Did We Just Figure Out When the Cinderella Castle Repainting Will Be DONE at Magic Kingdom?

[Charlie]

We are absolutely loving having Cinderella Castle back to its iconic grey and blue. We will miss the pink, but truly nothing can beat this classic look.

But doesn’t it feel like they have been painting forever?? Even with the majority done, painting is still occurring on the castle, but we think we might have a hint at when that will change!

We just noticed that on May 10th, the show times for Mickey’s Magical Friendship Faire are changing! This show takes place in front of the castle, so it could be giving us some hints about what that means for the repainting of Cinderella Castle.


Characters at Mickey’s Friendship Faire


Currently, the show runs at the following times:

• Afternoon: 12:45, 1:55, and 3:55
• Evening: 5:25 and 6:30

However, on May 10th, the show times are changing:

• Morning: 11:10
• Afternoon: 12:30, 1:50, and 4:00
• Evening: 5:15

Mickey’s Magical Friendship Faire show


With these show times changing, specifically with a show being added in the morning, we are assuming this means the castle painting will be done by May 10th!

However, this is just our best guess, and we will make sure to update when we get official word that the painting is done. Of course, Disney has not confirmed anything, but we’re hoping the transformation will be fully complete soon!
