Disney confirms the official reopening date for Typhoon Lagoon

We now have an official date for the reopening of Typhoon Lagoon! Check it out and see if you will be making plans to visit soon.

Reopening of Water Parks

Both Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon remained closed when Disney World reopened last summer. Then, Blizzard Beach reopened in March 2021 just in time for spring break crowds.

Disney announced some some updates to the way things operate to keep safety and health at the forefront of everyone’s experiences. Reduced capacity, temperature screenings, physical distancing markings, and face coverings were required.

Though many of the above safety and health requirements are no longer at the parks, there have been many signs pointing to a possible reopening.

Back in June, Disney World filed some general construction permits for the address where Typhoon Lagoon is located.

In recent months, refurbishment work has continued and preparations are underway. We also saw another clue of a possible reopening date HERE.
