Hong Kong Disneyland to Close Hyperspace Mountain Feb. 24–Late April for ‘Operational Adjustments’

The park cites unspecified work, prompting renewed guest speculation about the ride’s long‑term theme.

Overview

  • Hong Kong Disneyland confirms the Space Mountain installation, currently themed as Hyperspace Mountain, will be unavailable from February 24 until late April 2026.
  • Officials describe the shutdown as for “operational adjustments” and have not detailed the scope or whether changes will be visible at reopening.
  • Visitor speculation about eventually dropping the Star Wars overlay has resurfaced, a conversation that intensified after the unannounced removal of an X‑wing prop in 2025.
  • The move comes as other Space Mountain versions diverge globally, with a permanent Hyperspace overlay in Paris and a full replacement under construction in Tokyo.
  • The closure overlaps with the resort’s 20th‑anniversary offerings and ongoing development plans, including a Stark Expo–themed Spider‑Man attraction, a Pixar entertainment experience near Toy Story Land and World of Frozen, and a walk‑around Olaf debuting in March.
