In the last year, we’ve seen a lot of “sprucing up” going on around the Walt Disney World parks, but especially in Magic Kingdom!
Cinderella Castle got a new paint job and now she’s getting additional decorations for the 50th Anniversary. We also noticed repainting happening at the parking entrance for the TTC and several classic attractions are getting golden touch-ups. Today, we spotted another place in the park where there’s some painting going on, and we took some photos to share with you!
Over in Tomorrowland, Cool Ship is a snack stand that’s home to a pretty simple array of theme park treats. We recently noticed some construction walls in this area, and now we know why — Cool Ship is getting a new paint job!
From what we could tell so far, the colors are a lot more vibrant and refreshed. Tomorrowland as a whole is an area with a lot of gray and concrete, so this pop of color will help liven the place up!
When Cool Ship is open, it typically has a small menu. Right now, the options listed online are drinks and churros…and that’s about it. However, because the options are so limited, you likely won’t have to fight the crowds here!
We’ll make sure to keep an eye on the paint job progress at Cool Ship, and we’ll let you know if any other spots in Magic Kingdom get a little extra love before the big anniversary! Stay tuned to DFB for all the latest updates from the parks!
