Update: We now have an official closing date for the DINOSAUR ride at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Dinosaur will permanently close in February 2026, meaning guests only have a few months left to ride.
You may remember the Dinoland Carnival area closed in early 2025. That area consisted of Triceratop Spin, Fossil Fuel Games, and Chester & Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures. These closures are taking place as Disney prepares to make way for the Tropical Americas retheming of the land.
