Hong Kong Disneyland has announced that it will be closed again in response to an increase in coronavirus infections in the region. The park will close on July 15, with no reopening date set.
“As required by the government and health authorities in line with prevention efforts taking place in Hong Kong, Hong Kong’s Disneyland Park will be temporarily closed,” Disney said on the theme park’s website. “We are in contact with the health authorities and the government about the situation.”
Disneyland hotels in Hong Kong will remain open with health and safety measures, a Disney Parks spokesman said in an emailed statement.
The Hong Kong government tightened its orientation to social distancing late last week, with new rules in effect from July 11 to 24. The move came after Hong Kong recorded 31 new cases of coronavirus in which patients had no travel history during the incubation period, with some unaware of the source of infection.
The Hong Kong government reported the region’s eighth death of COVID-19 on Sunday.
Hong Kong Disney closed in late January, and reopened on June 18 with reduced capacity, better health measures and a new reserve system.
