Cinderella Castle
The parks are gearing up for the all of the festivities, which include things like a new cavalcade, a ride opening, new character costumes, and new statues around the parks! One of the things we’re MOST excited for is the new fireworks show in Magic Kingdom for the anniversary — Disney Enchantment! And we saw the parks preparing last night as the show’s opening date quickly approaches!
