PHOTOS: Storybook Circus Is Getting Ready For Smellephants on Parade!
As any Walt Disney World fan knows, the circus is always in town at the Magic Kingdom.
Since 2012, Storybook Circus has delighted visitors with kid-friendly attractions, including Dumbo the Flying Elephant, The Barnstormer, and the Casey Jr. Splash ‘n’ Soak Station.
Last year, however, Disney announced that a new interactive experience would soon be coming to the mini-land in the form of Smellephants on Parade.
Smellephants on Parade
For those who don’t remember, the family-friendly scavenger hunt will take guests on a “search and sniff” adventure throughout Storybook Circus.
While we don’t have an official opening date for Smellephants on Parade, the signs point to the new experience opening soon.
First, last month, Disney filed permits for construction at Storybook Circus. Then, last week, we reported that the ticket booths in front of Big Top Souvenirs had been removed. Perhaps in preparation for Smellephants?
The Signs Point to Smellephants
Well, I am happy to report that when visiting Storybook Circus today, we spotted new signs that Smellephants on Parade was on the way. And by signs, I mean literal signs.
In front of both Dumbo the Flying Elephants and Big Top Souvenirs, new signs have been installed reading “New Act- Debuting Soon.” Interestingly, red wooden posts have also been installed in the area. Are those smellitizers we see?
Here is a look at the scene in front of Dumbo.
And a look at Big Top Souvenirs.
Based on the fact that Disney has cleared the ground in front of Pete’s Silly Sideshow and the Big Top Souvenirs exit, it seems that these two locales will also be included in the new experience.
Stay Tuned!
