The work has begun on the massive transformation coming to Cinderella Castle!

While we have started to notice the construction happening around the castle, we also saw some changes on Disney’s website to indicate an impact on the live stage show that happens in front of the castle!

Beginning on March 9, 2020, the number of daily showtimes for Mickey’s Royal Friendship Faire will be reduced from five shows daily to three.

On Disney’s website, the shows happening as of March 9 are in the evening: 5:15 PM, 6:30 PM, and 7:30 PM. So, adjust your schedules accordingly! It looks like, as of now, there will be no morning or early afternoon performances!

Disney reports that the transformation on Cinderella Castle will be complete sometime this summer. Hopefully, that means we see a return to a full 5-show schedule for Royal Friendship Faire!

We will continue to keep you posted on not only the showtimes but on the castle renovation as well.
