The 18th-month celebration kicks off on October 1st, and we could NOT be more excited. We’re getting special transformations to the park icons, new costumes for Mickey and Minnie, and so much more. And to put us in the celebrating spirit, Disney just released a commercial for the big day!

The commercial features the “EARidescence” that will light up all 4 park icons as it “escapes” from a 50th anniversary cabinet. Plus, there are 16 Easter eggs from classic Disney movies sprinkled throughout, like the Enchanted Rose from Beauty and the Beast. Can you spot ’em all?

We’re already seeing these transformations in progress on Cinderella Castle and Spaceship Earth — and they sure are getting us pumped for the big 5-0. We’ll keep ya in the loop with more 50th anniversary news, so stay tuned to DFB!
