If you’re heading to Disneyland in December, then you’ll want to read up on these ride closures before you go.
It’s good to know beforehand what will be closed so you can plan ahead and know what you will and won’t be doing on your trip.
The holidays are in full swing at Disneyland, so you’ll have a lot of fun doing all of the Christmas things and riding the newest ride, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, which opened November 15th.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Disneyland recently closed Big Thunder Mountain Railroad on November 18th. It will reopen on December 12, so it will be open for a lot of December.
This Frontierland ride is closing for a refurbishment and it is unknown exactly what is being worked on.
Disneyland Railroad
The Disneyland Railroad is open and running, but it’s important to note that the station in New Orleans Square is currently closed. You cannot board or unload here right now.
Casey Jr. Circus Train
This Fantasyland ride will be closed for just a few days from December 2-6 for a quick refurbishment.
This ride is so fun and is a family favorite of ours!
Storybook Land Canal Boats
Storybook Land Canal Boats is another Fantasyland ride that will be closing for a quick couple of days from December 2-5.
It shares a lot of area with Casey Jr. Circus Train, so it’s understandable that they’re closed for some of the same days.
