Disney World Refurbishment & Closure Schedule for August 2023

Disney World refurbishments are a pretty regular thing. Rides and attractions need maintaining and upkeep and sometimes they are even updated. Take a look at the refurbishment and closure schedule for August.

Haunted Mansion: August 7-9, 2023. It was originally speculated that the Hatbox Ghost was being installed when the ride closes in a few days. However, we now know it’ll be for “routine maintenance”. We believe installation could begin but we don’t have an official date for when the Hatbox Ghost will make his debut.

Splash Mountain-currently closed. Work is still underway transforming Splash Mountain into Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom. The new attraction is set to open in late 2024.

Disney’s Blizzard Beach-currently closed. Disney World has two water parks but they’re never open at the same time. Disney’s Blizzard Beach is currently closed for refurbishment while Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon is open to guests.

August’s refurbishment schedule is fairly light so far. Not many attractions and rides will be closed this month.
