Disneyland this week temporarily closed five attractions as the park prepares for next week's celebrity-studded premiere of the upcoming "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" movie.

Crews are building a screen and seating along Rivers of America for the outdoor viewing May 7 of "Pirates of the Caribbean – On Stranger Tides" for celebrities, invited guests and ticket holders. The screening follows "black" carpet arrivals along Main Street U.S.A.

The attractions were shut down Monday and will stay closed for about three weeks. Crews will dismantle the equipment after the movie premiere.

The closed features are: Sailing Ship Columbia, Mark Twain Riverboat, Tom Sawyer's Island, Davy Crockett's Explorer Canoes and the Fantasmic! show.

The attractions are set to reopen May 12. The Fantasmic! show will resume May 14, said David Gill, a Disneyland Resort spokesman.

The latest movie is the fourth installment in the series based on Disneyland's Pirates of the Caribbean ride, which is near the screening area. The film debuts in theaters May 20. Disneyland also hosted the three previous movie premieres and celebrity arrivals, including actor Johnny Depp who plays Capt. Jack Sparrow.

Tickets are sold out, but general visitors can try to get spots along the carpet on Main Street U.S.A. to see the stars. Disneyland will have restricted hours Saturday: 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. for regular park goers.
