This article was in my local newspaper today.
ORLANDO, Fla. -- Disney World is launching a new program called "The Year of a Million Dreams." Starting Oct. 1, Disney cast members will be empowered to grant wishes big and small to guests -- including free dining, ticket upgrades, FastPasses, shopping sprees and opportunities to be a grand marshal at parades in Disney parks globally. Starting in January, families visiting the park will be chosen at random to stay atop Cinderella's Castle in Disney's first-ever castle suite.
Disney World is also debuting a new attraction in 2007 -- the Laugh Floor Comedy Club at Magic Kingdom, which will allow guests to joke and sing songs with animated characters from Disney-Pixar's Monsters, Inc. Also new is Finding Nemo -- The Musical, at Animal Kingdom, opening in November, and the conversion of 400 guest rooms to 192 suites, by mid-October at Disney's All-Star Music Resort.
Old favourites returning to Orlando this fall include Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, 18 parties, Sept. 15 and Oct. 31; the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival, Sept. 29-Nov. 12; ABC Super Soap Weekend, Nov. 11-12; and an outdoor art show called Festival of the Masters, Nov. 10-12 at Disney World in Orlando.
