Stage 89 Presentation Available on YouTube
In 2024, WDWNT hosted Stage 89, an unofficial fan event that included in-person presentations and panel discussions with some of Disney’s most accomplished Imagineers who worked on the Disney-MGM Studios Theme Park. The Imagineers reunited for the first time in decades to reminisce, share untold tales from the trenches, and celebrate the 35th anniversary of their epic achievement.
All proceeds from the event were donated to Give Kids The World Village, an 89-acre, nonprofit resort in Central Florida that provides critically ill children and their families from around the world with magical week-long wish vacations at no cost.
In this hour-long Stage 89 presentation, Bob Weis & Randy Printz shared previously-untold stories of the development of Disney-MGM Studios in front of a live audience. For the first time, the full recording is available for free on our YouTube channel.
