Disney4me Posted May 24 Report Posted May 24 Magic Kingdom is currently in the midst of not one, but TWO major park changes, and that’s absolutely affecting the way most guests experience the park. Westward Ho The creation of Piston Peak and Villains Land has resulted in the closure of multiple offerings (some permanent, others temporary, such as the half-closed Walt Disney World Railroad track), and it is very likely those closures aren’t over. Most recently, we just saw Big Al’s close in Frontierland, and while Disney hasn’t come right out and said it’s permanent, it certainly looks like it. This is your warning that soon, perhaps sooner than you realize, another Frontierland spot could be going away for good. While Frontierland itself isn’t going away (at least, Disney hasn’t announced that at all), a large portion of the park that used to be taken up by Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Square Riverboat is in the process of becoming Piston Peak, and that’s beginning to affect other offerings in the area. Again, we saw Big Al’s close just a few weeks ago, and now we’ve got a pretty big hint that Westward Ho could be next. The Mickey Cinnamon Roll from Westward Ho Beginning June 22nd, Westward Ho no longer shows any times available on the Disney World website. This is very similar to what we saw happen with Big Al’s — suddenly, no times were showing on the website, and sure enough, the stand closed down that same day. ©Disney Not to mention, we’ve already seen one of the dining options unique to this spot, the Candied Bacon Skewer, move to Golden Oak Outpost, and while we’re relieved it’ll still be available, we’ll be sad to see this spot go. We also have to admit that we’re worried about one of our other favorite eats here, the Mickey-shaped Bacon-Pecan-Caramel Cinnamon Roll! It’s one of our favorites, and we’ll be devastated (no, not an exaggeration) if it doesn’t move elsewhere. Candied Bacon Skewer It’s possible that we could see something else move into this spot that is more themed to the new Piston Peak land, but there’s no set-in-stone plan at this time that Disney has revealed to the public. We just wanted to be sure to warn you about the likely impending closure — get those last visits in now! More Recent Magic Kingdom News!
