Originally aiming for an April return after its seasonal ‘it’s a small world Holiday’ overlay concluded, the reopening was then set for May 9th. Today’s update reveals a further postponement, with the current target reopening date now May 13, 2025.

The reopening of ‘it’s a small world’ will bring not only the familiar heartwarming message but also some exciting visual updates. Among the new additions are Miguel and his loyal companion Dante, who will appear as silhouettes against a breathtaking marigold bridge. As guests sail through this scene, they’ll hear the pair joining in the iconic song alongside the other children from around the globe.

The magic of ‘it’s a small world’ will be amplified even further later this year. Beyond the upcoming arrival of Miguel and Dante, July 17th will mark the debut of a special third verse added to the attraction’s unforgettable song. This new verse is a poignant addition, written by the late, great Richard Sherman, and was initially unveiled during Jolly Holiday: A Musical Celebration of Richard M. Sherman at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event.

Are you excited to see the new additions to ‘it’s a small world’?
