According to reporter Scott Gustin, the closure is expected to last around a month and will entail updates to the lighting throughout the attraction, including to Space Mountain’s iconic tunnel.

Additionally, work will also be done on the flooring inside the attraction.
Multiple Disneyland Attractions Are Currently Closed
Space Mountain will become just the latest Disneyland attraction to close for refurbishment. Currently, most of Critter Country is closed to facilitate the opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Construction in Disneyland has necessitated the closure of Critter Country.
The construction has led to the temporary closure of both the Davy Crockett Explorer Canoes and The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. It has also necessitated the closure of the New Orleans Square Station on the Disneyland Railroad.
Speaking of New Orleans Square, the Haunted Mansion is currently closed as Disney continues to rework the attraction’s queue.

The Haunted Mansion is currently closed as Disney redoes the attraction’s queue.
The good news for Disneyland fans is that a refurbished Space Mountain, hopefully with a returned blue tunnel, should be open in time for the start of Disney’s Halloween festivities.
