Today is a big day at Walt Disney World. Cool Kids Summer officially kicks off and it brought a lot with it.
Here is what launched today across the resort: Jessie’s Roundup at Magic Kingdom’s Diamond Horseshoe, where Woody, Jessie, and Bullseye host an interactive western hoedown for families. Bluey’s Wild World at Animal Kingdom’s Conservation Station, where families ride the Wildlife Express Train and play games straight from the show with Bluey and Bingo. Disney Jr. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Live at Hollywood Studios, a brand new 20-minute stage show where Mickey and Minnie throw a party and the whole audience gets involved. And a completely new version of Soarin’ that takes guests on an airborne journey across America.
On top of the entertainment, Disney Resort hotel guests get free water park admission on check-in day, and select resorts are offering poolside DJ parties and campfire sing-alongs on summer evenings.
This is one of the strongest summer lineups Walt Disney World has put together. If your family has been thinking about a Disney trip, now is a great time to reach out and start planning before the summer fills up.
Which of today’s new experiences would your family head to first?
