The Magic Kingdom has a big anniversary coming up in 2021 (50 years!). You can find signs of the park preparing for the special event all over. Some of the work includes new rides, some is maintenance, and some is to improve the guest experience.

Before you even enter the park you will see a lot of construction between the park entrance and the Contemporary Resort.

No announcements have been made about this construction. We will keep you posted on developments and announcements.

Recent visitors to Magic Kingdom will have noticed that the moat around Cinderella Castle has been drained. You can see there’s work being done near the Liberty Square area.



While the moat is drained they are also repainting the exterior of Tomorrowland‘s Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe.


Lastly, you can see the progress on the addition of the TRON Coaster in both Fantasyland and Tomorrowland. The TRON Coaster will be located between the two lands.


While the TRON Coaster is under construction Tomorrowland Speedway is temporarily closed, as is the Walt Disney World Railroad. An engine is “in-residence” at the Main Street Train Station for photo ops while the Railroad is closed.
