"Disney's Night Kingdom" Coming In 2011?

This has shaped up as a big week of Disney theme park news here on the blog, but (apparently) when it rains, it pours: today, Jim Hill has the scoop on the forthcoming fifth theme park that will open at Disney World in Orlando: "Disney's Night Kingdom."

Disney's Night Kingdom's operating hours will be 4 p.m. to midnight (5 p.m. to 1 a.m. during daylight savings time).

Okay. I know. DNK already sounds unlike any Disney theme park that's currently operating on the planet. But there's a reason for that. The Imagineers want your Disney's Night Kingdom experience to be distinctly different. Something that you'll remember for the rest of your life.

How so? Well, let's first start with the extraordinary guest service that you'll experience as you enter DNK. Current plans call for Disney's Night Kingdom to be staffed by 4000 cast members. That means that -- for every guest that visits this theme park -- there'll be two cast members to take care of their every need. So expect to receive a lot of personalized attention & pampering once you arrive on site.

Price? $520 million. Slated for 2011. Fingers crossed!
