Tokyo Disneyland is currently in the process of a massive $400+ million renovation of Space Mountain. To support the work, Space Mountain as we know it will close on July 31, 2024. The attraction is currently scheduled to reopen in 2027. To celebrate the opening-day attraction, Tokyo Disneyland will hold a special event this summer called Celebrating Space Mountain: The Final Ignition! Here are the details:
Celebrating Space Mountain: The Final Ignition!
From April 9th through July 31st, 2024, guests visiting Tokyo Disneyland will be able to enjoy the Celebrating Space Mountain: The Final Ignition! special event. Here’s the announcement from Tokyo Disneyland:
The Space Mountain attraction, which has been a favorite of guests since the Grand Opening of Tokyo Disneyland, will be completely transformed and reopen in 2027. Guests can journey into space one last time with the current version of Space Mountain during this special event.
Disney broke ground on the reimagining back in May 2023 with work mostly taking place in backstage areas behind the attraction. This entirely new Space Mountain attraction will maintain its original concept as an indoor roller coaster, but will have enhanced performance and immersive special effects that will give guests even more thrills on this exciting ride.
Additionally, the new Tomorrowland plaza will express the connection between Earth and the universe, representing an image of a future where humans are in harmony with nature. After dark, the area will draw guests into a spectacular world of light and soundscapes.
