Walt Disney World is about to hit another major milestone. On October 1st, the Most Magical Place on Earth will officially celebrate its 55th anniversary.
Magic Kingdom welcomed its first guests on October 1, 1971, beginning what would eventually grow into the massive Walt Disney World Resort Disney Adults know today. Fifty-five years later, October 1st remains a special date on the Disney calendar.
