Universal Orlando Resort is closing several attractions in mid-January at Universal Studios Florida to make room for something new.

In a Tweet this week, Universal said it "will soon begin work on bringing exciting new family entertainment to Universal Studios Florida that will immerse guests in the adventures of beloved animated characters."

As a result, Fievel's Playland, Woody Woodpecker's Nuthouse Coaster, Curious George Goes to Town, DreamWorks Destination and Shrek and Donkey's Meet & Greet will close.

Their last day in operation will be Jan. 15.

Nearby, E.T. Adventure, Animal Actors on Location!, SpongeBob StorePants (including meet and greets) and KidZone Pizza Company will remain open.

Universal said more details about the area are forthcoming.
