Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress attraction in the Magic Kingdom is closing tomorrow for a significant refurbishment. The ride will remain closed until 2027 when it reopens with completely new scenes and updated audio-animatronic figures. Industry insiders suggest this closure coincides with the upcoming opening of Villains Land and Piston Peak, which will require additional capacity in the park. The attraction features beloved characters like John, Sarah, Patty, Jimmy, Grandma, Grandpa, Rover, and Uncle Orville who will return in their updated forms. New scenes include a Halloween Night 1985 setting that promises to delight longtime fans of the classic ride. This major update represents one of the most extensive renovations for this iconic attraction in recent years.
