Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Officially Opens
On May 28th 2014, Disney officially opened the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, the latest addition to the Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World Resort.
The new attraction is the crown jewel of New Fantasyland, and it features just the right combination of heart, humor, and thrill to appeal to everyone in the family. The attraction has a unique new ride system that allows the mine cars to sway back and forth as guests are immersed into the world of the treasured film.
Inside the mine, Disney Imagineers put to work some newly invented audio-animatronic magic that brings to life the stars of our attraction: Doc, Sneezy, Sleepy, Grumpy, Bashful, Happy, and Dopey. Disney hopes you’ll find all seven of them to be as charming as ever!
For the grand opening of this family-friendly roller coaster, there were some very special guests — seven “Littles” and their “Bigs” from Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Florida along with Orlando Magic stars Victor Oladipo and Tobias Harris.
Below is a video of the ceremony. Enjoy!
