EPCOT
October marks the beginning of Disney World’s 18-month long 50th Anniversary celebrations! There will be new fireworks, new shows, new merchandise, and so much more. And now it seems like guests will have a little extra time to some of those things and more specifically over at EPCOT once October begins!
Haven’t you heard? This year is Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary!
Cinderella Castle
The parks are celebrating with transformations of icons like Cinderella Castle and Spaceship Earth. Mickey and Minnie will even get brand-new costumes! And don’t worry — you’ll get to take a taste of the party home with you, too! Because Disney’s releasing a WHOLE bunch of gear to commemorate the big 5-0.
