Disneyland's 50th anniversary
was officially July 17, 2005, but the celebration was launched on
May 5, 2005 in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle.
Morgan and extensive crew, covered the theme park to accommodate the
myriad of events celebration “The Happiest Homecoming on Earth.” The
ceremony began with a dedication from then-Disney CEO Michael Eisner
and included fireworks, speeches from Julie Andrews - the official
ambassador for the 50th anniversary celebrations, Art Linkletter and
musical performances by Christina Aguilera and LeAnn Rimes. A video
conference featured celebrities at the Magic Kingdom (the only live
video conference), Tokyo Disneyland, Disneyland Paris and the
construction site of Hong Kong Disneyland.
Before the ceremony, a media presentation was held in Disney's
California Adventure by Disneyland Resort president Matt Ouimet.
