But some experiences just can’t be taken for granite! Recently a group of Disneyland Resort Jungle Cruise Skippers donned their khakis for something a little out of the ordinary — a starring role in the world premiere of Disney’s “Jungle Cruise” film. “To me, every day is a red carpet when we get to do what we do,” shared Kipp Hart. “I love it here, and being part of [the premiere], it’s hard to top it.” The excitement before the premiere was palpable, especially among the skip- pers, who reopened the newly enhanced Jungle Cruise attraction earlier that month.

  • Cinderella Castle at Walt Disney World Resort Fact Sheet
    Cinderella Castle at Walt Disney World Resort Fact Sheet Description: Cinderella Castle pays homage to the beloved story and characters from Disney’s 12th full-length animated feature film, “Cinderella,” which was released in theaters in 1950. Painted in traditional colors of grey, blue, and gold, the castle represents a romantic conception of a French palace-fortress. While the base of the castle resembles a medieval fortress typifying the Romanesque architecture and castles of the 11th through 13th centuries, the upper portion of the castle reflects the stately Gothic forms that were prominent in later centuries. Opening Date: October 1, 1971 Castle Height: 189 feet (tallest structure in Magic Kingdom Park) Construction: Cinderella Castle took approximately 18 months to build and was completed in July, 1971. The castle is made of concrete, steel, cement, plaster, and fiberglass. No bricks were used in the construction. The inner castle is structural steel covered with fiberglass. The foundation is concrete filled with foam for weight conservation Cinderella’s Royal Table: A circular stairwell or a themed elevator transports guests to Cinderella’s Royal Table, the elegant restaurant located on the second level of the castle where guests can meet Cinderella and some of her princess friends. Hosts and Hostesses address younger guests as “princes” or “princesses,” while adult guests are addressed as “lords” or “ladies.” Fun facts: For inspiration, Walt Disney Imagineering researchers turned to the famous palaces of Charles Perrault’s France, still showplaces of Europe. Their design took the form of a romanticized composite of such courts as Fontainebleau, Versailles, and a dozen famed chateaux of the Loire Valley.
