New Commercial

Disney released the first 50th anniversary commercial at the end of May with many Easter Eggs!

In that commercial, it started with Cinderella Castle striking midnight and a special file cabinet drawer named “50th Magic” that released pixie dust throughout all four parks. It shows what each park icon will look like. You can see a preview for those HERE as well.

The newest commercial has some of the same scenes but we now have a bit more insight into the new Disney Enchantment show. At the end you see a clip of Main Street and Cinderella Castle lit up with purple and blue fireworks exploding in the back. You can also see individual fireworks blast straight up in a row.

Then, Mickey and Minnie can be seen gazing at the fireworks. You can see the Castle is lit up as well on the turrets. Check out the full commercial below:

Disney Enchantment will run for at least 18 months beginning October 1, 2021. There is talk that Happily Ever After will be retired and Disney Enchantment may run past the celebration period. Disney has not officially announced the retirement of Happily Ever After.

Hopefully the 50th celebration will be able to go on. With Florida having 4 times the national average of covid cases right now.....I think we are headed back to covid restrictions
