Updates Continue On Disney World Welcome Sign
Walt Disney World is pulling out all of the stops when it comes to prepping for its 50th Anniversary celebrations. Not only is Cinderella Castle getting a magical makeover (we shared some of those awesome images with you yesterday) but the signs as you enter the parks are also being re-done in the new Earidescent hue.
Our MickeyBlogger visited the theme park yesterday where you can see work currently being carried out on the main entrance sign!
Though it may be a bit difficult to tell from the sign, we are transitioning from the classic yellow background to the new blue background!
As of going to print, the Walt Disney World lettering on the sign remains untouched. However, this will ultimately be updated.
The logos will eventually be painted silver.
While the work is being carried out the pennants have also been removed from the signs. Once returned they will be an iridescent silver color.
As will the logo which hangs from the bottom of the sign which says “The Most Magical Place On Earth.”
There is also a replica of Cinderella Castle meant to sit at the center of the sign. It too will be redone in a luminous silver theme.
Though no timeline has been given for the completion of the project we do expect it to be done in time for Disney’s 50th Anniversary Celebration.
The event will officially kick off on October 1, 2021.
The celebration will run for an impressive 18 months!
Though Disney is being pretty tight-lipped about what this year’s celebration will entail we suspect it will include a new nighttime spectacular, entertainment, merchandise, food and more!
In addition to the Walt Disney World signs, the Magic Kingdom signs have also been given a makeover and you can check those out here.
The update will also impact the reverse side of the sign where similar cosmetic changes are underway!
We can’t wait to share the completed look with you!
In the meantime, here is an artist’s rendering of what the finished sign might look like!
