Walt Disney World's 50th anniversary is here, and guests are packing into a sold-out Magic Kingdom today to celebrate.
The main entrance opened to a capacity crowd just before 6:30am, with guests quickly heading to Cinderella Castle for a welcome moment at 7:55am.
Special merchandise offerings at Storybook Circus were handled by a virtual queue, which quickly reached capacity within an hour of the park opening to guests.
Mickey and Minnie opened the park with a brief new 3.5 minute version of the Magic Kingdom welcome show.
Watch the video below for a quick look at the new welcome show.
