WOC Question Sorta

[aidensmom31]

Can anyone tell me what rides are closed when WOC show is going? Trying to figure this out so I can hit those rides earlier in our day there. Thank you all.

Only 16 more days

Closed: Screamin', the ferris wheel, I think the Zephyr. Not sure about Goofy's Sky School. Toy Story definitely stays open.

Please note that Toy Story is usually open during WOC; however, it does sometimes close.

Sometimes Silly Symphony Swings and Goofy's Sky School will close as well (this might depend on the direction of the wind, I am not sure).

Also, Redwood Creek Challenge Trail closes about 30 minutes before guests are to line up for the second showing of WOC to allow for using it as a line.

Can someone tell me why they close the rides? I don't get it.

Because they need the area dark and (relatively) quiet during the show, and all of those rides have lights that would detract from the visual quality of the projections.

Oh I see, that makes sense. Thank you!

In addition, there are safety issues, mostly related to the size of crowds in the area, but in some cases, if the wind is blowing in the wrong direction, but it can make certain attractions unsafe to operate (it can be far worse than a rain storm for some of the attractions).
