The time for the opening of the new Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is getting closer and closer! Although we don’t have an opening day for the public yet, we do have info on the Media events that are coming. Certain media outlets will be visiting the Magic Kingdom Park on May 1 and 2, 2014 to learn more about what’s happening at the Walt Disney World Resort, including MyMagic+ and new Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. Due to their visit, some attractions and areas will either close early or have a delayed opening. If you are visiting the MK on those dates, here is some updated information that you may need to know:
