Duffy & Friends share a Friendship-Filled Moment to fans around the world Duffy & Friends

Duffy & Friends is making our hearts swell by sharing a Friendship-Filled Moment to fans around the world!

Duffy and Friends are a group of beloved characters that are most familiar to the Tokyo Disney Resort, Shanghai Disney Resort, Hong Kong Disneyland Resort, and Aulani A Disney Resort and Spa.

Their story is an original Walt Disney Imagineering story, and goes as such; once Mickey Mouse the sailor was going on a long sea voyage from Cape Cod. So he wouldn’t be lonely Minnie Mouse hand-sewed him a sweet teddy bear to keep him company. She gave the bear to Mickey in a duffel bag, which was the inspiration for his name “Duffy.” Along with their great and exciting adventures, Mickey and Duffy make a ton of new friends!

In this video ‘Morning Glory’ you’ll see Duffy and friends (ShellieMay, Gelatoni, StellaLous, CookieAnn, and ‘Olu Mel) plant morning glory seeds in their garden, which was a gift from Mickey! As the plants start to grow, an unexpected problem occurs. Check out the short story to see how Duffy & Friends use love, teamwork, and friendship to solve the problem!

Be a part of Duffy’s adventures by using the hashtag #DuffyandFriends on social media to share your adventures with Duffy and all his friends!

And that includes Shanghai Disneyland’s Zootopia-themed expansion! Announced in January 2019, the expansion will become the park’s eighth themed land and will also be the first land themed to Zootopia in a Disney park. And construction has reached an important milestone.

In a recent press release, Shanghai Disney Resort has shared a few images of the installation of the first steel column for the new land!

Noting that before it was installed, the “first steel column was signed by leaders and representatives from the Resort, the Administrative Commission of Shanghai International Resort, Shanghai Shendi Group, and Walt Disney Imagineering, which is responsible for the design and development of the new themed land.”

Additional milestones which have already been met include the commencement of “piling work” to strengthen the foundations of the buildings that will ultimately line the land’s streets.

Joe Schott, President and General Manager, Shanghai Disney Resort, shared the following quote: “Today’s Zootopia construction milestone brings us another step closer to the beloved Zootopia story and characters coming to life in Shanghai.”

NEWS: Guests With General Admission Tickets for Shanghai Disneyland May Now Make Advanced Reservations to Visit the Park

Shanghai Disneyland reopened to guests on May 11th. In order to limit guest capacity as part of the new health and safety measures, guests have been required to purchase dated admission tickets ahead of their visit to enter the park while Annual Passholders have been required to make a reservation.

To this point, previously purchased General Admission tickets have not been accepted. However, an update to the Disneyland Shanghai website advises guests that — starting today, June 1st, guests with General Admission tickets will be able to make a reservation to visit the park for the dates of June 3rd through June 7th.

The website also instructs guests on how to make a reservation with a list of One-Day General Admission Ticket Advanced Reservation Procedures and Requirements. Though as of today, June 1st, reservations are only available for the dates of June 3rd through June 7th, reservations will continue to become available on a six-day reservation calendar basis.

The instructions state that: “From 13:00, June 2, reservations for park visits on June 8 will be available to guests. From 13:00 every day starting June 3, we will open a six-day reservation calendar. Guests cannot make a reservation for a visit on the same date as the reservation. The reservation system will be updated at 13:00 each day, with a limited daily quota.”

Guests should also be advised that ‘the validity period of a One-Day General Admission Ticket will be extended for the number of lost days falling between the park’s closure date of January 25, 2020 and the end of the “Advanced Reservation Period.” ‘

Interested guests can learn more by visiting the Shanghai Disneyland Resort website.

It’s also worth mentioning that — while we await further details — Walt Disney World Resort plans to implement a theme park reservation system when Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom reopen to guests on July 11th, followed by EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios on July 15th.
