Magic Kingdom’s Liberty Square Riverboat will close permanently in July, but before it does, it will open an extra hour early.
According to a sign positioned near the boat launch and the Walt Disney World website, the Liberty Belle will now open at 10:00 a.m. instead of 11:00 a.m. Its hours of operation will be 10:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m. until July 6, when it will close permanently.
These attractions will close to make room for a “Cars” expansion to Frontierland: The Liberty Belle, Rivers of America, and Tom Sawyer Island. Construction won’t begin until a few weeks later. Demolition permits were approved earlier in 2025.
Imagineering is talking with their partners at Walt Disney World to explore ideas on what to do with the Liberty Square Riverboat.
Do you intend to ride on The Liberty Belle before it closes on July 6?
