Walt Disney World has added new signs instructing guests on how to gesture to the Fab 50 statues found throughout the resort, and no longer advises “waving” at the statues to interact with them.
Disney Adds MagicBand+ Signs to Fab 50 Statues
We first spotted these signs in Magic Kingdom. They can be found next to the Fab 50 statues throughout the park.
The signs read,
MagicBand+
Make a circular gesture with your MagicBand+ to experience the magic.
A graphic of a guest making a circle while wearing their MagicBand+ is at the top of the sign. A QR code can be found at the bottom of the sign, which takes you to the Disney Fab 50 Quest on the My Disney Experience app when scanned.
Previously, guests were encouraged to wave in front of the statues to activate the sound effects related to each statue.
We also spotted these signs in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
These statues were installed as part of the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney World. In addition to their standard effects, Halloween and holiday greetings were later added in 2022. In 2023, Walt Disney World announced that the statues would remain after the end of the 50th anniversary celebration, and by the year’s end, the “50” medallions were removed from all of the statues.
Have you spotted these new signs around Walt Disney World for the Fab 50 statues? Did you ever have difficulties interacting with the statues by waving? Let us know in the comments and on social media.
