Following the news that Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon water park will be reopening, Disney just confirmed that its Blizzard Beach water park would be shutting down for a refurbishment. Disney will shut down Blizzard Beach on March 19 to make way for a refurbishment.
There is no reopening date given on the official theme park website, meaning the closure is indefinite. Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon remained closed for years back when it closed in 2020, so it’s anyone’s guess as to when Blizzard Beach will return.
