Walt Disney World Typhoon Lagoon refurbishment

Overview

In early September 2026, Walt Disney World reported unusually low crowd levels and minimal wait times for major attractions leading up to Labor Day. During this period, Typhoon Lagoon water park was preparing for a scheduled seasonal refurbishment.

On September 9, Typhoon Lagoon officially closed for its refurbishment period. The closure coincided with the end of the ‘Cool KIDS’ SUMMER’ promotion, which had provided Disney Resort hotel guests with complimentary same-day admission to the water parks. Following the conclusion of this promotion, guests checking into Disney Resort hotels on or after September 9 no longer receive complimentary same-day admission to Blizzard Beach. Blizzard Beach remains the sole operating water park at the resort during the Typhoon Lagoon closure.
