🏴‍☠️Pirates of the Caribbean opened at Florida’s Magic Kingdom on 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟱, 𝟭𝟵𝟳𝟯, marking one of the park’s earliest significant expansions following its 1971 grand opening. Despite initial reluctance from Imagineers to replicate the attraction from Disneyland, overwhelming requests eventually persuaded them to relent and grant the public their desire for the immersive pirate experience. 😃

Don't miss the final days of Winter Wonder Walk this week at the Adventure Center of Asheville!

This family-friendly experience is a live-action immersive story-walk on an outdoor trail complete with live characters, lights, and a quest through the kingdom of Winterland.

After the walk, you can shop locally for all your holiday needs, climb a ropes course amongst thousands of glow lights, take on the Snow Sprites in a snowball fight, meet Mrs. Claus and make crafts in her kitchen, and enjoy sweet treats and hot eats.

Every ticket purchased donates 4 meals to MANNA, and makes for a wonderful way to support our mission during this holiday season.

The Winter Wonder Walk will be presented on December 27, 28, 29, and 30th from 6:00pm -8:30pm.
