Overview
- Work begins in early January 2026 with the castle moat drained to allow high-reach cranes and lifts.
- Construction equipment will be visible in the mornings, then lowered out of sight by midday, with guests encouraged to take photos in the afternoon and evening.
- Temporary tweaks to Let the Magic Begin, Mickey’s Magical Friendship Faire, and Happily Ever After will take effect on January 28.
- The refresh restores a classic-inspired palette of grays, creams, blues, and gold accents in place of the 50th-anniversary pink look.
- Disney expects the project to finish later in 2026, with no specific debut date announced.
