:o Have just heard ratatouille will be closed from August for 4 months, if true does anybody know when in August ?
No I haven´t heard about it but the last time I was in Paris, last October, the floor of the ride was horrible the smoothness was gone hopefully the redo the surface.
Just found tweet @ED92live it's true !
Yeah they need to close it for major work to fix the floor. It says August to December but no current date given. The closures calendar currently goes up to mid August without it being mentioned although that's not to say it won't be added.
Possible it'll be the from the last week when Summer season is drawing to a close? Would make sense but I suppose it depends on how urgent the work is.
Yep, announced last night.ill be there on 22nd Aug 😣 Not looking good for me..
Damn, I was really hoping to have a go on it when I visit for the first time in November!
Would this be the first long refurb for the attraction? Can't remember it having one before. Guess it needs doing, and perhaps whilst they're at it, they can add/test any new effects planned for the EPCOT version.
Hmm - its a pretty new attraction, if the floor is that damaged already that it needs a major 4 month refurb, that's a pretty big design flaw... hope they can work out a good proper solution - especially as they are planning on bringing it to Florida as well!

Is this an official closure list? If so, do you have a link?

Yeah the DLP website has an overall list of closures and a day by day one with closures and park times. The day by day one currently goes up to Aug 20th and can be found here (http://www.disneylandparis.co.uk/calendars/park-hours/).

Perfect, thank you.
Just checked the Disney site and ....
Ratatouille closes on August 27th - Bank Holiday Monday.
So I might just brave the queues during the week before to get my first ride!!
We will be there and gone before closing day. Worked out for us!
Yep, closing 27th August
The closing of Ratatouille has been postponed, as reported by ED92 on Twitter (https://twitter.com/ED92live).
The extensive refurbishment (mainly to fix the floors) of "Ratatouille: The Aventure" has been postponed.
The attraction will now only close from Monday October 2 to Friday October 12.
Rode it on Tuesday and whilst the floor is bumpy it's certainly not unrideable and considering the length of the main queue it was a very smart move to push this back to a quieter period. Hopefully the floor can be fixed and reinforced better so this doesn't happen again.

This is good news for our trip! Makes a lot of sense to close it at a quieter period, it's so popular.
It is too bad, really. Going from 4 months down to just a week means the work done will probably only be minor. No new effects.
