Final Weekend for DINOSAUR at Animal Kingdom, Last Day to Ride Is Feb. 1

The closure clears space for Disney’s 2027 Tropical Americas expansion with Encanto plus a new Indiana Jones attraction.

Overview

  • Disney confirms DINOSAUR and Restaurantosaurus will close permanently on February 2, with February 1 as the final day of operation.
  • Final-day schedule is set for February 1: Early Theme Park Entry at 7:30 a.m. and regular hours from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., per WDWMAGIC.
  • Farewell crowds have surged, with DINOSAUR recording the park’s longest wait on January 27 at roughly 50 minutes, surpassing Flight of Passage.
  • Disney PhotoPass photographers are positioned outside the attraction, including at the Aladar statue, to capture last-chance photos.
