No one does fireworks better than Disney, and as we get ready to light up the sky to celebrate the New Year, here are some interesting facts about Walt Disney World.
🎇It’s estimated to cost $18 million a year for Disney to put on their firework displays. Disney won’t release the information but that’s an estimated guess
🎇Most fireworks use gunpowder for launch, but they use compressed air
🎇 There’s no fireworks at Animal Kingdom, Disney doesn’t want to distress the animals, so keeps them far away
🎇 If there’s no rainfall over the summer, Disney will cut back on the amount of fireworks, to avoid potential wildfires
Imagine ..... Antarctica - now that really IS a bucket list adventure
Merry Christmas
