Hello, DFB friends! We’re here with more of what’s new at Magic Kingdom.

Cinderella Castle

We’ve been seeing more and more 50th anniversary statues pop up, new Cinderella wreaths, and even a favorite treat return. Now we have another 50th anniversary item to share and more progress toward Disney launching the Genie+ program!

This time we have news to share about a new popcorn box and more lightning lanes added.

Magic Kingdom Food Update

In Fantasyland, we found a new 50th Anniversary popcorn box! The new boxes have images of all four Disney Parks icons, including Cinderella Castle, Tower of Terror, the Tree of Life, and Spaceship Earth.
