The Walk Around the World Bricks at the Magic Kingdom to be retired
The commemorative personalized bricks that are spread around the Magic Kingdom and Transportation and Ticket Center entrance will soon be removed, Disney announed.
Sold in the 1990s, the hexagonal bricks were part of “Disney’s Walk Around the World” program which allowed guests to leave a message etched into a brick and then laid in the walkway. Disney committed to
Since the bricks were not designed to be removed individually, they will not be available to take home. Instead, guests who purchased a brick will be able to buy a souvenir version through Aug. 31, 2019.
Here’s how it works:
If you are going to be at the park
- Starting March 18, guests can stop by City Hall at Magic Kingdom Park or Guest Relations at Disney Springs to verify their previous brick by sharing the name and hometown of the Guest who sponsored it.
- After verification, they will be given a one-time use voucher to present by, or before Aug. 31, 2019, at Tomorrowland Light & Power Co. (at Magic Kingdom Park – separate theme park admission required) or the Marketplace Co-Op (at Disney Springs), enabling you to purchase one commemorative 6-inch brick at a special price of $10 (plus tax).
If you can’t make it to the park
- Guests should email guest.services@disneyworld.com or call 407-828-2701 with the name and hometown of the Guest who sponsored the brick.
- After verification, they will be provided a code to use by, or before Aug. 31, 2019, on shopDisney.com to purchase one commemorative 6-inch brick at a special price of $10 (plus tax and shipping) starting this spring. This code is for one-time use and will only be valid on shopDisney.com and may not be redeemed in person or at any other location. (Limit one voucher or code per verified Guest.)
If you did not sponsor a brick, you can still purchase one. A 6-inch brick ($29.99 plus tax – available now), 8-inch brick ($49.99 plus tax – available now) and an ornament ($24.99 plus tax – on sale soon), all with customization included.
These will be available at Tomorrowland Light & Power Co. at Magic Kingdom Park or the Marketplace Co-Op at Disney Springs, or on shopDisney.com starting this spring.
