The new color scheme for Cinderella Castle (https://www.disneytouristblog.com/disney-world-announces-cinderella-castle-classic-makeover/) doesn’t have any dates whatsoever yet, and they’ve suggested that it’s still in the early stages of planning. It’s probably going to happen in 2026, but there’s no guarantee of that.

Regardless, I’d expect it to be done the same way as the last repainting, which is via cranes that lower during the daytime hours. Shouldn’t be any scaffolding.

Yes – I also chuckled at the 5 year old vs 80 year old comment and will add for Tom that 5 year olds tend to appreciate the stroller MORE than 2-3 year olds. As you are well aware, Tom, 2 year olds have lots of energy that they have a lot of trouble controlling, never really want to stop go go going until of course they are way overtired and melt down. Oh and of course the fun Houdini-act when they twist their way out of the stroller restraints while chucking their bucket hat on the ground never to be seen again. Five year olds are a little wiser (hahahahaha I just said 5 year olds were “wise”) and know they really would love someone to push them around in a stroller once in awhile, especially since in the real non-Disney part of their life there aren’t that many situations where they are going to be allowed to be in a stroller!
