Mickey holds the keys to Shanghai's Disney Resort - and it takes a "clear" COVID-19 tests for visitors to get out of its gates.
The resort said at 11:39 a.m. local time (03:39 GMT) it would immediately shut the main theme park and surrounding areas including its shopping street until further notice to comply with virus curbs.
The Shanghai government said on its official WeChat account the park was barring people from entering or exiting and that all visitors inside the site would need to await the results of their tests before they could leave.
Despite the lockdown, the Disney park continued to operate rides for visitors stuck inside during the closure on Monday, social media users reported.
The closure marks the latest disruption for the Shanghai Disney Resort, which was shut for over three months during Shanghai's lockdown earlier this year.
