Disney’s Art of Animation Guests Face Playground Closure and Food Court Repairs

Overview

• The Righteous Reef playground in the Finding Nemo area is closed for maintenance through April 28, with work occurring near The Big Blue Pool.
• A ceiling section failed in the Landscape of Flavors food court, prompting Cast Members to close the affected area and redirect diners.
• Repairs are underway with no public completion date, so guests may find reduced seating and longer lines in the operating sections.
• Disney is steering families to the neighboring Pop Century playground as a stand-in, while the pools and the Schoolyard Sprayground remain open on site.
• The resort continues normal lodging and theming operations, yet arrivals this week should plan around one closed play space and constrained dining capacity.
