Kali River Rapids at Disney’s Animal Kingdom will be down for refurbishment starting January 7th, 2019. January is a popular time to close the attraction due to low attendance on the ride thanks to typically colder weather. 

The refurbishment will last until March 22nd, 2019, opening to guests on March 23rd. 

Kali River Rapids joins Peter Pans Flight and the Tomorrowland Speedway as early 2019 refurbishments.
