I hope they are not mostly done. Several turrets are pretty faded and the one in the bottom right is only halfway painted a different shade of blue.

I love the contrast between the dark gray and the light gray, with the blue turrets. Such a striking and elegant color scheme.

More from BlogMickey. Wow. Is she a sight for sore eyes 💙🤍 https://blogmickey.com/2026/03/cinderella-castle-repainting-project-nearly-complete-at-magic-kingdom/

The pink actually looks kind of nice with the white trim.

Definitely been finding value in the ignore feature. Filter out those here in perpetual misery.

Friend of mine posted this on FB. Looks like the lower right turret on the Tomorrowland side has now been painted the darker shade of blue.

The contrast of the light gray with the darker blue turrets is so striking. And I'm glad they're keeping just enough of the gold trim to accent the castle without it being too gaudy. This is the version she deserved for the 50th.

Hope they keep some of the gold trim. It brings out the finer details of the castle and it would look nice against the white/gray.

Disneyland's used to have a smoke effect that went with the explosion projections, but I haven't seen it work in awhile and the overall experience falls a little flat without it. Part of me hopes Magic Kingdom's fixes the earthquake and moving/falling boulders effect in the finale lift hill...

I was speaking of BlogMickey, not WDWMagic.

Yup, even BlogMickey wrote in their article that the edited description could mean that nothing will be done to the finale. :rolleyes: Really is a shame to see a site that used to be a trusted news source go the route of Inside the Magic.

Seriously, it’s exhausting to be on here sometimes. When they first announced the lights in the caverns the complaint was, “That’s it?”. Then it was pointed out that they’ll be announcing more details later. And then suddenly the complaint became “They’re doing too much.” 😐

I was referring to the light-ING effects in the caverns, not lightning lol 😅 But yes I agree that it’s a great idea to have a thunder clap to tie into the name.

BTMR having a haunted backstory isn’t new. It’s been established that the mine was built on the site of an ancient burial ground, which has displeased the spirits there. I like that they’re using lighting and sound effects to tell that story better.
