The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh has always been a charming highlight of Disneyland Park, offering guests a whimsical ride through the enchanting world of A.A. Milne’s beloved characters. From bouncing along with Tigger to getting lost in Eeyore’s gloomy thicket, this attraction immerses you in the magical adventures of Pooh Bear and his friends.

The attraction closed on May 1, 2024, due to construction and its location in Critter Country, which is being transformed into Bayou Country. Now, Scott Gustin has taken to social media to share that The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh attraction at Disneyland Park is scheduled to reopen tomorrow, Thursday, August 29 at Disneyland Park.

That’s right, after a brief hiatus, our favorite bear and his friends are ready to whisk you away on a delightful journey filled with honey, hugs, and happiness. But that’s not all—Pooh Corner is also reopening on the same day, and there’s a new sweet treat in town: the Blue Honey Pot Apple!

Let’s dive into the details of this heartwarming reopening and what you can expect from the world of Winnie the Pooh at Disneyland Park.

What’s New?

While the attraction itself will retain its classic charm, there might be a few surprises in store as Disney spruces things up for the reopening. Expect to be enchanted by the familiar sights and sounds of the Hundred Acre Wood, with its cozy cottages, lush landscapes, and, of course, plenty of honey pots!

This scrumptious apple is dipped in a blue candy coating that’s as vibrant as Pooh’s sunny disposition and drizzled with a hint of honey. It’s a sweet nod to our favorite bear’s favorite treat and a perfect snack for your visit. Scott Gustin notes:

Disneyland also said a Blue Honey Pot Apple will be available at Pooh Corner when it reopens Aug 29. Pooh Corner is on the right side of the store location and features Hundred Acre Wood merch and sweet treats like Tigger tails.

Magic Kingdom’s Sister Attraction

At Walt Disney World Resort’s Magic Kingdom, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh offers a charmingly similar experience to its Disneyland Park counterpart. Both Disney park attractions invite guests to step into the whimsical world of A.A. Milne’s beloved characters, with a gentle ride through the Hundred Acre Wood.

At Magic Kingdom, it is surely a blustery day! Guests are swept away by a gust of wind with Gopher, Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga and Roo, and Christopher Robin before sliding inside Owl’s House. Bob up and down with Tigger too during a hide-and-seek adventure. Enter a dream world where singing Heffalumps and Woozles spring up and down.

Much like its Disneyland sibling, this attraction celebrates the magic of Winnie the Pooh with immersive scenes, delightful music, and the enchanting storytelling that makes Pooh Bear’s world come to life.
