Well, hello there, William! I have started seeing Ray light up Facebook as people share pictures of the latest
Annual Passholder magnet. I am so excited that you will be at
Walt Disney World Resort soon, in time to add this most adorable insect to your magnet collection.
You know, Charlotte’s fairytale book said, "If you make a wish on the evening star, it’s sure to come true.” I call my wishing star "Ma Belle Evangeline," and she will light your way to the
Creations Shop inside
EPCOT. Passholder magnet pickup is available now through February 28 or while supplies last during normal park operating hours. Usually, bright yellow sandwich board signs help direct you to the exact location. Be sure to have your
MagicBand+,
Disney MagicMobile or Key to the World card and picture identification for Cast Members to scan and verify it's you.
Bonus for your trip: I just checked the
Theme Park Reservations availability calendar, and it looks like January 22 and 23 are "Good to Go" days! No theme park reservations are required. This means that on these mornings, at 7 a.m., you can try to join a
Virtual Queue from any theme park. Want to jump through time and space to save the universe? You can select EPCOT and
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. If you want to hop over to
Magic Kingdom Park and show Ray his and his beloved Evangeline's stars on the water tower, you can try to get a Boarding Group for
Tiana's Bayou Adventure. I'll be wishing upon Evangeline that your magnet and Virtual Queue dreams come true.
Whether you call Ray a "lightning bug" or a "firefly," you can easily call him YOURS after a quick stop at Creations Shop. And I hope you now know exactly where you're going. You're getting closer, closer, every day!
You're almost there!
