Overview

• Disneyland officials confirmed the Frontierland coaster will halt operations beginning September 2 with no reopening timeline provided.
• The shutdown mirrors the Magic Kingdom’s Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, which has been closed for refurbishment since January.
• Guests inferred the closure from Disneyland’s park calendar, as formal announcements and reopening projections remain undisclosed.
• Big Thunder’s downtime joins a broader wave of ride overhauls, including Haunted Mansion from August 9–21 and Enchanted Tiki Room from September 7.
• Disney’s simultaneous maintenance across domestic parks underscores a drive to standardize attraction quality and enhance guest experiences.
