Walt Disney World is not just every child’s dream park. It can be an ideal destination for an event. Since its inception, the Orlando-area amusement park has been a place that has made every parent’s wallet just a tad bit lighter and every child’s heart a bit more golden. Many Walt Disney Parks and Resorts also offer hundreds of thousands of square feet of great meeting space and experiences that go far beyond Mickey and Minnie Mouse. You can use some of these offerings to your advantage by sprinkling some pixie dust on your event to customize magical moments.
