Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland

We know Disneyland will be seeing a lot of temporary ride closures at the beginning of 2026. However, we’re happy to say that Disney has just updated us on when the rides are expected to reopen — and some of them are sooner than you may think! Let’s take a look at the dates to be aware of.

Planning guide for the ultimate Disney vacation

Mark Twain Riverboat

The Mark Twain Riverboat is closing for a refurb on January 12th. However, the refurb is going to be a short one, as it’s reopening just a few days later on January 16th! Given the short timeline, it seems like the work being done on the attraction is just regular maintenance to keep the ride running smoothly.

Haunted Mansion

We’re saying bye to Halloween Town as Haunted Mansion transitions back to its non-holiday self at the beginning of January. Haunted Mansion Holiday will close on January 11th and then reopen on January 23rd as the regular Haunted Mansion. We see this every single year, so it doesn’t come as a surprise. We’ll just be missing our happy haunts in what will feel like a long 12 days while the ride is down.

Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind

It’s time to make our way over to Disney California Adventure, because Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind will be closing on January 5th for its refurbishment. This refurbishment is longer than the other two, as it’s scheduled to reopen on January 23rd. There hasn’t been any notice of ride updates, so it’s most likely just regular maintenance work.

Incredicoaster

Lastly, the Incredicoaster will be closing on January 5th and having the longest refurbishment out of the four attractions. The attraction will reopen on February 6th. So, it’ll be a tad over a month of closure for one of the park’s most popular rides! We’ll be eagerly waiting for the ride during this time, but it’s good that Disney is working on it to make sure it continues to run properly.
