Walt Disney World Preview Center | DISNEY THIS DAY | January 10, 1970

On this day in 1970, the Walt Disney World Preview Center opened in Florida, almost two years before the Resort itself would open. The Preview Center would act a first tour of the new “Vacation Kingdom of the World” for over one million guests, 5,000 of which visited on opening weekend. It offered an in-depth look at the “Florida Project,” including scaled models, artist renderings, and continually updated construction photos.
