Disney World has announced they will indeed celebrate their 50th anniversary. The Florida attraction will kick off an 18-month long celebration billed “The World’s Most Magical Celebration”  beginning on October 1, 2021. According to a Disney press release, they’ve even coined a new word – “EARidescence” – to describe what you’ll see when you visit. While info is scarce at this time, Disney teams are creating all sorts of new decorations that will shimmer and sparkle all day and into the night. For families in need of a break or vacation, this may be welcome news. Keep in mind though, that plans could change or be altered in light of the ongoing pandemic.
