Vacation Fun Misses Its Reopening Date at Hollywood Studios
Published September 27, 2026
Vacation Fun – An Original Animated Short with Mickey & Minnie reportedly did not reopen on Sunday, September 27, 2026, at Disney’s Hollywood Studios after its planned return from closure. According to reports, Disney had originally announced September 27 as the reopening date following a six-week closure tied to Annual Passholder magnet distribution.
As of Sunday, September 27, the show was not reported to have resumed operation at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The missed reopening matters mostly for guests using Vacation Fun as a low-effort indoor break, not as a headliner attraction.
Vacation Fun is a short theater-style attraction in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, so its closure is unlikely to reshape most park plans the way a major ride outage would. But it can still matter on a hot, rainy, or crowded park day, especially if you were counting on a quick sit-down option between bigger priorities.
The reported closure followed use of the Mickey Shorts Theater space for Annual Passholder magnet distribution. Disney had previously listed September 27 as the expected reopening date after that six-week closure, according to reports.
What we know
- Vacation Fun – An Original Animated Short with Mickey & Minnie — reportedly did not reopen as scheduled on Sunday, September 27, 2026.
- Disney’s Hollywood Studios — the affected park.
- September 27, 2026 — the reported planned reopening date.

What’s not confirmed
Disney has not confirmed a new reopening date for Vacation Fun. Disney has also not confirmed, based on the reported information available, why the attraction did not reopen on its planned September 27 date.
No additional operating schedule, delay length, or replacement plan was included in the report. Until Disney posts or confirms an updated reopening date, treat Vacation Fun as a bonus indoor stop rather than something to build around.
What it means for your trip
Do not rearrange a Hollywood Studios day around this one. Vacation Fun is useful as a short indoor breather, but your bigger planning decisions should still revolve around attractions like Slinky Dog Dash, Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway, Tower of Terror, Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance.
If you were planning to use Vacation Fun as a midday reset, have a backup indoor break in mind. The practical move is to keep your high-demand rides and dining plans intact, then check the attraction’s current status once you are in the park.
