As we near the beginning of “The World’s Most Magical Celebration,” banners for Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary have appeared throughout the four theme parks. They are now being hung at hotels too, and we saw several at Disney’s Contemporary Resort.

They are the resort’s road entrance, so guests will see the banners when they drive up.

Each park has had slightly different banners to match that park’s theming. We would guess hotels will all be getting these same banners, which have plain gold on the top and bottom, and an EARidescent rainbow behind the “50”.

A few line the road past the entrance.

A large banner also hung above the main entrance to the resort.

50th-anniversary banners also greeted us as we drove into Disney’s BoardWalk Inn.

At Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, two banners greet guests at the carport.

We got a closer look at the resort banners as we walked from the parking lot to the hotel.

If you look closely, you can see the banners sparkling.

We also spotted banners at Disney’s Beach Club Resort.

Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside reopens on October 14, but its banners are currently being installed as well.

We expect to see more of these banners appear at other Walt Disney World Resort hotels in the coming weeks.
