closed down.

[@NoStringsRunning]

Make the most of it! You’ll still have an incredible time…

[@monoruby1614]

Does anyone have any guess when Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln might open?

[@jeffreynelson8652]

We'll be there at the end of July, so hopefully August 5th is correct for the new closures and NOT next week lol

[@marcmooney9293]

August 5th is next month david! Lol it happens to the best of us. Had me trippin at work today for a second. Lol😊

[@itsashley1]

I'm glad i ain't going to disney until October so hopefully all these rides will be reopen by then lol

[@Chuck1976]

Coaster at California adventure got stuck. About an hour ago. Came out in the noon news.

[@aviator27zero]

Month and a week David, not a week away.

[@yankeebiscuitfan]

In October, I will visit my daughter in the US. I want to visit Disneyland. My partner is chronically fatigued. Does the DAS program apply to her as well?

[@WindowtotheMagic]

That would be an awesome question to ask Disneyland. Please be sure to let us know what the answer is after you speak to them.

[@lauri-jeancarlson8476]

Disneyland railroad is closing soon

[@coasters_bgw]

It's closing in over a month

[@skeleton_sofa3333]

Today the August 12 calendar has the Monorail closed too.

[@chrislowfamily]

The reason they’re closing SM on August 5? Fiscal budgets. Aug 30 is the end of the fiscal year for Disney. My guess is that they have a little left over in their maintenance budget for the year and need to spend the money before the year ends.

[@leonelflores7143]

With so many rides closed this year and reduction in entertainment, do you think that open up another class action law suit for pass holders who don’t feel they are getting the value or premium they are paying for. It’s going to be a year without so many major attractions.

[@davidculver5446]

It will happen

[@allenlj5165]

I agree the timing is incredibly weird. August is when D23 happens so the park gets a lot of business during that time. Why theyd close up to 5 attractions now is beyond me. Why not wait and reopen haunted mansion and wait till September, because now THREE lightning lane attractions will be closed! I thought the whole point of making Pirates a LL was to offset Bayou and Haunted and make buying LL worth it. Now with Space Mountain closed it seems even more pointless.

[@davidculver5446]

I believe the rain storms severely damaged existing sewer lines. I believe they had no choice as this problem effects city waste water controls and actions. If you want expansion fix the sewer lines

[@bassguitar1997]

Dang it’s August This year skipped my birthday and Fourth of July

[@WindowtotheMagic]

Yep. Leap year Fresh Baked style!

[@lindamemo5224]

If the railroad is closing it could be because of Tiana’s and haunted mansion work

[@roshawnrobinson1999]

Haunted Mansion is still on the closed list for same dates Freshbaked mentioned.

[@calvincheng]

The thinking is they already got the money from out of town ppl for the summer. The place is sold out even if every ride is closed. They are more dependent on the local crowd in the low season. So they can’t afford to close rides in the low season. The place would be empty! 😂

[@PassItOnForever]

I decided to play a drinking game every time he said August 5th was next week or the train was closing next week. I now regret my decision.

[@carrievaldez3708]

😂😂

[@Beachman-wx4xe]

What anxiety! You really have to research before planning a trip to Disneyland. I know some of the issues are due to supply chain, but I mean sheesh!
