Work Continues on Pete’s Silly Sideshow at Magic Kingdom

Extensive refurbishment is currently underway at Pete’s Silly Sideshow in Magic Kingdom’s Storybook Circus. The tent structure has been surrounded in themed scrims designed to mimic its red and gold vertical striping.

We previously spotted many obvious wear and tear issues to the tent structure, which are thankfully being addressed during this refurbishment.

The top of the tent has been completely removed, revealing the steel structure underneath.

Disney has not announced a reopening date for the attraction yet. In the meantime, the characters usually found inside the tent have been relocated to other areas in the Magic Kingdom. We recently caught up with Goofy, Minnie, Donald and Daisy at Storybook Circus.
