Disneyland Surprise: Beloved Ride Stays Open Longer

Disneyland has announced an extended operational period for the Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sully to the Rescue! attraction, now scheduled to close in 2027. This move is a revision from the earlier planned closure in early 2026. The decision stems from adjustments in the construction sequencing for upcoming park developments.

The Eastern Gateway project, a significant infrastructure improvement, is set to begin construction in fall 2026. This project includes adding approximately 6,000 parking spaces, new shuttle areas, and a pedestrian bridge. The revised timeline for this foundational project allows the Monsters, Inc. ride to continue operating for an additional year.
