Nineteen awesome new and limited-timed experiences are coming to Walt Disney World in 2019!

Starting Jan. 18, 2019 and continuing well into the year, Walt Disney World will unveil brand new shows, entertainment offerings, parties and more to delight guests.

“Whether you grew up with Mickey and Minnie, ‘The Lion King,’ ‘Cars’ or another classic story, you are going to love what all four of our theme parks have to offer in the coming year,” said George A. Kalogridis, president of Walt Disney World Resort. “This will be a year when the entire family can re-live those memories, plus make new ones together – right here in the world’s premier family vacation destination … the place where dreams come true.”

Check out the breakdown, park-by-park of all the new experiences coming in 2019 below:

Magic Kingdom

To celebrate their 90th birthday, and because they are the True Originals, Mickey and Minnie will host “Mickey & Minnie’s Surprise Celebration” in Magic Kingdom Park, starting Jan. 18.

This surprise celebration will feature new entertainment, as well as food and merchandise offerings throughout the park, including an update to the current “Move It, Shake It” parade.  Joining Mickey and Minnie in all the fun will be a few of their Disney friends, including Donald, Daisy, Goofy, Pluto, Max, Chip ‘n Dale, and more.

The current “Move It, Shake It” will become the “Move It! Shake It! MousekeDance It! Street Party.” This new parade will invite guests to dance with Mickey, Minnie and their friends in front of Cinderella Castle. It will also feature live singers performing new arrangements of classic “Mickey Mouse Club” songs.

As for other entertainment offerings during the event, the Dapper Dans, the Casey’s Corner Piano Player and other performers on Main Street, U.S.A. at Magic Kingdom will sing songs in honor of Mickey and Minnie.

Since this is a surprise celebration, keep an eye out for even more Limited-Time Magic entertainment and other experiences yet to be announced!

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

The Incredibles are returning to Disney’s Hollywood Studios!

On Jan. 18, Pixar Place will transform into a new Incredibles-themed area, modeled after a Metroville city block. At the end of the block, a party will be held in honor of Mr. Incredible, Mrs. Incredible, and Frozone to celebrate their heroic deeds. But keep an eye out in Pixar Place for the youngest Incredible, Jack-Jack, who’s gotten loose in the area!
