when did disney world
Itâs rare that we post a âThis Day in Historyâ on the blog but this is something we thought youâd enjoy. On October 1, 1971, the Walt Disney World Resort officially opened, including Magic Kingdom Park, Disneyâs Contemporary Resort, Disneyâs Polynesian Resort and Disneyâs Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground. And on that day in 1971, William Windsor, Jr., was our record-breaking first guest.
