Disney World is FINALLY starting its reopening phases on July 11th, and the world couldn’t be more giddy! They are READY for their Disney.

Things are going to look different for awhile at the parks. We know they are requiring face masks, they aren’t having anything that draws a big crowds — like fireworks or big parades, and they aren’t doing character meet-and-greets.

So what WILL Disney have to bring the magic? It wouldn’t be Disney World, if you didn’t see characters, AMIRITE?!? Disney has had to get creative with the way they bring the characters to the guests.

Here is what we know:

According to Good Morning America, each park is going to have its own special magic.

The Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom are going to be the first two parks to open on July 11th.

There will be a Princess Processional through the streets of Magic Kingdom, lead by Merida on her horse, Angus. There will also be a float behind Merida, carrying Cinderella, Bell, Rapunzel, Tiana, Jasmine, and Snow White. It’s not a full-on parade, but you will still get to see the princesses.

If you are patient, and make a wish upon that star, you may see Mickey and his Pals on the parade route throughout the day, reminding guests to “Get Their Ears On.” It wouldn’t be Disney, without seeing the Fab Five, AMIRITE?!?

On July 15th, Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios will reopen — side note: my favorite parks!!

Epcot

Along the route of The World Showcase in Epcot, you may run into one of the Fab Five. You can’t stop for pictures with your favorite character, but you can tell them ‘Hello‘ with a wave.
