All of DinoLand U.S.A. Will Go Down For the Count on February 2, 2026
As DinoLand transforms into the Tropical Americas, we’ve already seen the closures of Triceratop Spin, Primeval Whirl, Fossil Fun Games, and just today, the Boneyard. If you’re planning a last ride on DINOSAUR, get your trip plans in place. Disney has now announced that the rest of DinoLand U.S.A. will close on February 2, 2026. The last day to ride DINOSAUR or dine in Restauratosaurus will be February 1, 2026.
If you’re just catching up, DinoLand U.S.A. is becoming a Tropical Americas-themed land, leaving behind its Cretaceous-focused past for a new life as Pueblo Esperanza. Pueblo Esperanza is envisioned as a small village in the Tropical Americas, featuring rides, dining, and of course, we’re sure there will be some shopping too. The entrance to Pueblo Esperanza will be in the same place as the entrance to DinoLand, but when you pass through you’ll find a new central gathering area with a fountain.

A carousel, the “work of a local woodcarver” will help bring this entrance area to life.

Pueblo Esperanza will also feature two new headliner attractions. The first will be themed to Indiana Jones. There is an Indiana Jones ride at Disneyland, but Disney has confirmed that the version in Tropical Americas will have a different story.

The second major attraction in Pueblo Esperanza will be a family-friendly dark ride themed to Encanto. The exterior will recreate the Madrigal Family Casita.

In the ride, you’ll embark on an adventure which – according to the concept art below – will at least include a visit to Antonio’s room.

Disney has also announced a play area to replace The Boneyard, and a new Quick Service hacienda that will take the place of Restaurantosaurus.

Tropical Americas is scheduled to open in 2027. Want to dive into even more details? Check out Len’s article analyzing the construction permits!
