Disney Releases Which Disney Stores Will Be Closing Around the United States and Canada

Earlier this month, we reported that Disney Store locations would be closing as the company steers towards shopDisney and improving that online shopping experience. Today, we’ve put together a list of Disney Stores that would be closing based on information on their official website.

What’s Happening:

  • The Walt Disney Company is closing 20% of its brick-and-mortar Disney Store locations in North America, according to CNBC. With nearly 300 Disney Store locations worldwide, that percentage is around 60 store locations in North America and the company is evaluating international locations, primarily in Europe.
  • The reason for the closure is a change in consumer behavior, with the pandemic driving more demand to the online Disney Store experience, shopDisney. Improvements to the shopDisney experience will include new connectivity to Disney Parks apps, most notably My Disney Experience for  Walt Disney World and the Disneyland app. shopDisney will also expand its offerings to include more adult apparel collections, streetwear, premium home products and collectibles.
  • It was reported that these closures won’t affect outlet locations or Disney Parks shops.

  • A graphic has appeared on the official Disney Store websites for specific locations that states that that location will be closing on or before March 23rd of this year, in about two weeks or so.
  • We have compiled a list of locations whose page contains this graphic, with stores in both the United States and Canada:
