Tokyo Disneyland reopened on April 15, 2011, donating the first ¥300 of each entry fee to the Japanese Red Cross. The Disney Ambassador Hotel and Tokyo Disneyland Hotel were also scheduled to reopen April 15, with Cirque du Soleil's ZED resuming April 23, 2011. Tokyo DisneySea and its hotel, the Tokyo DisneySea Hotel Mira Costa, remained closed until further notice. [4] It is estimated that the resort lost more than $400 million in profits during the five weeks of closure, the first extended shutdown in its history. [5]

On April 28, 2011, just ahead of the start of the Golden Week string of public holidays, Tokyo DisneySea reopened. The date also coincided with the planned debuts of both Fantasmic! and the Mickey and Friends' Greeting Trails meet-and-greet area. Despite the Resort's full reopening, the Tokyo DisneySea 10th Anniversary celebration planned for September 2011 was postponed. [6]
