This week, as a nod to President’s Day, we deep-dive into the history of Walt Disney’s affinity for the highest office in the land – the president of the United States – and his desire to memorialize, in his parks, the men that have held that office for all the world to see!
Join us, won’t you, as we journey through the legacy of presidential visits to the parks before, during, and after their stints as president! We’ll then cover the history of some of the most technologically advanced attractions dedicated to the office and its legacy – Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, The Hall of Presidents, and The American Adventure!
Watch along as President Ronald Reagan visits EPCOT for his 1985 inauguration speech here:
