Enjoy the sights and sounds of this amazing theme park and be sure to take a few photos in front of the iconic ! *Note: If your day gets off track from the itinerary times, simply ignore the actual times and do the attractions in the order in which they are listed.

Magic Kingdom TIP: If the kids would like to meet and at Fairytale Hall and you do not have a FastPass+ you will need to report to the Magic Kingdom at least 45 minutes prior to park opening.

After a recent renovation, there is now a play area for this ride where you can receive a pager that holds your place in line, allowing the kids to play if the wait times are long. We don’t expect this to be the case when you arrive, so we suggest bypassing the play area and proceeding directly through to the remainder of the queue.

The Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade is an exciting tribute to New Fantasyland that will dazzle its way down the streets of Magic Kingdom Park! The parade usually begins in (near ) and ends on Main Street, USA (at times they reverse the route). We recommend grabbing a spot in Liberty Square or Frontierland as viewing areas in front of Cinderella Castle are often packed with spectators. Additionally, many of the choreographed sequences tire out the performers so it is best to try and catch

it toward the beginning. Great viewing areas can be found on the elevated wooden platforms in front of the Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade, Frontier Trading Post, and the building with the sign reading Frontier Mercantile. Regardless of where you view it, you will need to grab a seat early unless you wish to stand. There is usually only one performance per day you will want to secure a viewing area 30-45 minutes early.

4:34pm - The Magic Carpets of (15) - Why don’t you come along with Aladdin on a magic carpet ride!? As you fly high over Agrabah be sure to watch out for the camel- he spits!

7:37pm - (28) - This hilarious hoedown features 18 animatronic bears performing in a musical revue that celebrates America’s country-western heritage. Fun fact: Country Bear Jamboree is one of the very last attractions that Walt Disney himself personally helped develop.

7:57pm - (35) - Enter your doom buggy and tour a Haunted Mansion full of 999 (mostly) friendly spooks! *Note: Though this ride is considered child-friendly, it is very dark inside- if the kids are easily frightened we suggest you skip this attraction. There is no gore, but some of the subject matter is mildly frightening.

8:23pm - it’s a small world (41) - Disney’s soothing ride through all 7 continents is a personal favorite! There is just something about this nostalgic ride that never disappoints us! Its immense popularity has led it to be re- created in every Disney Resort around the world! One guarantee- you will probably be singing the song for the rest of the day!

8:45pm - Main Street Electrical Parade (start time 9:00pm) - The evening spectacle of glowing, spinning floats is synchronized to a memorable soundtrack called the Baroque Hoedown. The parade begins on Main Street, USA and ends in Frontierland (at times they reverse the route). Because viewing areas in front of Cinderella Castle are often packed with spectators, we recommend grabbing a spot in Liberty Square or Frontierland. If the parade begins on Main Street try to grab a seat outside the Sleepy Hollow snack and beverage shop. You can also try the elevated wooden platforms in front of the Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade, Frontier Trading Post, and the building with the sign reading Frontier Mercantile. Regardless of where you view it, you will need to grab a seat early unless you wish to stand.

9:30pm - Celebrate the Magic and Wishes Nighttime Spectacular- First witness a 10-minute spellbinding show that traces the longstanding legacy of Disney storytelling and imagination with a projection show that magically transforms Cinderella Castle! Following this magical show Jiminy Cricket narrates the amazing fireworks display that celebrates the power of believing. If you want a less crowded viewing area we recommend watching from the end of Main Street between the Plaza Restaurant and . Viewing in front of the castle is always magical, but requires having someone claim a spot at least an hour or more prior to the shows. If you choose to go near the castle keep the Partners statue in front of you so that you have good view of the entire expanse of fireworks. Another spot is along the fence between Crystal

Palace Restaurant and Casey's Corner. Though it is slightly off center, this location is a hidden gem for viewing! Note: If you have purchased Glow With the Show ears be sure to bring them along!
