It’s finally here! The 50th Anniversary is today! From a new character cavalcade to nighttime entertainment to food to EVERYTHING ELSE, it’s been a busy day at Disney World.
Now, it’s time to see the debut of the Beacons of Magic, the new 50th Anniversary EARidescent makeovers for the park icons!
Magic Kingdom
At Magic Kingdom, Cinderella Castle got the EARidescent treatment!
It’s so shimmery in blues, golds, pinks, and silvers.
EPCOT
At EPCOT, Spaceship Earth is lit up for the 50th! Spaceship Earth now has points of light on it. These use innovative technology to project colors and shapes onto the icon.
We’re pretty sure this is the best glow-up (LITERALLY) we’ve seen in a long time at Disney World!
It’s just STUNNING. Here’s the lighting in action:

Yes, we did say “OoOoOoOh” when we first saw it!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
At Hollywood Studios, Tower of Terror became the Beacon of Magic!
If you look closely, you will even see a few “people” dancing in the hotel.
This is another breathtaking transformation!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
Finally, Animal Kingdom’s Tree of Life is lighting up the night! And it’s SO pretty!
Seriously, we can’t stop looking at it! we love all of the colors. The tree really pops now!

We were there last wk and Epcot was our fav. It has a show mode that changes colors which was sooo beautiful. I couldn’t stop looking at it.
