World of Disney will have complimentary bags for its big reveal

To celebrate the grand re-opening of the World of Disney at Disney Springs this Saturday, Oct. 27, the store is planning on giving away a complimentary reusable bag to guests who make a purchase between 10 a.m. and noon.

We expect that when the store opens at 9:30 a.m. there will be balloons, cupcakes and a few other surprises for those who come to see the store at Walt Disney World.

The reusable bags are part of the Walt Disney Co.’s effort to reduce the use of plastic worldwide. By the middle of 2019, the Disney theme parks will replace plastic straws with paper straws. Over the next few years, all Disney hotels and cruise ships will help further reduce plastics by transitioning to the refillable in-room amenities by 80 percent. It will also mean those plastic cups, plates and utensils at some of the Disney Vacation Club resorts may be gone as well.

In addition, Disney is planning to eliminate polystyrene cups across our the world at all owned and operated businesses.
