Jellyrolls Dueling Piano Bar
The first major change is the permanent closure of the Jellyrolls Dueling Piano Bar at Disney’s BoardWalk. Set to close its doors on April 19, 2025, Jellyrolls has been a beloved spot for nighttime entertainment featuring talented pianists playing requests from the audience. This closure signals the end of an era, and fans of the venue are encouraged to visit before it closes.

Over at Wilderness Lodge, the Whispering Canyon Cafe will undergo a short refurbishment from May 12 to May 21, 2025. Known for its lively atmosphere and interactive dining experience, any changes are expected to enhance the venue’s charm and service.
Pool Maintenance and Closures
For those staying at Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort, the Fantasia Pool will be closed for routine maintenance from January through April 2025. Additionally, guests at Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club Resorts should note that Stormalong Bay and Shipwreck Pool will be closed from January through June 2025. During these periods, alternative swimming options will be available to ensure guests can still enjoy some splashy fun.
What to Expect During Your Visit
While construction and refurbishments might affect some facilities, Disney is known for its commitment to guest satisfaction. Expect alternative amenities to be available, and perhaps even some surprise magical experiences to make up for any inconveniences.
