This was taped on October 23 1971, and I was in the band. Played baratone, and am very proud to have been a part of something wonderful. I will be there this year, 2021 on Oct. 23 to walk the route again. Can't wait. Gives me chills.

I was in the chorus on the balcony in front of the castle that day. We were mostly local high school kids that auditioned at our schools to get in. They gave each of us books of tickets. Back then tickets were A thru to E for the better rides. I had enough tickets to come back with my parents and siblings. It was an amazing experience!

My mother and sister were driving back from Jacksonville to Clearwater. Disney World posted a soft GRAND OPENING sign. They turned off the interstate to enter on the very FIRST DAY of Walter Disney's dream come true. When they finally returned home, I hadn't expected such a joy of two telling us of Fantasyland. My mother was so touched in tears. A very tough business woman met her child. My sister and I were back in the car the next day to Disney World. What a joy to walk into Mr. Disney's vision and see his pal, Mickey Mouse, keeping all in good care just as Mr. Disney would want LEFT behind for all. Thank you for your dreams, Mr. Disney. 💖🧚🏼‍♀️

@Wig4 3 года назад

Also cool : The Magic Kingdom was CHEAP to enter in those first 5-6-7 years... The park still worked with the separate attraction coupon system. One could enter the park to enjoy sightseeing and all entertainment, with just the very cheap "general entrance" ticket, which included the transportation system, and a few "Complimentary attractions" (From which the Main Street Walt Disney story theatre, and also "If you had wings") The main parking lot had a fee of 50cent , parking at the hotels was free. Can anybody imagine this, ... Today ??? HAHA

Sadly that magic feeling is gone, wdw just doesn't have that same feeling it did in the 70s..

As an aside to a great program on this DW opening, I was also really struck by the US Steel commercial. That was a really great commercial! For me, It brought up positive thoughts and emotions on American can-do-it-iveness I hadn’t had for a long time. We need more like this showcasing and highlighting American manufacturing again. Did anyone else get the same from seeing this USS commercial? You just could never get the same thing from a commercial about Facebook or Amazon...

1:22:32 Immense happiness just radiates from this whole thing. It's simply one of the most beautiful moments. That castle always gets me chocked up. I'm 20 years old: seeing it in person can drive you to tears. It represents joy in it's purest form. It just sits there and represents the childlike wonder and imagination that many adults seem to lose as they grow old. The whole thing was just perfectly christened. It shows the ultimate dream, completed in it's most pristine form.

@hiridavidfeign 3 года назад

Just an astonishing document of NBCDisney culture circa 1971. It's so great to see the park in its earliest incarnation. So many great stars... even Jodie Foster!

I wonder if "The Grand Opening of Walt Disney World TV Special" be released on DVD. If so, it'll also feature classic retrospective TV commercials from Eastern Airlines, GAF and United States Steel. My favorite part of the TV special was Mickey Mouse waving goodbye to his TV viewers out there while he was on the balcony of Cinderella's castle right before the very next commercial break. He was also on the cover of those local TV guide magazines, not those national ones you buy at the checkout counter of the local grocery stores or supermarkets or even subscribe by mail. It brings back memories, don't you know. "The Grand Opening of Walt Disney World TV Special" was followed by "The Funny Side TV Special" (that was hosted by Gene Kelly among others) and then the local news report. Thanks for the memories!!!

@mainstreetartcorner1536 3 года назад

Since Disney only had the rights to air the special once, they probably will not release it on DVD or Disney+ sadly, which is why we wanted to make sure people were able to see it!

@albertpeterson5585 3 года назад

...and I should know, because I used to work there (former cast, travel services.) ...one other thing; U S Steel provided all the materials and assisted in the design of the utilidors and The Magic Kingdom, as well as the Contemporary Resort and Polynesian Village.

I have to say that looking at this tv special bring back so many joyful moments and memories. My first visit to the Magic Kingdom was June 4, 1972. And seeing the Magic Kingdom on this show in its original form is emotional indeed. I confess I let the tears flow (and still flowing as I type) during that iconic massive balloon release over Main Street USA. Moments like that represent the joy this park has brought to many of us for 5 decades. I wish Disney had brought back Ms Julie Andrews to WDW for the 50th since I believe she might be the only living legend from this tv special and October 1st also happens to be her birthday. She turned 36 on WDW’s opening and 86 on WDW 50th. WOW. And I still remember the first time I spotted Cinderella Castle from the monorail just after departing the transportation and ticket center 49 yrs 7 months ago as I write this. Chills indeed.

At about 29:15 it looks like Agnes Moorehead seated next to Caesar Romero. Didn’t realize she was present, but I’d heard Mr. Romero was his typically classy and friendly gentlemanly self during this time at the park. Beautifully captured performance. The mix for an outdoor performance recorded on video is quite impressive imho.

Though a little disappointed we got a few minutes of the orchestra and 10 minutes of the Country Bear Jamboree :D Any of you other old timers remember the ticket packets you bought for the rides? "A" tickets were the blah rides and the good stuff required an E ticket! If you used all your tickets you had to buy more... it was kinda like going to the county fair midway
