Hi Kathy! I am so thrilled to be answering your question here at planDisney. You have come to the right place as Disney princesses are my specialty, and we have all been waiting a long time for a royal proclamation of when these magical makeovers will reopen! It's been a while since I've been able to share this good news, so let me dust off my magic wand over here and Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo you an answer!
Kathy, your timing could not be more perfect. The
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique is scheduled to reopen its doors for royal transformations on August 25th! The same day that you arrive at the Happiest Place on Earth! You must have a trail of pixie dust luck traveling with you all the way from Canada. Reservations are highly recommended, and while we don't quite have a date of when those will open up, the Fairy Godmother's Apprentices have told us that we can expect them in early August. Reservations will be available to book through the Disneyland App and website. This is going to be a big day for young Princesses and Princes alike, so you will want to be awake and ready to secure those spots. My best piece of advice here would be to stay tuned to the
Disney Parks Blog as well as the
@DISNEYLAND,
@DISNEYPARKS, and (of course!)
@PLANDISNEYPANEL Instagram accounts as that is where news has been breaking first!
Whether you have a dedicated Belle or Merida in your family, or a Mouseketeer who loves them all (like mine!) and will make an in-the-moment decision, there will be so much to choose from, including some new additions! To get inspired for those royal appointments, I recommend checking out the
different package offerings ahead of time. There are so many to choose from to fit all kinds of royal budgets, and each is as magical as the next. My little princess has done both The Castle Package which comes complete with the choice of gown and accessories as well as The Crown Package where she wore her own Ariel dress and one of Fairy Godmother's Apprentices made her sparkle with hairstyling, make-up, and nail polish. She felt showered in magic both times!
While some of the packages include a keepsake portrait session, you may also want to "
Capture Your Moment" with the whole family in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle after this magical transformation! Imagine a 20-minute private session with a
Disney PhotoPass photographer capturing some of those forever memories! This new offering is available to book 60 days in advance and is a great way to get everyone in the photo. I cannot wait to book one for the next time my family is in the parks!
Kathy, prepare for the royal treatment and some magic-making ahead! If you have any more questions, we are always here for you at
planDisney!
Never stop dreaming!
