Popular Spinner, Gift Shop, and Carnival Games in Dinoland USA to Permanently Close in Eary 2025
It’s official-official. Disney has begun to post notices for attraction and gift shop closures in Dinoland, USA, at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. You may remember that the Tropical Americas-themed land was officially announced at this year’s D23 Ultimate Fan Event. It is to replace the former Dinoland, USA. Guests will still have time to experience these attractions. However, it appears the primary “carnival” area of Dinoland will close in early 2025.
Here’s what we know so far:
TriceraTop Spin
TriceraTop Spin will close permanently on January 13, 2025, to make way for the Tropical Americas coming to Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park in 2027.
Chester & Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures
Chester & Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures will close permanently on January 13, 2025, to make way for the Tropical Americas coming to Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park in 2027.
Fossil Fun Games
Fossil Fun Games will close permanently on January 13, 2025, to make way for the Tropical Americas coming to Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park in 2027.
If you visit Walt Disney World between now and January 13th, make sure to pay your respects to these soon-to-be-extinct attractions and the charming gift shop that is Chester & Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures. In case you missed it, we also posted a notice of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad closing for a major refurbishment in early 2025. For more on what to expect in the coming years, we have a list of what was announced at this year’s D23 Expo.
