Could Hong Kong Disney Be Reopening Soon?
While the world awaits for news of NEW Disney theme park reopenings, we may have some insights on an announcement that could be on the horizon regarding Hong Kong Disneyland Resort.
According to info put together by Theme Park Insider, the theme park, which has had to close 3 times due the pandemic could be reopening soon due to a lifting of sanctions in the country.
If you’ve been following with MickeyBlog then you’ll know that Hong Kong Disneyland closed in January of 2020 before reopening briefly last June. It then closed up again in July but reopened in September. Due to a surge in the virus it closed again on December 2, 2020 and has remained shuttered since. If you look at the website (see above) you can see that a closure notice is still posted with a reopening date as yet to be announced.
However, we may have some good news in this department. As Theme Park Insider announced, beginning on February 18th, Hong Kong will start relaxing restrictions regarding COVID-19-related to the closure of sports and entertainment facilities. There is optimism that this will mean that Disney will be given the greenlight to reopen in the lead-in to Spring.
It should be noted that Disney has comment on the possibility of reopening but this is a story that we’ll continue to follow closely. What we do know is that under the new guidelines theme parks, cinemas and sports facilities will be allowed to reopen with social distancing measures put into place. This includes the mandatory use of facemasks.
Hong Kong Disney remains one of a few Disney parks still closed as a result of COVID-19. Disneyland Resort and Disneyland Paris are still closed to the public.
