in Disney, Entertainment, Walt Disney World

The classic Dumbo the Flying Elephant ride has doubled in size at the Magic Kingdom as Walt Disney World soft opened the attraction’s second carousel, spinning opposite the first which debuted just three months ago.

When the new Dumbo first premiered in March, Magic Kingdom guests were treated to an all-new look for the iconic Disney ride, adorned in shades of gold and vibrant red and blue and featuring an array of water fountains that light up in a rainbow of colors at night. Timothy Mouse has also returned to the ride, now twirling atop the attraction marquee.
