Refurbishment and Closures list

In light of the recent info about Spaceship Earth and Buzz Lightyear closures I was looking to consolidate my list of things we’ll miss out on for our trip in October. :cry:

I went to the TP page to doublecheck and they already have the new updates(!), but for some reason AK is showing nothing listed even though it has active construction and the recent announcement of the Boneyard closing soon.

Who should be tagged to get this updated and are there any other main rides I should have on my radar for missing/no longer available in October?

MK:
Train (only in shuttle mode)
Buzz Lightyear
Thunder Mountain
Tom Sawyer/Liberty Belle

EP:
Spaceship Earth

HS:
Muppets

AK:
Boneyard/Dino Land
Tough to be a Bug

@Jeff_AZ and @ThorKat both have October threads.

We don’t have the ability to change what TP lists though. I would start by tagging @len :wink:

I completely misunderstood. That’s what I get for skimming. :joy_cat::joy_cat::joy_cat:

Hi folks-

We differentiate between ‘closure’ and ‘demolition’ on the site. A closure will eventually reopen. A demolition will not.

For the soon-to-be-demolished attractions, the attractions themselves note the demolition date:

and

And I think it’s not possible to add those attractions to touring plans after the last date of operation.

It might be possible to modify the Closures page to include upcoming demolitions. I’ll add this to the to-do list. It’s a good idea. Thanks for sending it in!

Not to call you a liar, len…but…

:nerd_face:

Perhaps the wording for the refurbishments page should be changed not to include permanent closures?

Phew! I’ll just make it to see Spaceship Earth!! It’s just not an Epcot trip if I don’t get to thank the Phoenicians!

Same!!! I’m there the week before closure, so thankfully I’ll be able to ride it before closure… although, I can imagine what updates they could do!!!

I’m so far behind in refurbishment news. I didn’t know SE was set to happen. So, sad face :slightly_frowning_face:, because I will be there right after Thanksgiving, but also happy face :blush:, it’s getting some love.

Thanks! I guess I was just confused why the other parks seemed to have everything conveniently listed but AK had nothing, especially knowing they have so much coming and going right now! It’s so nice having it all in one place!



Unfortunately all those great ideas you are imagining are unlikely to happen with this refurbishment. From what I’ve read, no major changes or updates to the scenes are expected.
