50th Anniversary Celebrations

Walt Disney World is gearing up for a big celebration in October! Guests have new firework celebrations to look forward to, EPCOT’s Harmonious show has been revealed, and NEW character costumes and cavalcade!

New Character Sculptures

One of my (Maggie) favorite things at the Magic Kingdom are all of the bronze statues throughout the park. I love seeing Chip ‘n Dale, Cinderella, and of course the partner statue of Mickey and Walt. That has to be my absolute favorite!

Guests are in for a treat beginning October 1st. Disney Parks Blog has shared the following regarding new sculptures that will debut for the anniversary!

“These eight friends will also be featured in special golden character sculptures debuting Oct. 1 at Magic Kingdom Park; in this artist rendering, you can see Mickey and Minnie shining in the sunlight near Cinderella Castle.

There will be 50 characters total in this series of sculptures that will be displayed across all four theme parks.
