Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar Set to Close Briefly for Refurbishment
Disneyland Resort has officially confirmed that the indoor area of Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar at the Disneyland Hotel will be temporarily closing its doors for a scheduled refurbishment. While the legendary “skip” might be taking a short break from the spotlight, this refresh ensures the jungle oasis remains shipshape for years to come.

Disneyland Resort has officially confirmed that the indoor seating area of Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar at the Disneyland Hotel will be closing for refurbishment beginning February 17, 2026.
The announcement follows a construction permit filed by Disney in October, which tipped off fans that a refresh was on the horizon. This maintenance period will allow the crew to complete specific upgrades and interior work to keep the jungle retreat in top shape.
“DLH – Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar – Tenant Improvement: Replace (42) gas tiki torches with epoxy anchors at exterior. Install air conditioner at electrical room. Replace interior show effects, show lighting and lighting systems. With mechanical, electrical and plumbing.”
Based on the recently filed permits, this refurbishment will primarily impact the bar’s famous themed interior. This means the Jungle Cruise-inspired decor and the interactive “magic” triggered by signature drinks will be temporarily offline while the crew goes to work.
The good news is that the jungle isn’t completely closed! The outdoor bar and patio seating will remain fully operational, allowing guests to continue enjoying their favorite tropical cocktails and appetizers under the stars.
While Disneyland has yet to reveal a specific reopening date or the full extent of the renovations, we will keep you updated as more details emerge.
