It's a small world - flooding

[OlliePop27]

I just read an article from DL News Today that small world flooded when they tried to refill the plume and the ride will not open for tonight's event. Let's hope this is not significant and it reopens quickly! I can't get the link to work when I post here, but it should show up if you search online.

Here's a bit more behind the scenes info from Mice Chat: https://www.micechat.com/307360-disneyland-news-small-world-holiday-delayed/.

It looks like DL is planning for the ride to be closed AT LEAST through this upcoming weekend, potentially longer. Electrical equipment was shorted out and they do not yet know when the issue will be fixed. The good news is that the lights on the façade and projections are now working, which was not the case when the flood first happened.

On a personal note, I'm also hoping this is resolved sooner then expected. I have never been during the holidays and this ride is one of the main reasons I'm going.

As of now, the DL website lists iasw closed through 11/15. The MiceChat article points out that it's day to day at this point. I also hope it's open by the 16th!

Me too! The 16th is our last day in the parks. I hope to take my 4-year-old grandson on it.

uggh this means we'll miss it. Damn, was looking forward to it.

Awwww man, this is a bummer! I hope it’s not really bad.

 

[Pluto468]

Oh no! I hope they can fix it asap. I wonder if this has happened before?

Sad to hear! We are going this weekend and my mom’s only requests were a ride on Small World and a dole whip.

 

[Juliek8]

Ugh. Today is our last day here and everyone was so excited for small world. They're all going to be so disappointed.

 

[SOCALMouseMommy]

The schedule now showing it to be closed until next Tuesday.

we were on the train yesterday afternoon and there was a large group of people meeting/discussing! Didn’t realize what happened until I read this thread.

Even local news said no reopening date set, so who knows.

Maybe they'll extend the overlay for a little longer in 2022. Magic Key holders can't go until next year anyways, however it's just sad it will be missed by tourists/day ticket guests. Small World Holiday is a great addition.

I was sorta half-listening to the Adventures in Design video about this yesterday while working and I thought it was just Brickey making a joke video Didn't catch on that IASW actually flooded!

I just checked the DL refurbishment calendar and iasw holiday is now listed as closed AT LEAST through Sunday, 11/21. I don't know if this means it will actually be ready to open after the 21st, but this is the latest info I saw online.

Really unfortunate timing considering it's one of the holiday overlay attractions. I'm glad they still light up the outside though. Here's to hoping it'll get fixed ASAP!

 

[Juliek8]

Wow. It must have been bad. Such a bummer. We were just there and it certainly didn't feel like Disneyland at Christmas time without it. I hope it's fixed soon
