slo’s WEDNESDAY 7/16 poll - Cinderella’s Castle Through The Years

The very first time we visited WDW was when it was a giant CAKE. Silly me, I thought that's how it was supposed to look!

I deeply dislike the current pink. The Dreamlights were always my favorite look. Not that it was a year-round thing, but it was the best the castle every looked. The last time I saw them was Marathon weekend in 2020. I am still so happy I got to run into MK and see the fully Dreamlight illuminated castle as sort of my reward for all of that running. The filters won't allow me to post what I really think about Disney's awful decision not to bring them back. Sorry, but projections...while sometimes nice...look like a cheap copout compared to the castle dripping in lights.

If I were basing on photos above I might lean towards TODAY ~ except in person I don't think it looks like those colors at all. I voted Mid 90's because in my mind, those blues are the perfect Cinderella colors.

The cake was a lot of fun, I have a piece of it, but def only for temporary fun!

None of the others shine much. Keep it clean.

My first trip to WDW was in 1998, so I haven't seen some of those in person. I am not someone who is passionate about the look of the castle, I do enjoy the projections when they have them for fireworks, so I just voted for the present day version.

Loving the holiday dream lights!

I really like the 50th, though that picture includes the extra lighting. My favorite is probably actually the Happily Ever After Finale look, though it's all projection:
