A Year-Long Celebration Begins!

Get ready to join the festivities as Hong Kong Disneyland Resort (HKDL) marks two decades of magic with its spectacular celebration, "The Most Magical Party of All!" Since its grand opening in 2005, this enchanting destination has captured the hearts of both locals and globetrotters, seamlessly fusing Disney wonder with the vibrant culture of Hong Kong.

A Jewel in Hong Kong's Tourism Crown

Hong Kong Disneyland isn’t just a theme park; it’s a vital cornerstone of the city’s tourism sector. Drawing millions of visitors annually from mainland China, Southeast Asia, and beyond, it remains a cherished spot for families creating unforgettable memories together.

The Spark of an Idea: Origins of HKDL

The dream of Hong Kong Disneyland took flight in 1999, paving the way for Disney’s expansion into China as its first theme park. Strategically nestled within a five-hour flight from half the world's population, Hong Kong was the perfect host for this magical adventure. To ensure good fortune in its design, Disney solicited the wisdom of a feng shui master during its planning stages.

A Magical Launch and Expanding Dreams

When HKDL opened its doors in 2005, it welcomed guests with four whimsical lands: Main Street, U.S.A., Fantasyland, Adventureland, and Tomorrowland, along with two delightful hotels. Over the years, the park has expanded its offerings with exclusive attractions like Toy Story Land, Grizzly Gulch, and Mystic Point, captivating guests with thrilling rides and immersive experiences.

A New Era: The Castle of Magical Dreams

As the 15th anniversary approached, the resort unveiled the breathtaking Castle of Magical Dreams, a stunning tribute to Disney princesses that encapsulates elements from Chinese, European, and Southeast Asian cultures. This beautiful structure symbolizes hope and courage, marking a transformational moment for the park.

Unveiling the World of Frozen!

In 2023, to celebrate 100 years of Disney, HKDL introduced its first-ever bronze statue of Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse. Guests were also invited to step into the fantastical realm of the World of Frozen, where the enchanting kingdom of Arendelle comes to life, allowing fans to meet their favorite characters in a carefully crafted environment.

Community Magic: Making Wishes Come True

Beyond the joy it brings to visitors, HKDL also enriches the lives of local children facing health challenges. Just a month after the debut of the World of Frozen, the resort granted its first wish, showcasing its commitment to creating magical moments for those in need.

Mark your calendars for September 12, when the resort officially turns 20. Everyone is invited to partake in "The Most Magical Party of All," filled with new entertainment, exclusive anniversary merchandise, and dazzling new character outfits.
