Commemorate One More Disney Day with Disney Parks Merchandise

I’m looking forward to celebrating One More Disney Day on February 29. I plan to be in Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World Resort that morning for this unique celebration. My fellow Disney Parks Blog author Erin Glover recently told you about a special ear hat being distributed that day at Disneyland park. Disney Theme Park Merchandise has created a few additional retail items to commemorate Leap Day 2012.

I think Disney ear hats are the quintessential souvenir from Disney Parks (everyone I know has one!). I still have my mouse ears from my first visit in July 1983. We are offering special embroidery on a classic black ear hat to celebrate One More Disney Day. These embroidered hats will be offered for sale at The Chapeau, Curtain Call Collectibles, and Sir Mickey’s at Magic Kingdom Park in Florida, and at the Mad Hatter shop in Disneyland park.

Artist Jeff Granito designed a playful logo that will be used on shirts for women, men and kids. The logo will also be found on a zipper fleece jacket created only for Disneyland Resort. The nice part is that these apparel items will also be sold via the Disney Parks Online Store from February 29 through March 1. Some of you may recall that we did a similar thing for the 40th Anniversary of Walt Disney World Resort last October.

The Leap Day logo will also be found on an artisan watch that will be offered at New Century Jewelry in Disneyland park and Uptown Jewelers at Magic Kingdom Park in Florida.

Lastly (and probably my favorite), there will be delicious cupcakes, caramel apples and cake pops with the Leap Day logo being offered at both parks. You know what I will be eating on February 29.

OK, I kept hoping that dh would surprise me and tell me he bought me a plane ticket and was sending me down for One More Day. I guess since it starts in 13 hours I need to give up the dream. :'( I can't believe how upset I am over this!! I truly feel a sense of entitlement to be there since it's my birthday.

I know, the sun doesn't shine out my arse. Or does it?????? :tounge-smiley:

One More Disney Day Kicks Off at Magic Kingdom Park

posted on February 29th, 2012 by Jennifer Fickley-Baker, Social Media Manager

“Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the Magic Kingdom where today we celebrate One More Disney Day!”


gir558932LARGE.jpg

This was the welcome that the Mayor of Main Street, U.S.A., gave to the crowd of excited guests who gathered at the front of the park at 6 a.m. today to kick off the One More Disney Day 24-hour celebration.

Just minutes later, thousands of guests poured into the park to begin their full day of fun. So far, we’ve seen Mickey and Minnie in pajamas, guests celebrating special Leap Year birthdays, a couple who will attempt to visit both Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resorts in the next 24 hours!

Check out the photo gallery below for a look at today’s festivities.

I don't get it. What's to report?

The only thing different is that MK opened 3 hours earlier and that it will be open 3 hours later than they ever have been. The rest is the same old, same old.

Oh wait, they're giving out special buttons, selling special T shirts, and Mickey ears.

Oops, forgot the special cup cakes.
