Big news from the Magic Kingdom! Just days after a peculiar incident left guests disoriented, Disneyland Resort has decided to close its iconic Space Mountain indefinitely for refurbishment. Scheduled to reopen in September, the famous Tomorrowland attraction has a lot of fans eagerly waiting for an official reopening date.
Guests recently faced an unusual situation when the ride’s intricacies caused confusion, leading many to wander through the maze-like queues. A Reddit user recounted, “My daughter and I entered the Space Mountain building at rope-drop, but ended up outside on the wrong floor alongside other puzzled guests.”
Compounding the confusion, as more visitors flocked in, it became evident that something was amiss with the queue setup. A lack of cast member direction further escalated the situation, with some guests even hopping barriers in a desperate bid to find their way. Eventually, thanks to the help of a savvy fellow guest, the group managed to navigate their way correctly.
This incident isn’t just isolated to Disneyland California, as Tokyo Disneyland also saw the closure of its Space Mountain recently, set to be reimagined and reopened as “Space Mountain Earthrise” in 2027.
