After September 19, 2013, you will not be able to access the Hollow AND your fairies. No pixie pages, no accounts, no PH website.
According to their FAQ they are closing because Disney is putting more money into newer games and apps. We're guessing they mean Club Penguin and Disney Infinity.
There are tons of rumors going around about the game platform being outdated, viruses eating the game software, a new pixie hollow to be released, etc. None of these are confirmed to be true.
Thanks for explaining Julie .
Maybe they can bring us back when they're done focusing on Club Penguin?

My little brother loves Snow Lullaby and Pinecone Pop. Will they put the minigames on the Disney fairies website or are they going away too?
I hope not. My brother will cry if not. :'(

I am also hoping that #3 is the main reason for the sudden closure of the game, although I doubt that we'll be able to keep anything as far as our current fairies go. But we can create our new ones in their image, and it will be quite good enough for me ^_^ I'm optimistic about this.

I do have a question though...I paid for a one month membership for one of my non-member accounts recently, and was refunded. I paid for an annual membership that I can't use the full year on now...do I get a partial refund? Anyone else in the same boat?

I like animal jam a lot but it'll never be the same as Pixie Hollow.

Rats! I hope #3 is correct, Cornflower!!

I hope they put the mini games on the Disney site too!!
My little brother will cry his little heart out when Toontown closes.

I've been so busy enjoying Pixie Hollow while I can, I forgot to post.

This is totally wrong! I do play Club Penguin, it used to be fun, but ever since they changed it, well, they wrecked their own game! I'm a non-member on there, so all I can do is buy very little items and collect event items. I got dozens of event items on their, and I don't even want to wear most of them.

Disney is just crazy for doing this!!! They just care about money, money, money...
They probably saw how players were saying ''Club Penguin is boring!'' so they decided to put their attention on the game to make it a ''big money source''.

I will be really missing my fairies. I love them sooo much. I'm gonna be hosting parties and small meet-and-greets here so that we can enjoy the hollow while we can.

I was watching Bloomberg West (call it an old people's show if you will!) and they announced Disney cut 175 from their ABC affiliate, "coming off the heels of cutting several hundred jobs at ESPN and Disney's Interactive Studio".

They're not shutting the Hollow down to create a new one. They're shutting it down because they all lost their jobs.
So very disappointing and sad. I've always adored Disney as a company that doesn't aim for record earnings but a brand that serves its customers to the best of their needs.

It's a shame. Treasure the time you have now in the Hollow- it doesn't look like it's coming back, regardless of anything we try to do to stop it.

I honestly hope they do not put the mini games on the site. Those are for the hollow and our fairies! Sorry the thought of it makes me mad.

I knew it! UGH! That makes me so mad! People need jobs! And a lot of us were more than willing to pay to provide those jobs. Always about $$$$ always!

I don't think it's just about money this time, like I mentioned before my boyfriend read an article not two days before the Hollow announcement was made about Flash, and how it is not going to be supported anymore on any browser. The loss of jobs is bad news though

I am hoping HOPING that the outcry will inspire them to build a new Pixie Hollow. I do not expect it to be the same, I do not expect any of our information to be saved and I for SURE do not expect the game we know and love now to come back because of the protests. It simply can't run forever using the programming it has, and it needs a rebuild from the bottom up!

I think they took the problem about Flash and used it as an excuse to cut jobs. They could rebuild it. They could do something wonderful. But I really don't think they will. I think they are just going to close the door and keep Club Penguin around. I am not sure why that one survived, but it could only be a matter of time for it. I know I sound like a super downer, but with the way a lot of companies work I don't see a light at the end of this tunnel.

we pay yearly for each account but don't know about refund status. I expect a refund and to find a new hollow on infinity sometime. They have several games there now!

I saw Infinity on youtube today and it looks great. I hope and can imagine that PH will re-appear there. If so I will really enjoy the enhanced graphics! Gee I hope they do. Pirates and Cars are available besides others. Check and see if you don't think it could happen. Probably not allowed to say yet.
