In 1996, Walt Disney World celebrated its 25th anniversary, inviting guests to “Remember the Magic.” Families planning their visit could order a free vacation planning VHS, offering a preview of the parks, resorts, and special anniversary celebration.

This nostalgic time capsule captured an era of expanding attractions, resort openings, and the unforgettable Cinderella Castle Cake.
A 25th Anniversary Like No Other
Walt Disney World marked its 25th year with a bold transformation of Cinderella Castle into a giant pink birthday cake, complete with 26-foot candles and candy decorations. Love it or hate it, the castle cake became one of Disney’s most iconic overlays.

The celebration also featured the Remember the Magic Parade, inviting guests to relive their favorite Disney moments while making new memories.
The VHS wasn’t just about the theme parks—it also highlighted the entire Walt Disney World experience
