Disneyland Announces Refurbishment Updates for Space Mountain
If you are like me, when you visit your favorite Disney park, you have certain “must-do” attractions that you visit every time. One of those attractions is Space Mountain!
We reported just a few weeks back that the popular ride was scheduled to close for refurbishment on August 5 but had no further details.
Now we have a few more updates to share!

Space Mountain at Disneyland will close on Aug. 5 for refurbishment and is set to reopen on Sept. 6.
New updates include new lighting throughout the ride, including in the attraction’s tunnel.
Temporary Closures
It is not uncommon for rides and experiences to temporarily close for refurbishments. These updates can include updated decor, safety enhancements, minor refreshes, and more.
Disneyland Resort has multiple attractions that will be undergoing refurbishment in the next few weeks.
The Disneyland Railroad and the Disneyland Monorail will close for refurbishments on August 5th and 12th.
Fans of Animation Academy and Turtle Talk with Crush will need to alter their plans as the experiences will be closed from August 5th for seasonal maintenance.
Turtle Talk is expected to reopen by August 16th, but Disney has not shared any info on Animation Academy’s return date.
Indiana Jones Adventure also closes for refurbishment on Sept. 9, though the reopening date has not yet been announced.
Disney California Adventure only has one closure coming up. Anna & Elsa’s Royal Welcome character meet-and-greet is temporarily closed from August 5th to 15th.
Ongoing Closures
These attractions join Splash Mountain, Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Davy Crockett’s Explorer Canoes, and Redwood Creek Challenge Trail, which were already down for refurbishment.
Haunted Mansion is currently undergoing refurbishment, which includes a new queue and store. Haunted Mansion Holiday kicked off (early) today, and guests can utilize a virtual queue on the Disneyland App.
