The Gran Fiesta Tour Starring The Three Caballeros at EPCOT is now closed for refurbishment and the boat ride has been mostly drained of water.
Gran Fiesta Tour Refurbishment
The sign for the attraction outside the Mexico Pavilion has been covered with a black tarp.
Inside the pavilion, an A-frame sign informs guests the attraction is closed. It has been closed since Monday, January 6, and is expected to reopen on March 15, 2025.
Cast Members had some games set up outside the ride entrance to entertain guests.
Just a few inches of water remain in the visible part of the ride track. Pipes, prop supports, and the walls of the track were exposed.
We could see the lights on further inside the attraction. The rest of the water might be drained over the next few days, so crews can thoroughly clean the track.
The Gran Fiesta Tour Starring The Three Caballeros is a slow-moving boat ride through Mexico. Guests follow Panchito and José Carioca of The Three Caballeros as they search for fellow band member Donald Duck. The original boat ride was called El Rio del Tiempo, taking guests through the history of Mexico. It became the Gran Fiesta Tour with the addition of the Three Caballeros in 2007.
