Walt Disney World’s Cinderella Castle has seen many different colors and overlays over the years. Famously (or infamously) the birthday cake theme for the castle is one guests still remember vividly.
The most recent color scheme change for the castle added a pink color to the it, which was done in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Disney World. The pink, while pretty, didn’t really make sense for Cinderella Castle, since her color theme is blue. It was definitely better than the birthday cake castle though, I think most of us can agree on that. The new color palette will bring the classic look back to the castle. So expect to see cream colors, grays, deep blues, and touches of gold. See the artist rendering below.
There isn’t a timeline yet of when this will start and when it will be completed, so I’ll keep an eye out for that announcement. A paint job on a castle may not seem that important, but so many guests love getting the family pictures in front of the castle. There are always so many PhotoPass photographers stationed down Main Street U.S.A. for this reason and the new paint job, especially with those deep blues, will look great as a backdrop for a family photo.
What has been your favorite version (or least favorite version) of Cinderella Castle?

I love all things Disney, but my main love is for Disney World and I'm always planning for the next trip. Before becoming a Disney blogger, I was a radio DJ, so I guess I'm just continuing in the communication industry, just in a different form. I love talking Disney and I could talk about Disney all day. That's why I started blogging and created the Facebook group. The Disney community is full of friendly, helpful, and happy people...and I love being a part of it! If there is any Disney subject you would like to see covered just let me know! Need help planning your Disney vacation. Feel free to contact myself or Melissa at Never Stop Dreaming Travel Co. We love helping people plan their trips! Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy! Don't forget to check out our Countdown to Disney app! Feel free to email me with suggestions of things you would like to see in the app :-)
Definitely happy they are going back to the classic paint scheme. Hopefully they can start the first of january and it can be done by the time we go at the end of march!
That would be awesome if it’s done in time. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!
