Disney friends preparing a magical New Year's Eve Countdown to 2006!
The excitement is mounting as Hong Kong Disneyland prepares for the first New Year's Eve countdown in the park.
Disney friends Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy and Chip and Dale get into the party spirit by helping to prepare the stage in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle for the thousands of guests expected to welcome 2006 at Hong Kong Disneyland.
The New Year's Eve Magical Countdown celebration is the culmination of Hong Kong Disneyland's month-long Magical Christmas event that began on December 1.
Roy Tan Hardy, senior vice president, marketing, Hong Kong Disneyland said: "We received an overwhelming response to our first ever Christmas event at Hong Kong Disneyland.
Visitors from around the region and Hong Kong have been celebrating the festive season with their family and friends. So far, we've had to close the park on four separate days during this month as tickets for those days were sold out."
And on December 31 from 9.30pm-1am, Hong Kong Disneyland will be transformed into a New Year's Eve party like no other for guests of all ages.
* In front of Sleeping Beauty Castle guests will swing to the enchanting tunes of Tony Carpio and his big band.
* In Fantasyland, guests will dance the night away to the sounds of the Mystery 5 band that will get the guests grooving to the sounds of reggae, R&B and soul.
* Tomorrowland features a VJ who will spin favorite toe-tappin' tunes to keep the party hopping.
The highlight of the evening is a park-wide countdown to midnight. Five large video screens placed around the park will feature live coverage of the bands at the Castle and in Fantasyland and the VJ in Tomorrowland.
Guests will want to keep their eyes focused on the screens for the final countdown as Tinkerbell helps welcome 2006.
"Hong Kong Disneyland is the place for the whole family to celebrate the welcoming of a new year. Guests should book their tickets early to join the celebration," added Hardy.
"When you combine our spectacular Disney entertainment with the popular attractions and great party enhancements, there is no better place to celebrate New Year's Eve than Hong Kong Disneyland."
Hong Kong Disneyland will also release 500 limited edition pin sets featuring Mickey Mouse in his most acclaimed films through the years. The 500 pin sets of Mickey Mouse through the years will be available from 9.30pm onwards on December 31 at Town Square Photo on Main Street USA.
