The beginning of October is the opening of a new fiscal year for Disney and that always means change will occur. Some of those changes were expected with Mickey and Minnie’s Surprise Celebration coming to a close on September 30, but there are a few that may take you by surprise. Here’s the details:
Magic Kingdom
We know that Mickey and Minnie will revert back to their old costumes and old way of meeting. Minnie should return to Pete’s Silly Sideshow and Pluto should move back to the flagpole. The daily popup characters at the flagpole will cease on September 30 as well.
The Muppets Present Great Moments in American History (last day October 6) puppet show next to the Hall of Presidents will be cut as well as the walk around entertainment known as the Royal Majesty Makers (Last day October 5). ‘Move It! Shake It! Dance and Play It!‘ Street Party will reduce from three shows to two shows per day and will revert to the old show prior to the surprise celebration.
Hollywood Studios
We already knew that the Incredibles Super Shindig dance party would close with the surprise celebration, but DJs Ready! Set! Party Time! Dance Party will also close soon. The Lightning McQueen Racing Academy and cars meets will remain.
I’ve heard rumblings that Mike and Sulley could be removed as well, but that is unconfirmed at this time. Edna Mode is safe.
Animal Kingdom
The Hakuna Matata dance party will end as we expected with the surprise celebration.
All cuts will take place between September 30 and October 6, 2019. I’ll keep you informed as things develop.
Disney never officially states that entertainment acts are closing, so we always have to take these with a grain of salt until it actually occurs.

Music and entertainment evolve and change with the years. Entertainers who have honed specific skills and have entertained for years, get tired of doing the same old thing and long for new material (ask any musician how they feel about weddings and Pachebel's Canon in D). Sometimes that means hiring new people to continue on...other times it means retiring the material and finding something entirely new. Don't be surprised if these are not so much eliminations as they are a movement from one thing to another.

Disney already got in trouble for inflating revenue and I am sure too much money is flowing up stream with nothing to show for it. I am so angry that they have out priced the common person. Even Florida residents. Look at the ads for tickets, no price, just the monthly payment! oh and that is after the deposit. Walt would turn over in his grave with the management salaries, and how the cast members are not being paid for their roles in bringing the magic to the park. There are a good many that still have Disney in their heart, but some definitely feel the resentment of under paid and kept in part time positions so not to get benefits. Sad not to take care of those who take care of you. How much money in profits is enough. Corporations always want to increase profits every year, but where does that stop? How much do they need to be profitable? Does the increase in expenses match what they want in the increase in profit margin? GREED will be Disney’s damnation. Once they get to a certain point people will stop going due to cost. I know those are not the people Disney want anyway. They want the people that come in on the whole package. Hotel stays and multiple short term ticket packages. Us that utilize the annual pass are not as profitable and they want to price us out too, (note the recent annual pass increase). We are the base of this multilevel money making pyramid. Once it crumbles how are they going to guarantee that set and stable income if we decide enough is enough?
