As Disney’s Magic Kingdom has closed out the celebration of its 50th anniversary celebration, Mickey and Minnie have officially traded out their iridescent outfits for something a bit more glamorous, all in celebration of the Disney100! This amazing celebration is for 100 years of the Walt Disney Company and all of the memories they have helped create. Disney is bringing this celebration to the parks, two in particular, EPCOT and Disneyland Park. However, we are going to focus on the celebration at Walt Disney World for now. All of the park offerings for Disney100 are a limited time only celebration, be sure to reach out today to a Marvelous Mouse Travels agent to get your next Disney vacation booked to take part of the magic!
The new platinum dress and trouser set modeled by our favorite mouse couple will be showcased at EPCOT later this year. Once there, be sure to capture a moment of magic with the platinum pair, as Mickey and Minnie will be doing character greetings with guests. There has not been an official released date of when they will begin welcoming guests, but we are really looking forward to it!
What Disney trip would be complete without a one of kind light show?! The answer is none! The Company could not be more excited for the announcement of Spaceship Earth’s commemoration of the Disney100. This unprecedented display of colors and lights will be one for the ages. The Show Lighting Team at Walt Disney has drawn inspiration for the spectacle from several sources, including some of our favorite Disney characters and shows, parks, the Company’s history, and even some of their own Disney experiences and memories. Spaceship Earth has been the showpiece for all of EPCOT’s special festivals, the Park’s 40th anniversary, Walt Disney World’s 50th, and now the 100th anniversary of the Walt Disney Company itself. We cannot wait to see this dazzling display fill the sky and brighten the smiles of Disney fan’s of all ages later this year.
Outside of each of the four theme parks you will find the Disney100 commemorative statue. This is the perfect place to grab a selfie to help keep the memories alive. Also a great place to take a selfie this upcoming season will be at the resorts! To help keep the magic alive, characters will be making appearances at resorts around Walt Disney World property. You never know who will pop out around the corner!
