Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress — Refurbishment
Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress is temporarily closed for refurbishment beginning July 6, 2026, to add a new introductory scene featuring an animatronic Walt Disney. Reopening is expected sometime in 2027; no specific date has been confirmed.
Monday at Magic Kingdom, in peak Florida summer with schools still out. Trimmed a point off the weekday baseline: MK has run consistently soft against actuals recently (yesterday predicted 7, actual came in at 4), so tempering near-term weekday scores rather than repeating the same miss.
