Magic Kingdom 50th Anniversary Plans

[SpectroBro]

Maybe the 50th has a better chance now that Josh D’Amaro is in charge of Parks, Experiences and Products. Still greatly depends on the budget he’s given however.

I was thinking the same thing.

 

[Britt Bitt]

This gets me excited! Hope it's true.

Granted, I don't have a clue how Parks Government works but is anyone else sad that Josh isn't WDW Pres. anymore??? I just got used to him with MMRR, the last night at MK and the updates he's done during COVID. Who else gives messages from inside the parks during this time??? If he can help WDW with the right 50th, I'm all for it! It just seemed he fit well with WDW.

I'm cautiously optimistic.

I hope to have a nightime parade for the 50th birthday for Walt Disney World Resort,

We just booked for the 50th. All I need for that trip to be perfect is to not have to worry about getting the virus.

Although more than a year later, I wonder what the 50th will look like in the COVID era.

If the parks are shut but builders etc can go back to work then shouldn’t it make it easier for them to work on things like Tron etc or are workmen not allowed in at the moment. In the UK construction workers are being allowed to resume work.

To be honest, just a new parade would be preferred, day or night. Not expecting both. I'm thinking it's day cause at night they'll have the castle projection fireworks show I'm sure.

Work is currently held to save money.

My expectations are still: Cupcakes. Dance parties. Merchandise. Banners.

My guess is the only chance for a nighttime parade is going to be shipping Paint The Night from Anaheim (or even MSEP again...)

Would be better than nothing. With the shakeup of those in charge, maybe there’s hope of some type of parade.

Hey, I'll take that. Never saw it before so it would be new to me.

I'm pretty sure they don't want to send MSEP out here. We'll kill it for real this time if it ends up back here again.

 

[TTA94]

I’m kinda wondering if MK will be closed to regular guests on October 1st 2021 and only open to the Media, VIPs, Etc.

Paint the Night or MSEP? PtN is a great parade definitely worth seeing, but my ideal is if they were to make a new nighttime parade that references SpectroMagic (the 90s-00s MK nighttime parade). SpectroMagic only ever played at MK, and I think, would be considered the quintessential WDW nighttime parade.

I remember SpectroMagic when I was a little kid. It was great.

We deserves a new electrical parade that takes cues from Spectromagic, like Dreamlights did for MSEP.

 

[celluloid]

Yes, the park will close early for Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party! Can't forget about those upcharges!

So excited. I already bought my MOUSEKerAID charms for my mask you guys are selling for the event!
