Expect phased closings to begin in around six weeks or so.

Me clinging onto TriceraTop Spin:

The Marni has seen his shadow!!

I will bet the house that this is not the reason.

I mean, what other reason could it be? I've heard they are a nightmare to maintain from a friend that worked on them.

If it was me...
Phase 1: Cut out carnival games
Phase 2: looses gift shop and Triceratops
Phase 3: looses Bone yard
Finally Phase 4: the rest of the land

Or just shut the whole mess down asap and let them get in there and get things rolling... They can completely block that entire area pretty easily for complete and full construction access and a minimum of walls.

And let the park go down to 4 rides for 2+ years? Dino and the restaurant don't need nearly as long as Enchanto to build

the only fun thing to do over there nowadays is the bone yard. wish that could've been spared the chopping block.

Dinosaur was pretty fun last week. The Carnotaurus was even moving properly/fully!

Well, he knows he needs to get the hell out of Dodge. The time for standing in place has passed.

From the lost media twitter account: a look at new concept art of the excavator, or “go coaster dig” as it is called here in dinoland.

It should either be staggered closing or staggered opening to reduce the total amount of downtime. Pick your poison. The IJ and village corridor is just a re-skinning of existing structures and shouldn't logically take as long to complete as Encanto, plus the Encanto site is isolated in a way that keeping the rest operational won't slow down progress.

Do I panic buy Dinoland merch now before the FOMO market kicks in?

The $2 VHS tape I found of DINOSAUR at Goodwill today is about to become my retirement fund

I would assume they can close a lot without much hoopla, but I'm curious how much notice they'll give the public for something like Triceratop Spin before it closes

Previous comments made me hope Dinosaur would be open for my upcoming May trip... Should I panic?

I don’t think many reputable sources have implied it would be open by May. I wouldn’t expect Dinosaur to survive past January/February 25.

I could've sworn I saw some relatively reputable "end of 2025" posts, with ITTBAB and maybe the other elements of Dinoland leaving earlier.

BTW, you need to update your profile pic to show Jock Lindsey hanging with Indy.
ETA: but wait until you can get another picture on my couch.

Only if Indy will cooperate and get in the dang hat. Toy snake for Jock?
