Disneyland will not reopen as scheduled on July 17, Disney announced Wednesday, citing a lack of guidance from California officials. The announcement comes as the company moves forward with plans to reopen the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida — despite local concern that it could exacerbate the spread of the coronavirus. "The State of California has now indicated that it will not issue theme park reopening guidelines until sometime after July 4," Disney said in a statement. "Given the time required for us to bring thousands of cast members back to work and restart our business, we have no choice but to delay the reopening of our theme parks and resort hotels until we receive approval from government officials." "Once we have a clearer understanding of when guidelines will be released, we expect to be able to communicate a reopening date," the company added. At Disney World in Florida, the company is slated to reopen the first of several theme parks and attractions on July 11 — but the move still requires approval from state officials. Disney parks in both states have been closed since mid-March, costing the company millions in revenue.
