Here’s your round-up of October 2022 Disney World refurbishments for closed attractions and resorts.
If you’re planning on visiting Walt Disney World (WDW) in October, you’ll want to know what isn’t going to be up and running during your trip.
But you won’t have to guess what’ll be open and temporarily closed in October! Each month, we compile a list of everything scheduled to undergo refurbishment in the month ahead.
There’s pretty much nothing doing for refurbishments in October 2022! That means you can enjoy Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and all your favorite rides and entertainment without fear of missing out.

October 2022 Disney World Refurbishments
Rides close often for regular service and maintenance, so any unexpected closures will likely only last for a short while. If nothing else, it’s just another excuse to come back and experience the magic again.
