Shanghai Disneyland Stays Open During Typhoon Co-May, Suspends Outdoor Attractions
Eastern China authorities declared a level-one emergency, evacuating more than 280,000 residents, grounding flights, ferries and trains.
Overview
- Typhoon Co-May made landfall on July 30, prompting a level-one emergency response across Shanghai and surrounding provinces.
- Flights, ferries and trains were suspended and strict road speed limits were enforced as heavy rain and strong winds battered the region.
- Shanghai Disneyland remained open for guests but suspended select outdoor attractions and shows, including the Mickey’s Storybook Express parade and several rides.
- A tsunami warning issued after a July 29 earthquake was later lifted before the typhoon’s full landfall eased additional coastal dangers.
- An extreme heat advisory remains in effect, leading the resort to offer real-time updates through its app and enforce heat-mitigation policies for guests and cast members.
