Anaheim Fire and Rescue arrived at Tomorrowland’s Star Tours backstage area around 12:30 p.m. Tuesday following reports of an “unknown odor,” according to Anaheim Police Sgt. Matt Sutter. Disneyland officials later confirmed the reaction was caused by building materials used by a third-party contractor.
The incident resulted in seven cast members being hospitalized for dizziness and shortness of breath, while several others were treated and released on-site. As a precaution, Disney cleared guests from adjacent areas, including the evacuation of Space Mountain and the closure of the Star Traders gift shop. While park-goers documented the closures on social media, no guests reported symptoms. All affected attractions and shops resumed normal operations by 3:00 p.m.
