Concept Art: Disney to Add Gold Accents to Cinderella Castle

In time for the 70th anniversary of the Disney animated classic Cinderella, and the 50th anniversary of the Walt Disney World Resort, Disney has announced that Cinderella Castle in the Magic Kingdom will get a makeover.

Here is a look at how the castle looks today:

Disney will begin work on the transformation in the next several weeks, and the work will continue through the summer of 2020.  The work will not interrupt presentations of Mickey’s Royal Friendship Faire, a show presented several times during the day in front of the castle, or Happily Ever After, the Magic Kingdom’s nighttime fireworks spectacular.
