Disney Springs closed due to the coronavirus back in March and recently began a phased reopening, but it seems not every business survived the closure. The Pearl Factory Kiosk has permanently closed up shop according to multiple reports.
The kiosk allowed guests to choose an oyster and have a pearl made into a ring or necklace from over 135 settings and watch them build your unique jewelry. The kiosk is located in the Marketplace across from TREN-D.
Disney Springs opened on May 20 to limited capacity, requiring masks of guests. Disney-owned locations like the World of Disney store followed on May 27.
The theme parks will open in July with Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom scheduled to open July 11, and Epcot and Hollywood Studios following July 15.
Tokyo Disney Resort has been closed due to the Coronavirus pandemic since late February, but for those looking to get their park merch fix, the Resort has announced they’ll be selling merchandise through the official Tokyo Disney Resort app starting May 26.
“During the temporary holiday period, we will sell goods online at the Tokyo Disney Resort app so that you can purchase goods sold at the park at home,” Tokyo Disneyland said on it’s website.
Tokyo Disney Resort has really had an full online shopping option before. In recent years the resort has started offering online purchases through their official app, but you had to have visited the park on that day and your items must have been bought before 11:00pm that same day.
To purchase goods you must download the Tokyo Disney Resort app on your smartphone and be logged in with a Disney account. Only up to 3 items can be purchased per person per day and unfortunately shipping is only available within Japan.

The end date for online shopping will be announced as soon as the park restart date is decided However, they advise that it may be suspended or terminated without notice depending on the situation.
