Construction is a BIG thing right now in Disney World since the 50th anniversary is coming up soon!

And, while we’re super excited for all the restaurants, attractions (Tron Lightcycle Run, baby!!), and more coming to the parks, we happened to spot a change today that gave us some major feels.

You might remember that Big Top Souvenirs has been closed off and on recently (once in December and again in January) for unknown reasons.

And, as we stopped by to find that it’s open again (yay!!!), we made a pretty sad discovery. Where did the old adorable carpet go???

While Big Top previously had colorful carpet that looked like stitched together tarps and was themed very circus-like

…now it’s been switched to a dark gray carpet that doesn’t match the theme like the original did. Sad face. ):

The biggest problem with this carpet (other than the fact it’s not nearly as cute) is that it makes the already dark circus tent appear even darker. Tbh, it slightly gives us the creeps with how dark it is.

Buuut, not all hope is lost! The carpet may have been switched due to a possible flood in the store according to a Cast Member (who said that “unfortunately, Dumbo was splashing around”). The floor near the entrance to Big Top looks pretty unfinished, so we’re hoping that the new carpet is only a temporary fix.
