Aquatopia Closes After 25 Years at Tokyo DisneySea

Oriental Land Company’s long-range Port Discovery reimagining prompted the shutdown, leaving the attraction’s site without a confirmed replacement.

Overview

  • The attraction, which closed Monday, September 14, 2026, finished a 25-year run and was marked by Tokyo Disney Resort posts showing cast members holding farewell signs.
  • Aquatopia was a unique, trackless water-surface ride that used shallow pools to make three-seat hydro‑glider vehicles appear to float and spin unpredictably.
  • The ride’s traditional configuration ended on June 30, 2026, and a summer “Get Soaked” water version ran from July through its final day to extend guest access.
  • Tokyo Disney Resort announced Aquatopia’s permanent closure in April as part of Oriental Land Company’s broad Port Discovery reimagining and the company released concept art in 2025 showing a redesigned area that omits the ride.
  • No specific replacement or detailed plan for Aquatopia’s footprint has been confirmed and the closure signals a larger, multi-year reshaping of Tokyo DisneySea that fans and staff are watching closely.
