Disney discusses what goes into such a massive wish-granting event happening over two days and being an integral partner to Make-A-Wish.
Walt Disney World is currently hosting one of its largest Make-A-Wish events ever, the Once Upon A Wish Party.
Nearly 50 Make-A-Wish families are taking part in the two-day adventure that took more than 500 cast members to bring to life.
“It’s an incredible feeling to be a part of a company with a long legacy of giving back and making a difference,” Tajiana Ancora-Brown, the director of external affairs at Walt Disney World, told FOX Business.
Pictures of the arrival day show the guests, all girls, being fitted in princess gowns and meeting some of their favorite Disney characters following a red-carpet arrival.

They then got to have a pajama party with some of Disney’s beloved characters and watch a fireworks show.
Wish kids are spending Tuesday meeting characters prior to their makeover session ahead of the Royal Ball, where they will officially be crowned Disney royalty.
