Orlando theme parks will start making re-opening presentations to the Orange County Economic Recovery Task Force tomorrow

Orlando Theme ParksNews is being shared online that major theme parks, Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando Resort, and SeaWorld Orlando, will start making re-opening presentations to the Orange County Economic Recovery Task Force tomorrow. With these presentations, they MUST provide a re-opening date.

Mayor Jerry Demings has to sign off on the plans before they can be submitted to Governor Ron DeSantis.

That information was shared by Lauren Seabrook of WFTV.

Hopefully, we will have an opening date for the Orlando Theme Parks very soon!

Be sure to check out the reopening of Disney Springs from earlier today!

SeaWorld Orlando Tested Their Mako Coaster With Masked Riders Today!

Although Disney Springs is set to begin a phased re-opening tomorrow, May 20th, and Universal Orlando’s CityWalk has re-opened to the public, Florida’s major theme parks still remain closed.

No opening dates have been announced for Disney World, Universal Orlando, or SeaWorld Orlando, but SeaWorld appears to already be prepping for guests to return.

The Orlando Sentinel spoke with Dan Leavelle, who was passing by the park earlier this morning. He caught a glimpse of one of the park’s coasters, Mako, racing around the track carrying masked passengers.

The coaster reaches 73 miles per hour and features a 200 foot drop. Leavelle reports he watched for about an hour and through about 30 run-throughs, he didn’t see any masks fall off. Dan Leavelle runs Midway Mayhem and posted a video of the test runs on his YouTube.

A SeaWorld representative confirmed the park was testing the coaster, but did not have any additional information on a re-opening timeline. We will keep you updated as we learn more about SeaWorld, Disney World, and Universal Orlando’s re-opening dates!

Would you ride a coaster if masks were required? Let us know in the comments!
