Disneyland visitors will experience a handful of closures this summer as popular rides and shows at the California park temporarily shut down for refurbishment.
Two attractions — Pixie Hollow and the well-loved “Fantasmic” show — will have limited operations in May, according to the Disneyland website.
The changes come as other fan favorites are also temporarily closed or scheduled to shut down.
Pirates of the Caribbean is set to close Monday, May 4, and is not expected to reopen until early June, the Orange County Register reported.
