Emerging from Global COVID-19 Pandemic with the rest of the world, Disney announced tonight that Hong Kong Disneyland will be the second Disney park to open following the extended closure due to coronavirus.
“At Hong Kong Disneyland Resort, it is my privilege to work with an incredible team of cast members to help share the magic with our guests. Over the past few months, we’ve been moved by your understanding and patience as we navigated an unprecedented closure. During this time, we took measured steps to maintain guest offerings at our hotels, with adjusted levels of service, and in May we reopened additional dining experiences,” wrote Stephanie Young, Managing Director for Hong Kong Disneyland, on the Disney Parks Blog.
“Today, as our surrounding community takes steps towards recovery, I’m thrilled to announce that Hong Kong Disneyland will also reopen to the public on June 18.”
We are proud to be part of the Hong Kong community, which has worked hard and shown fortitude in how it has handled the pandemic. As we carefully welcome guests back to our park, we will draw on the learnings from the recent reopening of Shanghai Disney Resort and Disney Springs at Walt Disney World. Similarly, we will also implement new and enhanced health and safety measures following the guidance of our local government and health care officials.”
Young touted the the recent blog post from the Disney Parks, Experiences and Products Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Pamela Hymel to learn more about Hong Kong Disneyland’s approach to reopening.. While some things will look and feel different than before, the magic continues and Disney is excited to once again share their park with guests because the magic begins with them.
During this initial reopening phase, the park will open with limited attendance. The park will implement social distancing requirements in queues, restaurants, attraction vehicles and at other facilities throughout the park, and will increase the frequency of sanitization and disinfection in high-guest contact areas.
As Hong Kong becomes the second Disney park to reopen, the rest of the Disney Parks family around the world continues to believe in magic and prepare for their own reopening moments.
Hong Kong Disneyland is also thrilled to share a sneak peek of magic in the making as the park enters into the final stage of their Castle of Magical Dreams transformation, which will be a magnificent centerpiece of the park.
