Disneyland in China has closed, at least temporarily, as the deadly Wuhan coronavirus outbreak continues to spread.
The Shanghai Disneyland announced the closure on Friday in statement posted to its website. “In response to the prevention and control of the disease outbreak and in order to ensure the health and safety of our guests and Cast, Shanghai Disney Resort is temporarily closing Shanghai Disneyland, Disneytown including Walt Disney Grand Theatre and Wishing Star Park, starting January 25, 2020,” the Disney statement said.
“We will continue to carefully monitor the situation and be in close contact with the local government, and we will announce the reopening date upon confirmation.”
The Disney destination said it would assist in refunding tickets for guests who planned trips to Shanghai Disneyland prior to the closure notice.
