  • Disney World Plans to Reopen One Water Park in March After Year-Long Covid-19 Closure

    Disney World Plans to Reopen One Water Park in March After Year-Long Covid-19 Closure

    You may be able to make a splash in Disney World this coming spring break as the resort plans to reopen at least on of it’s water parks in March.

    “While Disney’s Blizzard Beach water park and Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon water park remain closed at this time, pending government approvals, we currently plan to reopen one of the two Disney water parks on March 7, 2021,” reads a message posted to the Disney World website in an update on the “Know Before You Go” page.

    Disney Park acknowledged, however, that this proposed reopening date may be subject to change amid an uncertain future.

    “We will continue to monitor the constantly changing environment and its impact on the state of Florida as we find the right time to welcome back even more of our Guests and Cast Members,” officials said.

    Disney World shut down in mid-March soon after the coronavirus outbreak was declared a global pandemic and reopened in July at reduced capacity and with enhanced health and safety protocol in the fight against COVID-19.

    Disneyland in California remains closed until further notice, however Gov. Gavin Newsom suggested earlier this week that an announcement on the reopening of theme parks in the Golden State was imminent.
