Hong Kong Disneyland Resort (HKDL) will open the Castle of Magical Dreams on 21 November to celebrate its 15th anniversary.

Inspired by 13 stories of Disney princesses and queens, the Castle of Magical Dreams comprises many towers and spires featuring iconic patterns, textures, colours and ornamentation unique to each character's story.

It's the first time in Disney history that an existing castle has undergone a grand transformation. To mark the occasion, guests can visit the “Building a Dream: The Magic Behind a Disney Castle” exhibition, and embark on a visual journey that goes behind the magic, discovering the Walt Disney Imagineering process of reimagining the beloved castle, and gaining insights into the transformation from concept and design development, to the innovative building techniques, interpretation of the Disney princesses and queens’ stories in partnership with Walt Disney Animation Studios and Pixar Animation Studios, and upcoming entertainment offerings.

From 21 November onwards, a special “Glimpse into the Magic” tour of the Castle of Magical Dreams will be available to guests, allowing them to venture through the castle while being guided by an audio narration from actress Karena Lam.

"It’s a very immersive tour which allows guests to appreciate the architectural designs of the towers, turrets, domes, spires and finials, and see how their various colours, icons, patterns, and cultural features were inspired by the princesses and queens," Lam explained.

To celebrate the opening, HKDL will launch a 15-day countdown to the 15th anniversary celebration from 6 November on the Hong Kong Disneyland Resort official website. This virtual countdown will also feature on the resort’s Instagram account.
