Overview
- Disneyland Resort confirmed the indoor closure at Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar will now begin on March 2, 2026, two weeks later than first announced.
- The refurbishment is expected to run through spring 2026, with Disney previously indicating a goal to reopen by the 15th anniversary on May 25.
- Outdoor seating will continue operating during the work, and Tangaroa Terrace Tropical Bar & Grill will remain available nearby.
- City permit documents specify replacement of gas tiki torches, an added air conditioner for an electrical room, refreshed show and lighting effects, and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing upgrades.
- Coverage notes the delay gives guests two additional weeks indoors, with some outlets suggesting demand and waits could increase before March 2.
