Disneyland Adds More Ride Closures and Restaurant Closures to Calendar

As the holidays are coming to a close at Disneyland, the resort is entering into refurbishment season. Disneyland likes to take advantage of this slower time in January and February to complete any necessary ride and restaurant refurbishments.

We already have a good chunk of January ride closures that have either started or are coming up, but there are now even more visible on the refurbishment calendar. This includes the closure of a popular bar and a classic opening-day attraction. Keep reading for all details! At Mickey Visit, we cover the latest Disney news, including Disney changing how rope drop works at Disneyland for all guests and Disneyland revealing dozens of new foods and a restaurant menu refresh. Disneyland added another ride closure here.

We now know that Jungle Cruise will close starting February 17, 2026. We don’t yet have an exact reopening date, but we know that this will be a multi-week closure because Disneyland shared on the Disneyland After Dark 70 Years of Favorites page that it will be closed during this event on March 3 and March 5, 2026. We also know that the Monorail will be closed during those two dates, but we don’t yet have exact details.

Additionally, we have a couple more dining location closures starting soon. At Galaxy’s Edge, Oga’s Cantina and Jat Kaa’s Coolers: J1-KC at Resistance Clearing will close from January 20 through January 24, 2026, reopening on January 25. This bar underwent a significant change as it recently dropped reservations for guests earlier this year.
