PHOTOS: Another Part of Magic Kingdom Has Received a 50th Anniversary Makeover
Almost everything at Disney World is getting spruced up for the 50th Anniversary celebration, which (can you believe it?) begins in a little less than ONE MONTH!
We’re so close to the start of the 50th Anniversary Celebration!
Cinderella Castle got a HUGE makeover — complete with a new paint job, new decor, and a huge “50” sign right on the front. We’ve also seen other buildings throughout Magic Kingdom getting spiffed up — even the Prince Charming Regal Carrousel got some new golden touches! Now, something else in this park has gotten a golden upgrade.

The system is part of the new Disney Genie program that will be in the My Disney Experience app. Genie (the trip planning system) is free, but you have to pay $15 per day, per ticket to use Genie+ (the new, paid FastPass-like system). The paid system lets you select return times to use the new Lighting Lanes at rides around Disney World, which will allow you to skip the majority of the stand-by lines. We just saw a few Lightning Lane signs go up in Magic Kingdom, and now, we’ve found some in EPCOT!
