Hi there Ashleigh, and a very warm welcome to planDisney from one Canadian to another!
I'm so glad that you've come here to ask about your upcoming trip to visit the Walt Disney World Resort next month; there's nothing like dreaming of the sunny skies over Florida while there's still snow and slush on the ground in Ontario. You'll be here soon enough, and it's great to hear that you intend to try and incorporate some makeover magic on this vacation with a special transformation through
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Magic Kingdom Park!
Now as you can imagine, this is an incredibly popular experience. The
Fairy Godmother's Apprentices do an amazing job of making each and every person feel like royalty and sparkle (even literally) as they admire their transformations in the mirror - but even their team can only make magic for an estimated 300 lucky children each day out of the thousands visiting Magic Kingdom Park on a daily basis. Here are some of my
Princely Picks, Tips and Tricks for snagging one of these coveted spots:
- You can find the Booking Calendar via the Enchanting Extras Collection with dates currently extending two months in advance. For this experience you'll likely find little to no availability unless you book 60 days ahead; many families try to refresh these pages online constantly in case of cancellations leading up to their trip. (I've had some luck with this in the past as folks cancel 24 hours ahead of their booking to avoid paying a cancellation fee).
- Another method that you can use is by calling the Enchanted Extras Collection line directly to speak with a Cast Member to verify availability.
- I would personally recommend heading directly to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique first thing in the morning to see whether there is any walk-up availability, and it may be worth checking if you're around the day before in the event that they've been notified about any upcoming cancellations.
From what I've seen, there's been a lot of excitement for much for diverse looks this year including a new
Disney Encanto Package that may make your little one feel like one of the Madrigals! (If you want a little sprinkle of magic for yourself, the friendly Cast Members at
Sir Mickey's just across the way have been known to bestow a little pinch of Pixie Dust to help you sparkle throughout your day.)
Feel free to come back to planDisney to
ask any more questions from your very own Canadian Disney Prince about any of your upcoming adventures to Disney Destinations.
Hoping that you and your family have a totally transformative trip next month!
Prince
