‘Disney’s Walk Around the World’ Bricks Near Transportation and Ticket Center to be Retired

‘Disney’s Walk Around the World’ bricks taken out

Walt Disney World is continuing the improvement of the Transportation and Tickets Center by adding more security lines, metal detectors as well as reconfiguring walkways, and tram loading and unloading zones.  Unfortunately this does come at a cost.  The iconic ‘Disney Walk Around the World’ bricks located near the TTC will be removed.

What are the ‘Disney Walk Around the World’ bricks?  If you are not familiar, these are the personalized commemorative bricks that are located around the Magic Kingdom entrance as well as the other locations near the theme park.  These bricks were originally sold from Summer 2000 to when they sold out a few years later.  Along with the purchase came the guarantee that they would be displayed till at least 2011.  The time has come where they need to be removed.  Unfortunately due to the nature of the construction they cannot be saved and will be destroyed.  Disney has come up with a way for you to save your memory and have a new souvenir brick created for your own home.

Beginning today guests who previously purchased a brick may buy a commemorative version between now and Aug. 31, 2019, or while supplies last.  These bricks will come at a discounted rate of just $10 (plus tax).
