Learn about the 6 week long process that transforms Cinderella's Castle at the Magic Kingdom into the sparkling spectacle that it becomes for Christmas.

Over 200,000 LED lights that are attached to over 40,000 square feet of fisherman's netting are attached at night after the park is close by teams of workers with giant cranes.  It takes 18 miles of electrical cables to tie it all together.

After it is all in place then extensive testing occurs to get all of the controls programmed to be able to turn them on and off on command and sychronized with the music.

Amazingly all of these lights are operated with the same amount of electricity that it takes to power 3 clothes dryers.

If you have not seen this display in person, I can tell you that it is truly amazing.  It is a sight to behold.  Cinderella's Castle has never looked so magical before.
