More Disney Store locations are closing in September.
As Target plans to open more than 100 new Disney shops inside its stores, the Walt Disney Co. is shuttering nearly 60 of its full-size retail locations across the country. The company updated its store locator tool to identify stores closing "on or before" Sept. 15.
Disney announced in March it would close at least 60 Disney stores in North America this year. Nearly 40 stores were included in the first round of closings.
The company said in March that it was reducing the number of stores to focus on its e-commerce business.

"While consumer behavior has shifted toward online shopping, the global pandemic has changed what consumers expect from a retailer,” Stephanie Young, president of consumer products, games and publishing, said in a statement at the time.
After the latest round of closures, about two dozen stores will remain. The closings don't affect more than 600 stores inside Disney theme parks and other locations, including small Disney shops inside Target stores.
“Over the past few years, we’ve been focused on meeting consumers where they are already spending their time, such as the expansion of Disney store shop-in-shops around the world," Young said. "We now plan to create a more flexible, interconnected e-commerce experience that gives consumers easy access to unique, high-quality products across all our franchises.”
Disney officials did not provide an official list of the closures or a new statement and directed USA TODAY to use the store locator tool on its website to find the closing stores.
