In preparation for Walt Disney World’s 50th Anniversary, all 4 Theme Parks have received extra doses of magical refurbishments. Be sure to check out the new Beacons of Light that will illuminate Spaceship Earth and the newly refurbished Cinderella Castle.

Walt Disney World has also installed 50 golden character sculptures throughout each of the four theme parks. This magical overlay has extended to both transportation and even the Orlando International Airport.

For several months one sweet location, the Main Street Confectionery, was undergoing a refurbishment. Previously the Main Street Cinema housed sweet confections for Guests to purchase while the Main Street Confectionery was closed. This newly vacant location will now be redesigned for this Retro 50th Collection.

According to Disney Parks Blog, “If you’re in the mood for something savory and sweet, you can now personalize your popcorn experience with multiple combinations. Select from four popcorn flavors – caramel, rainbow fruit, buttery, cheddar – and then top it all off with a selection of M&M’S or SKITTLES candies or perhaps even with some chocolate drizzle for an extra sweet treat!”
