Disneyland Resort has announced the upcoming closure of Toy Story Midway Mania, an interactive attraction at Disney California Adventure Park. The Southern California Disney park has not confirmed a reopening date for the ride, leaving countless guests in limbo.

Toy Story Midway Mania Closure

On February 23, Disneyland Resort updated its official operational calendar to reflect that Toy Story Midway Mania will close indefinitely on April 6, 2026. The Southern California Disney destination hasn’t said when the refurbishment will be complete, and the park’s posted schedule only goes through April 6.

Disneyland Resort updated the Pixar Pier attraction as part of its 70th anniversary celebrations in May 2025. The update included holographic sticker targets and digital graphics. It’s scheduled to end on August 9, 2026, so the themed decorations will likely stick around even after the refurbishment that begins on April 6.

Toy Story 5 premieres in theatres on June 19, 2026, so Disneyland Resort may be updating Toy Story Midway Mania to celebrate the film. However, Disney has not confirmed this.

Toy Story Midway Mania will be closed beginning April 6, 2026, and Disneyland Resort hasn’t announced a reopening date for the Pixar Pier ride. Nearby attractions, like the Incredicoaster and Pixar Pal-A-Round, will continue operating during the maintenance closure.

The versions of the ride in Toy Story Land at Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World Resort and in American Waterfront at Tokyo DisneySea at Tokyo Disney Resort will continue operating normally. These Disney parks have not announced any updates to their Toy Story (1995) simulator rides.
