    My family is coming to Disney in the week of June 12 for sons bday. His favorite current character is Buzz Lightyear. Opening night for Lightyear is on the 17th. Will there be a special screening in/ at DisneyWorld? How can we see Lightyear at Disney World

    Greetings, Taylrlor!

    Welcome to planDisney, the most magical place in the galaxy. I am Ariane, and I come in peace. Wow, Taylrlor, your magical vacation is coming so soon! Can you believe that in just a few weeks, you will be at the Walt Disney World Resort, enjoying Andy's backyard and all the magic it has to offer? I am so excited for your family to create magical memories that will last a lifetime, and I am honoured that I get to help you today!

    Let's talk about where your son will be able to watch his favourite spaceman! The best way to watch Buzz Lightyear when it comes out would be to get tickets at the AMC Theatre at Disney Springs. I have been able to watch many movies at this movie theatre, and there is something especially magical about watching a new Disney movie for the first time at Disney. The best part is that you will be surrounded by entertainment and great restaurants should you choose to get to Disney Springs early! To purchase tickets, simply visit the AMC Theatres website or go to the ticketing window at the front of the theatre. 

    Now, spending your birthday at the Walt Disney World Resort is the best way to celebrate, in my opinion. For that reason, I thought I would share a few things that can make your son's birthday extra magical! First, no birthday celebration is complete without a "Happy Birthday" button! These complimentary buttons can be found at most merchandise locations, the front desk of your Resort, and Guest Relations locations, and they let other Guests and Cast Members join in on the celebration! Then, you must make a theme park reservation for either Magic Kingdom Park or Disney's Hollywood Studios! Andy's backyard is incredible, but I believe that a ride on Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin is necessary. Lastly, as Rapunzel told me on my birthday, you must have cake! Therefore, I recommend stopping by the Main Street Confectionery for dessert or Amorette's Patisserie at Disney Springs. Amorette's often has themed desserts based on the season or special events, so I would check if they have anything for the new Buzz Lightyear movie! Otherwise, you could even pre-order specialty cake from Amorette's and choose among the six themed character designs. 

    I hope this was helpful, Taylrlor, and that you and your little space ranger will have the best day ever on your next Disney vacation. If you have any other questions in the time leading up to your trip, please don't hesitate to reach out. You've got a friend in us here at planDisney!

    To infinity and beyond!
