Construction Update: Cool Ship Refurbishment Progress in Tomorrowland
Something is definitely brewing (or blasting off) over in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom! The Cool Ship snack kiosk, which closed for refurbishment back in May, is now showing major signs of progress as Disney crews have officially laid the foundation for the refreshed structure.

Once known for serving up frozen Coca-Cola and icy treats with a retro-space twist, Cool Ship has been a Tomorrowland staple for years, complete with its quirky rocket perched above. Since construction walls went up earlier this summer, the entire structure has been raised and cleared, leaving fans wondering what the updated kiosk will look like when it finally reopens.
Photos taken this week reveal cinder blocks, concrete work, and foundation supports in place, with work lights and equipment staged around the site. The old footprint is clearly being rebuilt from the ground up, signaling that this isn’t just a quick refresh but more of a structural overhaul.

According to the official Walt Disney World website, Cool Ship is listed as “temporarily closed for refurbishment” with a reopening expected later this year. While Disney hasn’t released any concept art or details about design changes, it’s anyone’s guess if the refreshed stand will return looking familiar or debut a brand-new look to match Tomorrowland’s evolving aesthetic.
