Disney World kicked off the World’s Most Magical Celebration on October 1, 2021. Doesn’t that seem like forever ago? The celebration lasted a full 18 months and comes to a close in just a few days.

While we are unsure of the fates of the 50th anniversary cavalcade and the golden statues, Disney has already begun removing other aspects of the celebration. We know they filed a permit to change Cinderella Castle, although it appears the pink and blue colors will remain.

Another subtle, yet big, change is the park maps.

Disney recently changed the parks at Animal Kingdom to reflect the fact that the 50th anniversary is no longer taking place (despite it having a full week left to go). You can read Donna’s story HERE.

In addition, Disney has also set out new parks over at Hollywood Studios. No mention of the 50th anniversary is included in these park maps. There is important information about nighttime shows like Disney Movie Magic, World of Animation, and Fantasmic!

The park maps even mention Muppet*Vision 3D and Pandora jewelry in Legends of Hollywood.

It is good timing for Disney World to set out these new maps at Hollywood Studios because Roundup Rodeo BBQ opens in Toy Story Land TODAY! We will have full reviews soon, but in the meantime Disney has listed the new restaurant in the park map.

“Enjoy delicious family-style barbecue fare while surrounded by a kaleidoscope of toys, games, and playlets that Andy has brought together to create his own one-of-a-kind rodeo.”

Be sure to check out the full menu HERE along with pricing HERE.
