Disney World, rides, restaurants closed for refurbishment, March 2022
March is here and that means spring is coming to Walt Disney World, which usually means a very light refurbishment schedule with spring breaks coming. However, there are still a number of attractions that never did reopen since Disney World’s original closure due to the pandemic in March 2020.
Many of these attractions are slowly coming back. Some announcements have been made that they will reopen sometime in the next few months.
Here’s a look at what’s still closed and a few areas closed for refurbishment. Don’t forget to check the Walt Disney World site for the latest updates. (And if you want to know what to look out for this month, here are 7 Big Things Coming to Disney World in March)
