Disney World Releases First Commercial To Feature NEW 50th Anniversary Anthem
How exciting is this!? You know we are getting close to Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration when Disney releases a commercial celebrating the upcoming event.
Earlier today, the House of Mouse gave fans a first glimpse at their new commercial. Let’s take a look:
This new ad is definitely giving us those 50th Anniversary vibes! The official blurb for the spot says,
“Throughout the shimmering EARidescent celebration, our Cast will be sharing magic across our world, ready to create unforgettable memories that last a lifetime. So come celebrate the small stuff. The big stuff. And all the in-between stuff. Get ready for a celebration 50 years in the making. It’s the Walt Disney World® Resort 50th Anniversary. Because when you celebrate with us, nothing could be more magical.”
There’s also something extra special about this commercial. It marks the first time that we’ve heard Disney World’s new 50th Anniversary anthem.
This brand new song titled “The Magic is Calling” will become all to familiar over the next 18 months. Platinum selling songwriter Alana Da Fonseca and Nashville-based songwriter/producer Bobby Studley are the creative forces behind the new them song along with award-winning composer Emily Bear. The song is performed by Journi.

A few months ago when we first reported on this new musical number, Disney said that fans would begin to hear the song in a variety of ways. It was designed to connect all four parks and different arrangements of the tune will be heard across each of the locations.
You’ll hear the song during Mickey’s Celebration Cavalcade beginning on October 1st and custom arrangements of the song performed by everyone from the Dapper Dans to the Discovery Island Drummers. But, you heard it here first!
