Space Mountain reopen date announced.
 

Disneyland announced July 15th as the official re-launch date for Space Mountain. Just in time for the 50th, and it's probably a safe bet that there will be a soft openeing before that (yuu think they're going to leave just 2 days to get things running before the 17th?).

It's nice to know a (kind-of) date to go by in my mind. And yeah, that would be retah-ded to open it that soon to the 17th, so I'm hoping that they soft open it sooner. I would have thought it would have been a month before. That would be the pits to have major break-down issues on the 17th. Anyone else remember the first few days of fine rides, such as Splash Mountain? I particularly remember SM (because I was out in CA that summer) and how many times it shut down in the first week, even first month!

OH well...

I'm still looking forward to having that ride, or some semblance of it back.

Oh my god oh my god oh my god! :D So excited now! :cheers:

Heheheheheh, so glad the birthday Space Mountain tradition can continue! It's my favorite ride of the year.

omg. now i have to go out and buy a new outfit. and a jar of Tang.

woohoo!

(and i can finally stop disappointing guests with the november timeline)

First there was the soft opening of Pooh.

Then there was Buzz's soft opening.

Now, we have a soft Space opening.

Kinky. :D

MP published the official press release about this. Here is a LINK.

As I don't know much about "previews" or "soft openings", is there any chance in hell they might have it open June 21-26 for something like that? That's when the fam and I will be there this summer.....

3 weeks before? Probably unlikely, though there might be an outside shot.

I am soo happy!!:D
