Storybook Circus was part of the largest expansion in the history of the Magic Kingdom, doubling the size of Fantasyland from the original 10 acres to 21 acres following this expansion. Storybook Circus was a large part of this expansion and was inspired by the classic Disney animated film, Dumbo. The four main attractions here are Dumbo, the Flying Elephant (2 separate carousels), Goofy’s Barnstormer, Casey Jr. Splash ‘n’ Soak Station, and Pete’s Silly Sideshow, featuring special “Meet and Greets” with Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Minnie Mouse, and Goofy. Take a stroll through the world of Dumbo’s Circus, and you’ll have a most pleasant and entertaining experience. Here are seven reasons why you should include Storybook Circus as a part of your magical day at the Magic Kingdom.
