Even though there were no phase closures at all at Walt Disney World, the first one of this holiday season has happened on New Year’s Eve.
As of 11:40 a.m. on Dec. 31, 2016, Magic Kingdom had reached a Phase B closure. For those not aware, here is the explanation of a Phase B closure:
Phase B
No admission of guests with one day tickets, and no re-entering or crossing over from another park unless they have one of the following:
- WDW Resort Guests, including The Four Seasons Resort, Swan, Dolphin or Shades of Green, Hotel Plaza Boulevard hotels arriving by bus (Best Western Lake Buena Vista Resort Hotel, The Buena Vista Palace, DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Hotel, B Resort, Wyndham Lake Buena Vista Resort, Hilton), Golden Oak residents and guests.
- WDW Premier Passport, Annual & Premium Passholders
- Guests with Park Hopper tickets re-entering or crossing over from another WDW Theme Park
- Guests with Memory Maker
- Guests with dining reservations
- Magic Kingdom Guests with reservations for Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, Harmony Barber Shop or The Pirates League.

All other phase closures are explained at this link.
As of now, any Guests with one-day park tickets to Magic Kingdom can use them for entry at the other three parks – Epcot, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Those Guests arriving to Magic Kingdom during the Phase B closure are also receiving a free parking ticket for another park and free dining at a quick-service restaurant at another park for up to six Guests.

Glad I went last month. I would have been extremely pissed. I go on one vacation a year and they’re picking who can go in and who can’t. Bad enough the the Harry potter ride was closed at universal. Last year hi was closed. At least it was closed to everyone!
Why is Disney closed? I am confused.
Never said it was closed. Magic Kingdom was closed to SOME Guests due to reaching a certain level of capacity.
