Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary is getting close!
Cinderella Castle
The big day is October 1st, 2021 — that’s in just a few months! We already have lots to look forward to in the parks: new attractions like Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, a new nighttime show, and even a new restaurant! But with the anniversary getting close, many wondered if there was anything extra special in the works. And now we have some answers!
To celebrate Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary, the parks will host “The World’s Most Magical Celebration”! The event will start on October 1st and continue for 18 months.

And of course, our favorite two mice will get brand-new looks for the event! Mickey and Minnie will both show off new EAR-idescent costumes with gold highlights. They’re lookin’ pretty fancy, right? Minnie’s gold bow even matches Cinderella Castle!

When will Minnie‘a clothes be available to shop for? Will Mickey and Minnie still wear their trademark clothes?
Sandy, we are keeping our eyes peeled for 50th anniversary merch, so we’ll report when we see it. As for the mice wearing their trademark looks: we’ll have to wait and see. It may be that they wear the new outfits in certain locations (Magic Kingdom, for example) instead of their standard outfits.
They look beautiful
I’ve now recently moved to Florida and can’t wait to get so involved with Disney I was born and raised in California or Disneyland was the thing to do I’m collecting the popcorn buckets and I don’t know what the secret is to get there when they have them do you promote them before they come out do you tell us as soon as they come out I was just like to know the story behind so I don’t have to miss out on another popcorn bucket and are they still for season pass holders or can anybody buy them
