For more than six months now, we’ve been working with our friends at Walt Disney Imagineering to bring you regular behind-the scenes looks at the New Fantasyland expansion in our “All in the Details” weekly series.
In case you’re new to the Disney Parks Blog, the New Fantasyland area at Magic Kingdom Park will bring the stories of “Dumbo,” “The Little Mermaid,” “Beauty and The Beast,” “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” and more, to life when it grand opens on December 6.
