Fifteen months is a long time for any theme park celebration to run, and Disneyland’s 70th anniversary was no exception. Since it kicked off, guests have watched the Anaheim resort roll out special decorations, unique entertainment, and a rope drop tradition that became a daily highlight for regulars and first time visitors alike. All good things eventually wrap up, though, and this week marks the end of that particular era at Disneyland. Along with the anniversary closing out, the resort is also easing into its usual late summer refurbishment schedule, which means several attractions are about to disappear from the map for a few weeks. Here’s a full breakdown of what just ended, what’s changing, and what it means if you’ve got a Disneyland trip coming up.Credit: DisneyThe 70th Anniversary Celebration Has Wrapped UpCredit: DisneyAs of yesterday, Disneyland’s 70th anniversary celebration has officially come to a close after running for 15 months. The change didn’t take long to show up in the resort’s digital systems either. Theme Park IQ shared the update directly, posting, “Disney has updated the Disneyland Digital Map to remove the final decorations for the 70th, which ended yesterday.”Disney has updated the Disneyland Digital Map to remove the final decorations for the 70th, which ended yesterday. pic.twitter.com/Xk3WEaoFpP— Theme Park IQ (@ThemeParkIQ) August 10, 2026That digital map change reflects a broader shift happening across the resort as Disneyland transitions out of anniversary mode and back into its standard offerings. It’s a subtle but noticeable difference for guests who have grown used to seeing anniversary-themed touches scattered throughout the park over the past year and a quarter.One of the more meaningful signs of the anniversary’s end involves rope drop itself. Matt, who posts as DisneyScoopGuy, captured the moment well, writing, “Now that Disneyland’s 70th anniversary has concluded the Get Your Ears On intro has returned to rope drop for the first time since May 15th, 2025!” For guests who make it a habit to arrive early and watch the park’s opening ceremony, that detail alone marks a genuine return to a pre-anniversary tradition that had been paused for well over a year.Now that Disneyland’s 70th anniversary has concluded the Get Your Ears On intro has returned to rope drop for the first time since May 15th, 2025! https://t.co/tcI2sudNxg pic.twitter.com/0galbX45Pm— Matt (@DisneyScoopGuy) August 10, 2026Six Attractions Are Closing for Seasonal RefurbishmentsCredit: Inside the MagicRight alongside the anniversary wrapping up, Disneyland is heading into its usual late summer refurbishment period, and that means a wave of temporary attraction closures across both Disneyland and Disney California Adventure. Six attractions in total are closing in August for standard seasonal work: Haunted Mansion, Main Street Cinema, Sailing Ship Columbia, Davy Crockett’s Explorer Canoes, Frontierland Shootin’ Exposition, and Pixie Hollow.These six join two attractions that were already closed heading into the month, Silly Symphony Swings and Frontierland Shootin’ Exposition, meaning guests visiting Disneyland Resort in August should expect to encounter several unavailable experiences no matter which park they’re touring that day.Haunted Mansion’s Holiday Transformation BeginsHaunted Mansion in New Orleans Square is closing for refurbishment from August 8 through August 20. This isn’t just routine maintenance, though. Disney is using this window to prepare the attraction for its annual holiday transformation, with the ride set to reopen on August 21 in its seasonal Haunted Mansion Holiday form. Guests hoping to experience the traditional version of the attraction have a narrow window left before the switch happens.Main Street Cinema Closes as the Anniversary EndsMain Street Cinema will be closed from August 10 through August 27, timed closely with the anniversary celebration’s conclusion on August 9. According to MiceChat, the closure is expected to include the removal of the “Last Verse” video, which documents the creation of new lyrics written by the late Disney songwriter Richard Sherman for the It’s a Small World song. For fans who have made a point of watching that particular piece during the anniversary celebration, this closure marks one of the more meaningful farewells tied to the 70th anniversary period.Fantasmic Goes Dark on Select NightsDisneyland’s nighttime spectacular on the Rivers of America, Fantasmic, will be dark on August 24 through 27 and again on August 31 as the show’s daily summer schedule winds down. Guests hoping to catch a performance during this stretch should double check showtimes before planning an evening around it, since the show won’t be running on those specific dates.Rivers of America Traffic Slows Down TooBoth the Sailing Ship Columbia and Davy Crockett’s Explorer Canoes are heading into their own closures this August, which will noticeably reduce traffic on the Rivers of America. The Columbia will be out of service August 3 through 7 and again August 10 through 14. The human powered canoes follow a slightly different schedule, closing August 3 through 6 and August 10 through 13.Pixie Hollow’s Reduced Schedule ContinuesPixie Hollow in Fantasyland, which recently wrapped up a 10 month refurbishment, will be closed on Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout August, specifically on August 4, 6, 11, 13, 18, 20, 25, and 27. Guests hoping to meet characters in that area should plan around those specific closure days rather than assuming the location will be open every day of the week.Frontierland Shootin’ Exposition and Silly Symphony Swings Remain ClosedThe Frontierland Shootin’ Exposition, where guests fire replica buffalo rifles across an Old West themed town, closed back in early July for an extended refurbishment and is expected to remain shuttered through at least early September. Over at Disney California Adventure, the Silly Symphony Swings wave swing in Paradise Gardens has been closed since April for its own seasonal refurbishment and is also expected to stay closed through at least early September.What This Means for Your Next Disneyland TripCredit: DisneyIf you’re planning a Disneyland visit for the back half of August, it’s worth going in with realistic expectations about what will and won’t be available. Between the tail end of anniversary related changes and a genuinely long list of attraction closures, guests touring both parks during this stretch will likely run into more than one unavailable experience over the course of a single visit.For guests specifically hoping to catch the traditional Haunted Mansion before its holiday makeover, the window closes fast, with August 7 being the last realistic day to ride the classic version. Anyone wanting to see Fantasmic should avoid the specific dark dates listed above, and families planning to meet characters at Pixie Hollow should double check whether their visit lands on one of the days it’s closed.None of these closures should derail a well planned trip, but checking Disneyland’s official attraction status page a day or two before your visit is a smart habit heading into this particular stretch of the year. Refurbishment schedules shift occasionally, and a quick check the morning of your trip can help you build a touring plan around what’s actually open rather than what you assumed would be running.Did you make it to Disneyland before the 70th anniversary wrapped up, or are you planning a visit during this refurbishment stretch?
