Picture this: you’re meditating on a yoga mat in front of a lit-up Cinderella Castle with the park calm and quiet around you. Life is good.
Cinderella Castle
Yesterday, some people got to experience this exact scenario! It’s Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend in Disney World and the festivities kicked off with a sunrise yoga session in Magic Kingdom. Sounds pretty awesome, right?! Well, if you’re a morning person — if not, then you would probably rather be sleeping! But, outside of the runDisney races, not many guests get to see the park before the sun rises. So, let’s take a look at how it went!
The event kicked off at 5:30AM in front of Cinderella Castle. Yep, 5:30AM! The sun actually doesn’t rise until closer to 7AM in Orlando around this time of year, so it was dark during the hour-long session.

The cost of the event was between $95-$105 depending on when you signed up. This included the one-hour yoga session, a yoga mat with a carrying cover, bottled water, and complimentary parking at Magic Kingdom until 5AM. As you can see in the below video, the mats and water bottles were already laid out for participants when they arrived!
Cinderella Castle was all lit up and there were even a few fireworks spotted at the end of the session! What a great way to get into the zone for a weekend of racing, or just to kick off your day in the parks.
Sunrise yoga is also available on March 31st, 2022 during the runDisney Springtime Surprise weekend, and, as of this writing, it’s not sold out yet! You can register right now for $95. But, on March 1st, it goes up to $105, so do it now if you want to save $10. Stay tuned to DFB for more updates from the Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend!
