New page

For every classic that survives, the Disney parks have retired an attraction that somebody loved. Rides close for many reasons — a sponsor departs, a film fades, a new land needs the ground, or the machinery simply becomes too costly to keep — and two entire Walt Disney World parks, [[Discovery Island (theme park)|Discovery Island]] and [[River Country]], have closed for good. This list collects the defunct attractions that have articles on this wiki, organised by park or resort area. Years are given only where they could be verified against the attraction's own article; where the years could not be verified, the entry appears without them.

== Magic Kingdom ==
* [[20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (attraction)]] (1971–1994) — the submarine voyage across the Fantasyland lagoon, closed for high running costs and never replaced in kind.
* [[Skyway (Disney)]] (1971–1999) — the gondola lift between Fantasyland and Tomorrowland.
* [[Splash Mountain]] (1992–2023) — the ''Song of the South'' log flume in Frontierland, rethemed as [[Tiana's Bayou Adventure]].
* [[Wishes: A Magical Gathering of Disney Dreams]] (2003–2017) — the long-running fireworks show over [[Cinderella Castle]], succeeded by [[Happily Ever After (fireworks show)]].

== EPCOT ==
* [[Horizons (EPCOT)]] (1983–1999) — the omnimover journey through twenty-first-century life, demolished for [[Mission: SPACE]].
* [[Maelstrom (ride)]] (1988–2014) — the [[Norway Pavilion]] boat ride, rethemed as [[Frozen Ever After]].
* [[Ellen's Energy Adventure]] (1996–2017) — the Universe of Energy's travelling-theatre show, replaced by [[Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind]].
* [[IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth]] (1999–2019) — the World Showcase Lagoon nighttime spectacular that ran for almost twenty years.
* [[Harmonious]] (2021–2023) — the fiftieth-anniversary lagoon show, withdrawn after a short run and succeeded by [[Luminous The Symphony of Us]].

== Disney's Hollywood Studios ==
* [[The Great Movie Ride]] (1989–2017) — the park's opening-day centrepiece inside the Chinese Theatre, replaced by [[Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway]].

== Disney's Animal Kingdom ==
* [[It's Tough to Be a Bug!]] (1998–2025) — the 3D film inside the [[Tree of Life]], succeeded by [[Zootopia: Better Zoogether!]].
* [[DINOSAUR]] — the Countdown to Extinction jeep ride through the Cretaceous in [[DinoLand U.S.A.]].

== Disneyland ==
* [[Skyway (Disney)]] (1956–1994) — the original gondola lift, whose cabins passed through the [[Matterhorn Bobsleds|Matterhorn]] after 1959; the same article covers the Florida and Tokyo versions listed elsewhere on this page.

== Disney California Adventure ==
* [[Red Car Trolley]] (2012–2025) — the Pacific Electric trolley replicas that ran along [[Buena Vista Street]] and through [[Hollywood Land]].

== Walt Disney World — resort-wide and closed parks ==
* [[Discovery Island (theme park)]] (1974–1999) — the zoological park on an island in Bay Lake, closed when its animals moved to [[Disney's Animal Kingdom]]; one of only two Disney parks to close permanently.
* [[River Country]] (1976–2001) — the resort's first water park, a themed swimming hole beside [[Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground]]; the second of the two permanently closed parks.
* [[DisneyQuest]] (1998–2017) — the five-storey indoor interactive theme park at what is now [[Disney Springs]].
* [[Disney's Magical Express]] (2005–2022) — the complimentary airport coach and luggage service, withdrawn as third-party operators took over the route.
* [[Pleasure Island (Walt Disney World)]] — the nightclub district of Downtown Disney, closed as the area was rebuilt into [[Disney Springs]].
