Cinderella Castle and more get the ‘golden’ treatment in honor of Disney World’s 50th anniversary

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. – Festivities continue at Walt Disney World ahead of Disney World’s 50th anniversary on Friday, and Local 10 News’ Jenise Fernandez is giving you an exclusive first-hand look at the festivities.

Besides Epcot, which held celebrations throughout Wednesday and into the night with a spectacular fire works show, Magic Kingdom is also partaking in the festivities to celebrate Disney’s golden anniversary.

Cinderella Castle is now decked out in gold trim and repainted with a gorgeous, rose gold color in honor of the golden anniversary.

Why the special treatment? Because Magic Kingdom is truly where the magic first began.

Magic Kingdom was the first theme park in the state of Florida when it opened on October 1, 1971. It is now the most visited theme park in the world.
