UPDATE (July 12th): Disney World has stated that Jungle Cruise will reopen in time for the 2024 Holiday Season.
Following the news that the Jungle Cruise will be closed starting August 27th at Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World has updated its website to remove the attraction from the upcoming seasonal event guides.
Jungle Cruise was previously listed as an attraction that would be open during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, but with a late August closure for refurbishment, Disney is no longer listing the attraction as available during the event. It’s possible, and even likely, that it will be offered for Not-So-Scary event dates before August 27th, but it will then likely be closed for the remainder of the event dates.
Furthermore, Disney World has removed the Jingle Cruise from the Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party attraction lineup. The holiday overlay for Jungle Cruise is still listed as an enhanced attraction offering as of press time, but the attraction is not listed as available in the full attraction list on the same page. BlogMickey.com has reached out to Walt Disney World for clarification, and we’ll keep you updated should Disney offer more information.
If the website is correct, and Jingle Cruise is not available, it could indicate that the Jungle Cruise attraction will be closed through the end of 2024. Technically, Disney World has yet to officially announce the Jungle Cruise refurbishment is even happening, much less an end date.

I wonder if they will add a robot skipper.
