Peter Pan’s Flight Closing for Lengthy Refurbishment This Summer at the Magic Kingdom

Peter Pan’s Flight will be closing for a lengthy refurbishment at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World this summer.

What’s Happening:

  • The popular opening day attraction Peter Pan’s Flight is scheduled to close for a roughly six-week long refurbishment this summer at the Magic Kingdom.
  • Peter Pan’s Flight will close on Monday, July 8th and will reopen to guests on August 21st, 2024.
  • Permits have recently been filled by Walt Disney Imagineering for work on the attraction, but no changes or upgrades have been announced at this time.
  • One possible change is the depiction of Native Americans in the attraction, which currently contains some outdated stereotypes that could be considered offensive.
  • This possible change would follow similar updates made to attractions such as the Jungle Cruise, as well as the replacement of Splash Mountain.
  • Unlike other versions of Peter Pan’s Flight around the world, the Magic Kingdom version has seen few changes to the ride experience since it first opened over 50 years ago.
