Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor to Close at 6 p.m. Some Days

Live now: Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor wait & status
Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor at Magic Kingdom will close early on several days during Thanksgiving week, according to reports published Wednesday, October 28, 2026. The Tomorrowland comedy show, which normally runs until park close, is listed as closing at 6 p.m. on those dates on Disney’s own website, with regular morning opening times unchanged.
As of Wednesday, October 28, the attraction remains on its standard operating schedule outside of the affected Thanksgiving-week dates.
The change is a shortened operating day, not a refurbishment or a closure of the attraction. Reports indicate the show still opens with its usual schedule and simply stops running in the early evening.
The coverage available did not list which specific days of Thanksgiving week are affected.

What’s not confirmed
Disney has not announced a reason for the early closures, and the specific dates were not included in the coverage available. There is no indication of how late Magic Kingdom itself will be open on those nights, or whether other Tomorrowland attractions are affected.
What it means for your trip
- If Laugh Floor is on your list for a Thanksgiving-week Magic Kingdom day, do it before dinner. Treat it as a midday or late-afternoon stop rather than an after-fireworks filler, because a 6 p.m. cutoff removes it from the evening window entirely.
- Confirm the hours on Disney’s site for your exact date before you build the evening. The affected days were not named, so your date may be unaffected.
- Laugh Floor runs about 15 minutes, is fully indoors, and uses Lightning Lane Multi Pass. That makes it one of the easiest air-conditioned sit-downs in Tomorrowland for a stroller break or a reset with small kids — which is exactly why losing the evening slot matters on a crowded holiday day.
- Build your evening around attractions that run to park close instead: the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover, Space Mountain, and Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin all sit within a few steps of the Laugh Floor entrance.
- There is no single rider line and no Rider Switch here, so everyone in your party goes in together. Plan the show for a time when the whole group is up for sitting down.
- SupaPark’s live status alerts flag when a Magic Kingdom attraction goes down or comes back, which is useful on a shortened-hours day when a single downtime can wipe out your only remaining window.
