No film has made dreams take flight (literally) quite as much as Walt Disney’s animated classic “Peter Pan,” which premiered on February 5, 1953. Whenever we feel like biding our cares goodbye, Peter Pan and a certain feisty fairy are always ready to whisk us and the Darling children off to Never Land on an adventure that keeps us young at heart.
You won’t have to go all the way to the second star to the right to celebrate the upcoming 65th anniversary of this classic: You’re invited to celebrate with Disney PhotoPass Service at Magic Kingdom Park February 4-10! Check out all of the ways you can celebrate with us:
February 4-10, Captain Hook and his loyal sidekick Mr. Smee will come ashore to meet you in Fantasyland intermittently from 9 a.m. – 6:15 p.m. Tick tock: Be sure to meet this duo before they head back to the Jolly Roger!

Peter Pan’s sneaky shadow is notoriously difficult to find, but the PhotoPass photographer next to the Captain Hook and Mr. Smee Character Experience is exceptionally skilled at locating it with the help of a special Magic Shot! Stop by and you just might find it in your photo.
Looking for some Magic Shots with a little extra pixie dust? Visit the photographer on the bridge next to Sleepy Hollow Refreshments to bring out your inner fairy, or have the most famous fairy of them all appear in your photo when you visit a photographer on Main Street, U.S.A.

If all of these photo opportunities have you ready to fly off to Never Land, stop by Partners Statue in front of Cinderella Castle where a photographer will have a prop you can include in your photos.
To sail home with all of your Disney PhotoPass photos and videos, purchase Memory Maker or Memory Maker One Day! Memory Maker is available for purchase online before, during or after your vacation. Memory Maker One Day is available for purchase inside Town Square Theater at Magic Kingdom Park or in the My Disney Experience mobile app during or after your visit.
Whether you celebrate with us at Magic Kingdom Park or at home, be sure to share your photos with us using #PeterPan65!
